Review: Wolf and Punishment: 50 Loving States, Wyoming

Wolf and Punishment: 50 Loving States, Wyoming by Theodora Taylor
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really, really liked this one. Almost as much as Chloe's story, and that one was damn near perfect. I loved Mag from the first moment he was introduced to the last line of the book. And even when Janelle was annoying the frag out of me, I understood completely where she was coming from. Living with someone else's expectations of you is something I think many (read: all) Black women have dealt with since the dawn of time. I could relate on a personal level and it made the journey that much better.

This book is the 7th I've read in the series, and firmly cements Theodora Taylor as a one-click author for me. Unfortunately, Rafe's story is next and it's no secret that I despise him. He's a complete arsehole and I really don't want him to be happy. I'm perfectly content to let that jerk be miserable. I *almost* don't want to read the next book because he's the alpha-love, but I can't miss Alisha's story. A smart, no-nonsense, educated, funny Black heroine? Yes, please.

Happy reading!

Review: Dirty Money

Dirty Money by Liliana Hart My rating: 5 of 5 stars This really wasn't long enough. The story stops at 88% for some reason, but fine. I'll accept that because it was awesome! The stakes were extremely high this time around after the cliffhanger in the last book. I'm happy that Jack and Jaye are evolving as a married couple while dealing with old ghosts. This book wrapped up a 4-book story arc, and while it feels like a good place to end, I hope that it doesn't. View all my reviews

Review: Silent in the Grave

Silent in the Grave by Deanna Raybourn My rating: 2 of 5 stars #PopsugarReadingChallenge2019 Prompt - a book recommended by a celebrity you admire: The incomparable Felicia Day (actress, author, all around good egg) rated this 5 stars in her active Goodreads library. ...and I won't hold it against her. Once upon a time, Modern Millie travelled back in time and did a bunch of things that were not possible for women during the Victorian era. Along the way, she met an android disguised as a human that could slice and dice and speak every language. He also had a superpower: to annoy this particular reader to the point of pain. Literal pain, mind you. I rolled my eyes so hard and often that I gave myself a headache. Together, they set out to alternately annoy and bore the shit out of me, as it was also her superpower; and solve a murder that I, myself, solved before 40% of the book had been read. Unfortunately, they survived to annoy and angst me into...
