Coming Home by Kennedy Ryan

 Good read, cute little rekindle love story. This book should of been a little longer. I love the college friendships they still had and to get a ring at the end is priceless. Just chefs kiss. The man said he wonder the world and she was right here 

The Confessional by Ashley Antoinette

medium-paced

5.0

 No this is a good short read. Tori Tori Tori, girl you fought hard to go out like that. This book has the drama, frenemy, gaslighting, fake love you name it. The fact that she had 2 bodies by the age 18 and was training for that life style is wild. I just wasn't expecting the end.

 It’s the drama, the betrayal, the love story, the prison pen pal all in one. Lei was hurt by almost every man that entered her life. London being that man in prison really was chef’s kiss. Looks like they signed up with the king pins!! That mfn tussie and yoni get exactly what they deserve.

This book was good and short, I love the fact that Keke Palmer narrated the book. Janet was just a push over. I wish it was more to this book.

Growing Up Urkel by Jaleel White

hopeful informative inspiring medium-paced

This book was pretty decent. I like the lesson that he gave throughout this book. I would have like it better if he had of just stuck to a timeline. I respect 🫡 his decision to not be called a character that he played but society thinks they’re entitled.

Master of Me by Keke Palmer

I love a good memoir that shows family values. The insight and gems she dropped in this book was great. I really like the assessments and take aways that's she gave during the book. Keke is that girl, she's human like all us and just wants to steer her own boat and collect the coins that's owed. I listen to the audio so it was a bonus to her her song at the end.

This was a pretty good book. Animal couldn’t catch a break. The fact he ended up like his dad was just in his blood. His mom was a pick me! I feel bad about her demise. I respect the fact he took Ashunti under his wing. I can’t wait to read Animal I know he bout to be a beast 

Untouchable by Shon

5.0

One of the cutest love stories I’ve read. Cuz where tf can I order a Pierre from. I don't think Prime sells those. This was my first FWB book and I loved it. This lady was so hurt and all this man wanted to do was love her. Just a classic.
