Ruthless Vows by Rebecca Ross
4.0
"Write me a story where there is no ending, kitt. Write to me and fill my empty spaces."
I really enjoyed this second book! I loved the multiple POV’s and the ins and outs of this story along with all the characters and I might have shed a couple tears too.

The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
5.0
It’s weird to say I loved this book, but I did. It was horrific and inspiring. It was both a history lesson and a story of love, bravery and loss.
The narration of this book was just incredible. If you read this, also listen to this.
A book has never moved me so deeply and truly reminded me of what those before us have fought for and the horrific events that have shaped our world. I think every human should read this book.

Out On a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young
4.0
Just when I think I can’t stomach romance books anymore this cutie comes along. It’s not the same recycled stories like a lot of books in this category. Such a cute story that felt like real life in the best way possible. It was a very light and fun read and even made me laugh a couple times! Loved the narration too!

Hunger Games meets the Bachelor! I actually really enjoyed this. I love America, total main character energy. This was an easy read that I finished quickly! Excited to dive into the next book. I’m so torn on which way I want this to go based on the ending so I’m excited to see what happens!
The Elite by Kiera Cass
3.0
Okay hear me out I still love the concept of this book and I’m hoping the third book redeems this series. This was a missed opportunity to really build this story. America spent the whole book whining and going back and forth on her decisions. And it was a tad exhausting. Luckily it was a quick read and there were still pieces I loved. Onto the next.

3.5 stars! Okay… the back and forth again at the beginning of this book. I wanted to smack America.
American Queen by Sierra Simone

3.5 stars! I honestly started reading this because it was free on audible! While some of it felt overly unrealistic, I appreciated that this book is different than anything I’ve read. This is a reverse harem romance book with an interesting story line!
"The first step to understanding anything, whether it's the Bible or Fifty Shades of Grey, is acknowledging that we come to it with agendas of our own, we want it to mean something, we are biased whether we know it or not, and usually what we walk away with is what we want to walk away with" - Ash

This was a little too much for me. It continued to get worse and more unrealistic and just too much as the book went on. Trauma can’t be wiped away with sex. That’s all I’ll say.

Pussy: A Reclamation by Regena Thomashauer

Every human should read this. It’s only January and I think this might be the most transformational book I’ll read this year. I already know it’s going to help me grow in every aspect of my life.
