About Me

Hi, I'm Suzanne. Proofreader by day, book blogger by night, devourer of books 24/7. My reading tastes: Basically you name it, I probably like it. I read a lot of contemporary and historical, both adult and YA, and I've also been enjoying more and more fantasy lately. Hobbies include: buying and hoarding of books, rambling about books to anyone who will listen, and trying to recommend books to my family and friends whether they are readers or not - because seriously, how can you not love to read books?

Danica “Dani” Pierce has no interest in love, as experience has shown it to be nothing but a source of heartache. She is solely focused on her career, specifically on making partner at her law firm. She can’t believe her luck when she lands a career-making case, only to learn her nemesis, Ezra Hart, will be her opposing counsel on the case. Not only will he make it hard for her to win the case, but she’s also secretly sleeping with him, which makes things even more awkward. Ezra may have a winning record in the courtroom, but his charm has never worked on Dani. He wishes she would see him as more than the playboy she seems to think he is. I had such a good time with this book! Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope, and I loved the twist of Dani and Ezra having this secret “enemies with benefits” arrangement. Lana Ferguson always delivers when it comes to writing spicy scenes so Dani and Ezra’s arrangement was pure fun. Their chemistry was off the charts and their banter was hilarious, especially the nicknames they had for each other. Dani had black cat energy and I cackled every time Ezra called her Sour Patch! Aside from being fun and spicy, this story also had some nice depth to it. I really enjoyed watching Dani and Ezra gradually grow closer. Dani is so fiercely independent and afraid of letting herself be vulnerable with another person. I was rooting hard for her to get past that because it was easy to tell that Ezra could be worth the risk and that he was not the playboy she thought he was. 🎧I did an immersive read & thoroughly enjoyed the narration of Connor Crais & Samantha Summers, especially the way they made Ferguson’s banter pop off the page. I listened comfortably at 1.7x. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 ❓QOTD - If you had to pick an animal to describe your energy, what animal would you choose? AOTD - Most days I’m a panda. 😂

📚 MESSY MONDAY - JUNE WRAP UP 📚 I’ll be s 📚 MESSY MONDAY - JUNE WRAP UP 📚 I’ll be sharing my July hopefuls sometime in the next day or so, but for today, here’s my June wrap-up. The company I work for does half day Fridays all summer long so I get quite a bit of extra reading time during those months. I read 22 books in June. Most were arcs but I also added two pretty thick books off my physical TBR, Quicksilver and Binding 13. With the exception of one book I DNFed after starting it three different times throughout the month and giving up each time, I really enjoyed everything I read, so I’d say it was a pretty good month. My photo features all of the physical copies I read, but I also read a few e-arcs and listened to several audiobooks as well. I got into such a groove with my reading that I got behind on my reviews so several of these reviews will be posting throughout the week. ❓QOTD: How was your reading month?

✨25 in 2025 Read #12 - BELLADONNA by Adalyn Grac ✨25 in 2025 Read #12 - BELLADONNA by Adalyn Grace ✨ I don’t read much YA these days, but Belladonna is one that had caught my attention and I’m glad I read it because I ended up really enjoying it. I loved the unique premise of the story, particularly that of Signa, this girl who is unable to die even though death seems to be all around her and even when she actively seeks it out by ingesting poison. I also loved that Death is an actual character in the story, a shadowy alluring presence who is never far from Signa’s side. When the story opens, Death has entered Signa’s home and killed her parents and all of their friends during a party. Signa, who is an infant at the time, is the sole survivor. Every family member Signa is then sent to live with also dies, leaving Signa angry and resentful of Death because she just wants somewhere she can call home. Signa fascinated me because she clearly has some kind of powers that protect her from dying as well as a most unique relationship with the character of Death. When Signa moves in with her last living relatives and soon realizes that someone is trying to kill her cousin, she confronts Death because she’s tired of losing her family. She gets Death to agree to help her figure out who is after her cousin and he also agrees to help her understand her powers, which brings Signa closer to Death than she has ever been before and she finds herself drawn to him. I enjoyed that Belladonna was part mystery, part slow-burn paranormal romance with atmospheric Gothic vibes. I thought that kept things interesting and I loved all of the unexpected twists and turns as Signa and Death set out to find the would-be killer, and I also really enjoyed the character growth of Signa as we watch her grow from a vulnerable lonely child to a young woman who is ready to embrace and learn more about her mysterious powers. I wasn’t entirely sure if I would be into a romance where one of the characters was Death but the author sold me on it and I’m looking forward to continuing the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓QOTD - What are you reading this weekend?
