A quick and easy read. Just what I needed. But I also did NOT expect to cry so much during this book, damn. It got to be quite emotional at times!

Well, since this was published in 2018, it only covers part of trumps first term. Now that he’s back in office…. a lot of things said in this book have definitely now happened or are in the process of happening which is ultra scary. I’d say this is required reading for sure.

Well! Birds are neat. Extinctions are depressing. And there is yet still hope in these dark climate change times. Worth a read or listen.

Some very good messages about body positivity and self imagine struggles in this book, which definitely resonated with me. As well as the FMC’s struggles internally with how she looked and her past experiences with men and dating because boy can I relate.

There’s too many book boyfriends that I would like in real life and Hayes is another one to add to my ever growing list.

This is obviously Taylor and Travis fan fiction, but it was still super cute. These dang romance books make me yearn for someone to care about me like in the books. Is it even possible in real life? Maybe. Maybe not. Either way, cheesy romcoms will always have my heart.

I will always love romances with plus size fmc’s. Reading books about women that are my size be loved on properly makes me tear up sometimes. The author says her books are fluff, and I totally agree. Cute sports romcom fluff and I’m here for it. Doesn’t take away any of her hard work writing the book, because sometimes we need some cute lighthearted fluff in our lives. Especially right now.

What a great end to a random series about wildland firefighters. Who wouldn’t want a Xander tbh. I would. I am not sure if I’d say the fmc is plus size but it did sound like she is plus size in the book which is always nice to see.
