Review at Dear Author

I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Acting on Impulse by Mia Sosa. The story lost a little of its charm for me by the end, but I loved the beginning and enjoyed a lot about it.

I’m over at Dear Author with a review of The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang. It took me a couple of chapters to get into but the rest of the book blew me away.

Monthly Mini Review

Act Like It by Lucy Parker – A- I admit I was far too late to the party on this book. However, just because I was late doesn’t mean I can’t celebrate.

I’ve read a review recently which indicated that some of the theatre stuff depicted in the book isn’t accurate but as I have no idea how theatre works it wasn’t at all a barrier for me. I am a big fan of witty banter and I loved what I got in Pretty Face. And I found more of the same here (even though Act Like It was written first). Grumpy heroes are also made of win for me and the fake relationship trope is a modern kind of marriage of convenience and I am so here for it.

I enjoyed the humour of the book, not just evident in the dialogue. Lucy Parker’s sense of humour and mine obviously mesh well. (Clearly we are meant to be BFFs. Sadly she lives in New Zealand and we have only “met” on Twitter.)