📫 Forever Friday - Hannah Brown Book Mail 📫 📫 Forever Friday - Hannah Brown Book Mail 📫 Thanks so much to @readforeverpub for this fun bookmail. Hannah Brown’s latest book The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain just came out this week and I’ve been seeing some great reviews for it, so I’m excited to have the opportunity to read it, along with Hannah’s debut novel, Mistakes We Never Made. 🩵Synopsis for Mistakes We Never Made: An epic coastal road-trip gives two lifelong rivals a second chance at love in this debut novel from The Bachelorette star and New York Times bestselling author Hannah Brown. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, MISTAKES WE NEVER MADE reminds us it’s never too late to risk falling in love, because being true to your heart is never a mistake. 🩷 Synopsis for The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain: Forgetting Sarah Marshall meets Anyone But You in this novel from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author and The Bachelorette star Hannah Brown. Sybil can’t wait to escape to a tropical paradise, all expenses paid. Well, technically the expenses were paid—last year, when she was supposed to honeymoon in Hawaii with her then-fiancé, Jamie. But she nearly plunges backwards into the infinity pool when she sees Jamie there, too… Desperate to save face in front of the ex who broke her heart at the altar, Sybil accidentally-on-purpose blurts out that she’s vacationing with her boyfriend. But what starts as a harmless lie soon spirals into an ex-fiancé fiasco when Sebastian—the second of Sybil’s three failed engagements—pops by, fresh off a photography gig… Sybil does her best to juggle two ex-fiancés. But it’s becoming clear that her past of broken promises must be reckoned with once and for all—including that first fiancé, Liam, the one she never talks about . . . Is the notorious free-spirit, life-of-the-party, runaway bride Sybil Rain ready to heal from her three past engagements and make room in her heart for a fourth and final chance at love? ❓QOTD - Do you have any fun weekend plans?
Thanks to @simon.audio for the #gifted audiobook. Thanks to @simon.audio for the #gifted audiobook. #partner (Physical copy was purchased by me) ✨ Review - MY FRIENDS ✨ Author - Fredrik Backman Pub Date - 5/6/25 I always find Fredrik Backman’s books hard to review because I feel like I never have the words to express how special they are. His latest book, My Friends, is an incredibly moving story that is at times heartbreaking, but also filled with warmth and humor. One thing Backman does so well is he always makes me care deeply for his characters, to the extent that I’ll still vividly remember them years after reading one of his books. Louisa is an 18 year old artist whose best friend has recently died. Both were orphans in the foster system, so now Louisa is alone. She meets a man in an alley, not realizing he’s a famous artist. She tells him about her favorite painting, not realizing he’s the artist and the painting is of his best friends. When the artist dies, his friend Ted finds Louisa and gives the painting, the start of a life changing journey for her. Louisa confesses to Ted she’s homeless and he offers to help her sell the painting. As they travel by train to make that happen, Ted and Louisa bond & he tells her the full story of the friends in the painting - Ted, Joar, Ali, and “the artist” - and just how important they were to each other. We see flashbacks of their lives, which were often so hard, they were almost painful to read in some cases. The teens’ friendships were such a beautiful contrast to all of the ugliness that surrounded them & I was so invested in their story, as was Louisa, who prodded Ted to continue every time he paused. I adored the bond between Ted and Louisa. They were so funny and in tune with one another, like Louisa had found her people. If you know me, you know I love the found family trope & with My Friends, I feel like Backman has written the ultimate found family story. As heartbreaking as the story could be at times, there’s a beautiful underlying message about the power of friendship & having people believe in you. Marin Ireland narrates the audiobook & turns in a phenomenal performance that had me feeling all the emotions! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓Last 5 star read?
Thanks to @hambright_pr and @jillshalvis for the # Thanks to @hambright_pr and @jillshalvis for the #gifted review copy! 🩷 Review - THE LOVE FIX 🩷 Author - Jill Shalvis Pub Date - 6/24/25 Lexi Clark hasn’t been back to Sunrise Cove since she was a child. Her mother Daisy’s gambling addiction drove their family apart back then and Lexi moved away with her father. The Lexi we meet when the story opens has since been fired from her job, cheated on, and has put walls up around her heart. Lexi has now reluctantly returned at the request of her stepsister Ashley to fulfill the last request of Daisy, who passed away a year ago. Shortly before her death, Daisy won the lottery and as a way to thank some people who helped her when her life hit rock bottom, she has divided the winnings into six envelopes and wants Lexi and Ashley to deliver them together, one a week until they’re all delivered. I started to get emotional as soon as I realized what Daisy was really trying to do with this seemingly odd request. I loved watching the sisters bond as they carried out Daisy’s wishes and how what starts out as a trip Lexi didn’t really even want to make turns into such a journey of healing for her. In addition to allowing her to bond with her stepsister, coming home allows Lexi to reconnect with Heath, her childhood rival now something more. Their romance is a slow burn, but every interaction between them is just perfect. Heath has grown up to be this charming guy, and whether Lexi wants to admit it or not, she can’t get enough of him, even if he drives her crazy. While he may like to tease her, Heath understands all she has been through and is incredibly patient with her. I loved the two of them together and was really rooting for both he and Ashley to knock all of those walls down around Lexi’s heart so that she could have the relationships she had been denying herself by closing herself off for so many years. The Love Fix is the eighth and final book in Jill Shalvis’ Sunrise Cove series, and while I’m sad to see it end, Shalvis ends the series on a beautiful note, filled with warmth, humor, love, and family. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 ❓QOTD - Jill Shalvis is one of my auto-buy authors. Who are some of yours?
