Another cute addition to the Mead Mishaps collection. The concept of a cheese maker and a lactose intolerant love interest brings me so much joy. It's a cute and quick mood lifting read.

This is a cute funny book. Some good spice and the characters are fun. Pacing was pretty fast so it's a nice and quick palette cleanser/mood lifter.

I really enjoyed this read!! I found myself giggling and cackling so many times. And the conflict actually caused stress and anxiety. And you can't go wrong with MCs that actually communicate.

Soo good!! Really enjoyed this read. I really liked the background/explanation for Shay's initial dislike of Dominic. Also just a cute concept for a romance.

This book was so cute. It had heartfelt and funny moments. I enjoyed how the two MCs were full adults - having lived and loved prior to the start of this story. The love story was also tied to real problems all adults face. Also, the communication and boundary setting - we love. 

Defend the Dawn by Brigid Kemmerer
Did not finish book. Stopped at 59%.

Not mentally in a space to read this one. 
It's really good - will be picking it back up 

The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri
Did not finish book. Stopped at 17%.

It's really good I'm just not at a place mentally to handle/appreciate the intricate political subplot.

This is the perfect pallet cleanser and my new comfort read. Only thing is I wish it was a little more gay. (Don't mean spice but just cute moments)

OH MY GOD. The ending. 
I am very ready for book 2. Overall, really enjoyed this read. The magic system is easy to follow and interesting. There were some really cool surprises sprinkled in as well. And this book truly lives up to the enemies to loves trope. We are very much in enemy territory right now and I'm here for it. 10/10 would recommend.
