Book 2 in the Amazon Prime “Creature Feature” collection. I Had to read Grady‘s first of course. It was ok, good premise but I wish it was longer lol would have liked to see the conclusion

A cute sapphic novel between the goth loner chick and peachy clean cheerleader set in the early 2000s, add in a zombie cat and witchcraft what‘s not to love?This was a cute novella, sweet and spooky, I‘ll be reading the rest in the series and also the novels about Babe and Dude. #Septemberromance

Smut | Matt Micheli

I don‘t even know what to say. This is a smutty novella about a woman who gets it on with her front door 🚪. The book is told from the doors POV, there is small plot involving murder and also little cameos from a couple Greek gods. Would I recommend this? No lol not really. Is this the worst thing I‘ve ever read? Actually, no lol. I‘m going to count this as a #Septemberromance read ✅🍂♥️🚪

Im listening to this on Hoopla and I‘m loving it so much! The prose is so over the top and adorably gothic and the narration is so good, I love how she does Sally‘s voice. Great read so far for my #SeptemberRomance 🪦♥️🍂 also I love how they described Valentines Day Town it was so sickly sweet ♥️🍂

I listened to the audiobook of this, made it my little ritual while I was doing the dishes at night. It was intriguing and relaxing, I loved whoever did the voice for Julia Day. This is a solid crime novel, I enjoyed it and would read more books from this author centered around Julia. This book really wasn‘t twisty or shocking, just a good British crime novel. Felt like I was watching a tv series lol
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

This book was crazy. Like every chapter ended with something vaguely ominous, it was kind of ridiculous but made me keep reading. I actually did NOT expect the twist and was like WHAT. I thought it was really clever how that panned out. This was a solid fun thriller ⭐️⭐️⭐️

So cool that #BOTM has audiobooks now! It‘s a fun option if your not interested in the picks and don‘t want to skip. This was really good. Pretty triggering if you were raised by a BPD mother or if you‘ve suffered from a eating disorder. Would definitely recommend the audiobook as Jennette does a great job, you even hear her get emotional a couple times. I‘m sure this was cathartic to write. Happy healing girl ✨❤️‍🩹

I don‘t usually read contemporary romance, they tend to be too trendy and fluffy for my taste ( Where‘s the angst and morally grey, definitely problematic love interest??) BUT wow!! This was SO CUTE. I LOVED Ellie and Jack (Jack was 🔥) I loved all the tropes and all the quipy characters. This book made me cry, it had the feels and the sap and I really had fun reading it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #gaymay 🏳️‍🌈 #BOTM

This is my least favorite Grady book. It slogged for the first half and I found the inner dialogue to be repetitive. But in true Grady fashion many parts made me laugh and it was campy and ridiculous and there was some real life heart sprinkled amidst the insane chaos. KAKAWEWE!

This will be the last book I force myself to finish. Life‘s too short. This book is written well and the characters are well written and interesting. The content was not for me. I would not have picked this book up had I known the age gap. lots of parts made me uncomfortable and I couldn‘t justify the relationship. I did hope to see things work out for Wavy and her brother so I finished it. ⭐️⭐️1/2 #botm

This book was really good! Gritty 90s YA about werewolves, the protagonist was so cocky and confident I loved her. I loved the whole pack and mythos the author came up with. I Can‘t wait to read Silver Kiss, will love seeing what this author can do with Vamps #12Challenge

normasue This is one of my all time favorites! So happy to see someone else enjoy it. I love the cover art of this edition. There is a movie made of this book but they completely changed it. It's not entirely horrible if you go into it knowing it's not the same and you just want a short werewolf flick, but still the book is way better. 4mo

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Raw, tender, beautifully written.

Going from very tender innocent sweet moments to nerve racking potentially violent ones made me jumpy and anxious at times. I loved Mungo and didn‘t want anything to happen to him. Great book, this was my first Douglas Stuart book and I loved his writing.

I loved this book! It is tragic but I could not stop reading, its written so well, I was totally wrapped up in the story. I will definitely be reading the second book and was excited to see this will be a trilogy.

Weird and feverish. If there was some meaning or satirical point the author was trying to put across, I didn‘t understand it lol but I couldn‘t stop reading it for some reason and it got me out of my reading slump.
Everyone is a little unhinged and as the book progresses so does the unstableness. Bit unsettling but unfortunately the ending is lackluster.