Thanks to @readforeverpub and @hachetteaudio for t Thanks to @readforeverpub and @hachetteaudio for the #gifted book and ALC! #partner 💜 Review - WRITING MR. WRONG 💜 Author - Kelley Armstrong Pub Date - 6/24/25 Writing Mr. Wrong immediately appealed to me in that it’s both a hockey romance and it’s a book about books. Gemma is a romance author and when we meet her, she is promoting her debut novel, a novel where she has written the male lead to be a jerk, inspired by her first crush in high school, Mason Moretti, a now famous but aging hockey player. When the cover art for the book is revealed, a mean girl from high school who now happens to anchor a talk show offers to help Gemma promote her book. What she doesn’t tell Gemma is that she recognizes Mason and because she clearly hasn’t outgrown her mean girl ways, decides to blindside Gemma on live TV by inviting Mason to her show as well. Mason catches on to what Ms. Mean Girl is up to, thankfully, manages to turn what could have been a nightmare into a public lovefest for himself and Gemma instead, which then leads to their publicists suggesting some fake dating might help both of their careers. I had such a good time with this story! I love fake dating and a second chance romance, and since Gemma and Mason clearly still had feelings of some sort for one another, I was dying to know what happened between them in high school to inspire Gemma to put him in her book the way she did. I also loved that Mason read Gemma’s book since he knew he had inspired the male main character and that he actually learned from it. I already loved Gemma from the start, after learning that she was divorced and now making it on her own as an author, but Mason really stepped it up with some amazing character growth. I just really enjoyed the way Armstrong wrote this relationship. They supported each other as they figured things out. It felt very healthy and had me rooting for them as a couple all the more. Patricia Santomasso & Sean Patrick Hopkins narrate the audiobook and I enjoyed their performances because they really had me feeling the chemistry and the history between Gemma & Mason. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓QOTD - Do you enjoy books about books? Have a favorite?
Thanks for the free book and #gifted ALC @berkleyr Thanks for the free book and #gifted ALC @berkleyromance #BerkleyPartner #Berkley & @prhaudio #prhaudiopartner 💛 Review - FINDERS KEEPERS 💛 Author - Sarah Adler Pub Date - 6/24/25 When we meet Nina, she is going through some things. She has just lost her teaching job, her boyfriend, and she has had to return to her hometown and move back in with her parents. The situation is not ideal, to say the least, especially when Nina realizes that Quentin, her estranged childhood best friend who she also had a crush on, is also back in town, and living next door. After an awkward reunion, Quentin convinces Nina they should revisit a treasure hunt they were in the middle of the last time they saw each other nearly 20 year ago, a treasure hunt that actually ended their friendship. I love a second chance romance and I love it even more when it features childhood best friends. It was really sweet to watch these two reconnect. They clearly have so much history and I enjoyed how they interacted with one another once they got past their initial awkwardness and started to remember all of the things they loved best about each other. The treasure hunt added a fun little adventure to help reestablish that connection between them and I loved all of the banter between them while they were hunting. The romance is a slow burn because there are things that need to be dealt with first. Not only is Nina still dealing with all of those things that drove her back home in the first place, but seeing Quentin again has reopened old wounds and the two of them have to work through what happened in their own past if they want to explore any of the new feelings they’re experiencing towards one another after all these years. Overall, I thought it was a fun read with plenty of humor and heart. When I saw that Mara Wilson was narrating the audiobook, I had to do an immersive read and I thoroughly enjoyed Wilson’s performance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓QOTD - Favorite read so far this month?
