Thank you Henry Holt and NetGalley for the eARC of Killer House Party!  All opinions in this review are my own.

Honestly, this was the haunted house book I was looking for this spooky season!  I like how the house used the rumors about it for inspiration.  However, I didn't love the actual story.  I'm not quite sure if it were the characters or if it is because I am not the targeted age group, but I found them to be annoying most of the time.  Overall, I stayed for the haunted house details and probably would have dnfed otherwise.

Thank you Macmillan Audio and Libro FM for the ALC of Celestial Monsters!  All opinions in this review are my own.

I loved the second book in the Sunbearer Duology and I think it's because I listened to it.  I liked the first book, but the narrator of the audiobook did such an excellent job of injecting the characters' emotions into their voices that it truly made reading the book even better for me!  I want to go back and listen to the first one now too!

Thank you Celadon Books and NetGalley for the eARC of Honey.  All opinions in this review are my own.

I was very excited about the concept of this one, but I feel like everything was very surface level.  Maybe this is intentional because it is a comment on how pop stars are only know for their stage personas and not the person behind it, but I struggled to finish this one.

Thank you Forever and NetGalley for the eARC of One Last Summer!  All opinions in this review are my own.

I took a break from my fall reads to read this summery romance and it did not disappoint!  I loved the New Hampshire summer camp setting and how the characters were returning to camp as adults.  This second chance romance is a look at how much can change, but also how things stay the same.  

If you are a fan of summer camp and crossing things off a bucket list, you should read this romance!

Thank you Wednesday Books and NetGalley for the eARC of The Debutantes!  All opinions in this review are my own.

I enjoyed People We Follow by Olivia Worley, but she has really hit her stride in The Debutantes!  I could not put it down and fair warning - you will want to read the last 100 pages in one sitting.  There are so many twists in The Debutantes and they were incorporated so well!  Honestly, I could go on and on about this book, but you should probably just read it yourself.

Thank you Kodansha Comics and NetGalley for the eARC of Home Office Romance!  All opinions in this review are my own.

I loved this one volume manga!  I immediately started reading it and I couldn't put down this sweet romance between two neighbors during the pandemic!  I like how the characters had to navigate both their busy schedules and how they go about dating when they can't go out on actual dates.  I highly recommend Home Office Romance!
