jussygillis's Reviews (761)

I had zero interest from the very beginning and since it’s so slow paced I wasn’t subjecting myself to it. 

I want to like classics, and I can appreciate them. But it takes me ten thousand years to read them. They’re just bit something I enjoy. This one included. 

““No, my tools are for my wooden creations, my hands are for their muses.”

Petrified Women by Jeremy Ray

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
My sculpture artist boyfriend is perfect, even though his practical jokes are sometimes taken a little too far. 

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
Wooooow thank you Jeremy for a copy of this novella in exchange for my honest review. This novella was short but certainly not sweet. I could have honestly read an entire novel with the atmosphere you brought forward in this. I can’t wait to read more works.

“Sexual chicken, such a dumb game.” 

Dirty Truths by Jaymin Eve & Tate James
Book two of Boys of Bellerose series 

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
After being saved by Angelo, Billie owes him her life. But what is the cost.? Bellerose is under new ownership and is working hard to get their contract completed after the events of their last concert. 

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
Well the fact that I read this in less than 24hrs should really explain things perfectly to you. Rockstars,
Mafia, murder, mayhem. Oh my!

“Why live in the real world when I can be around much more interesting people in these books?”

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
Jordan is overworked and underpaid but one thing he looks forward to is his romance bookclub he recently created that meets each week. Until he meets the new employee at the bookstore while he’s picking up his books for the club, and the employee starts giving him hard time about romance novels…..

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
This book was so stinking cuuute! We started this for @book.club.bitches bookclub this month and I’m pretty sure almost all of us scraped the schedule and finished it within the first two weeks. 
 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE AUDIOBOOK. The voice on the narrator is 🥵 

I’m just switching to the audiobook for the rest. 

This quick listen really made me think about organizing and cleaning my house even now. 

This title had me interested immediately when a fellow bookstagrammer mentioned it. 

Although there’s nothing more than things that SHOULD be common sense, death cleaning I think is something people don’t want to think about but we should. 

““We’re stuck on a creepy island, this isn’t really a good time to hold grudges anyway.”

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
Ollie, Brian and Coco have been living in fear of the chance of the smiling man returning. They have learned coping skills to keep them safe. But what seemed like a fun sailing day, a monster has turned that all on its head. 

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
This was my favourite one so far, we meet a new character and have left on such a cliff hanger, I. NEED. THE. FOURTH. BOOK. 

“Standing back so someone can walk the rest of their park alone is often the most difficult part, especially when you care.”

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
Emilia has been handed shock after shock, and this recent one is about to bring everything to a head. 

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
I enjoyed the journey to the end more than the ending. I was so invested but why did the ending leave me feeling so …. Meh.? 

“You humans will never appreciate a stroll through the Garden until you’ve felt the flames of Hell.” 

QUICK RECAP 🖊️ 
In 1994 a family buy an old farm house, things start off weird right away and they learn more about the house and the old owner. 

FINAL THOUGHTS 💭 
Oooof this one took off instantly and just didn’t stop throwing things at you the whole time. We have exorcists, a haunted house and complete mind fucks. Now someone please tell me there’s going to be a sequel.