🗝️ Review - DON’T LET HIM IN 🗝️ Autho 🗝️ Review - DON’T LET HIM IN 🗝️ Author - Lisa Jewell Pub Date - 6/24/25 Thanks to @atriabooks for the #gifted e-arc & @simon.audio for the #gifted audiobook. #partner After her husband is tragically killed when a mentally ill man pushes him into the path of an approaching train, Nina receives a condolence gift in the mail from a man named Nick Radcliffe, who says he was a friend of her husband’s. Nick soon starts coming around and eventually he and Nina start dating. Nina’s adult daughter Ash is immediately suspicious of Nick. Something about him just seems too good to be true, and since her mother won’t listen to her, Ash decides to do some digging into Nick’s past on her own. In a neighboring town, Martha is feeling a little suspicious towards the man in her life as well. Martha is a florist who is juggling running her business and raising an infant daughter, alongside Alistair, her usually devoted husband. Lately, however, Alistair has been more absent than he has been present. He always has a plausible excuse, usually something work related, but the longer his behavior goes on, the less Martha trusts him and suspects something more is going on. What I always love about Lisa Jewell’s thrillers is watching how seemingly unrelated threads slowly start to weave themselves together as the plot moves along. In the case of Don’t Let Him In, I was captivated watching to see how the lives of Nina and Martha would slowly start to become connected even though the two women have never met one another, if the men in their lives were as suspicious as they seemed to be, and I was eager to see what Ash would uncover as she started digging into Nick’s past. What I knew I could count on with Lisa Jewell was that it would be a creepy and twisty ride and I was not disappointed! I did an immersive read with the e-arc and ALC and while I enjoyed both formats, I think the full cast narration on the audiobook was fantastic. I did get confused and had to backtrack a couple of times but I think it was me up too late reading because this was such a page turner! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓QOTD - What are you reading this week?
Thanks to @macmillan.audio #MacAudio2025 #macmilla Thanks to @macmillan.audio #MacAudio2025 #macmillanaudio for the gifted ALC. 🎧 Review - TOTAL DREAMBOAT 🎧 Author - Katelyn Doyle Pub Date - 6/24/25 Even though Hope could really use a vacation from the job she hates and from her failed relationship, cruises just aren’t her thing. She has only agreed to come along and keep her influencer bestie company. Felix is a chef who probably needs a vacation as well, but he’s a workaholic and never takes time off. He’s only on the trip because his family gifted him the ticket and he felt too guilty to say no. This book was such a good time! I love the premise of a cruise ship rom-com, but this one especially grabbed my attention since neither Hope nor Felix really even wanted to be on the cruise and they definitely weren’t looking for love. There’s an instant attraction when the two of them meet and an easy banter between them, and their first thought is a ten-day fling with no strings. They have amazing chemistry so even though I’m not usually into insta-love, I could easily get behind a vacation fling. That said, the more time they spent together, the easier it became to root for them to try to turn their fling into something more meaningful because they start to form a deeper, more emotional bond and become more vulnerable with one another. If you enjoy a balance between comedic elements and more emotional ones, this book has that. I also liked the way the story unfolds because it actually starts with a dramatic scene where Hope and Felix have somehow both missed getting back aboard the ship at one of the ports and it has sailed off without them. Things are clearly tense, almost hostile, between them as they must figure out what to do. and then the author takes us back to the beginning to let us see how they got to that point. I just loved that! The audiobook is narrated by Russ Bain and Kelli Tager and I really enjoyed them as Felix and Hope. They really captured the chemistry between the two characters as well as all of that tension when things weren’t going so well between them. It was a great performance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❓QOTD - If you could take one now, where would you go?

Thanks for the free e-arc and #gifted ALC @berkley Thanks for the free e-arc and #gifted ALC @berkleyromance #BerkleyPartner #Berkley & @prhaudio #prhaudiopartner 🎶 Review - SOUNDS LIKE LOVE 🎶 Author - Ashley Poston Pub Date - 6/17/25 (Physical copy purchased by me) Sometimes magical realism can be hit or miss for me in contemporary romance books, but Ashley Poston just gets it right every time, including in her latest novel, Sounds Like Love. Joni Lark is a successful songwriter who has developed a case of writer’s block. She is returning to her North Carolina hometown in hopes that inspiration will strike, but attends a concert the night before she leaves. At the concert, Joni meets and shares an impulsive kiss with Sebastian, a handsome but gruff musician who has issues but still makes an impression on her. Once Joni arrives back in NC, inspiration does not strike. Instead, she finds herself struggling even more now that she can see firsthand how far her mom’s dementia has progressed and when she learns that the family business has been struggling and is closing. Nothing feels right and on top of all that, Joni suddenly finds that she has an unfinished melody stuck in her head, and a man’s voice. No one else can hear the melody or the man’s voice, but he apparently can hear the melody as well. The man is also a musician, and he’s funny, charming, and he has a plan - they should finish writing this song together. He comes to her in NC, and Joni is shocked that it’s actually Sebastian of all people. I loved that the music connected the two of them and allowed them to grow closer because Sebastian and Joni really do have great chemistry, and it brought tears to my eyes when we eventually learn where the melody they were hearing originated. The romance is beautifully written and I loved it, but what really made this a special read for me was the emotional depth of the family relationships. This book just made me feel so much! I had to do an immersive read with the e-arc and ALC once I realized Patti Murin was narrating the audiobook & as always, she did an incredible job & had me feeling all the feels! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 ❓QOTD - Last song you had stuck in your head?
