I truly didn't see that twist ending coming. It blew me away a bit and almost knocked this down to a 4 star
 But this book was incredible! Not a slow or dull moment and it kept me on my toes.

This was not good. I totally understand the point behind this book and empowering older women but this was SO boring for a fluffy little romance. Nothing even happened. There was no conflict, no real plot, the ending just happened. This was just bad.

Informative and enjoyable! I learned so much and truly loved the characters. Unfortunately the ending was rushed and fell flat after so many pages of excellent story telling.

This book gave me the ick. Overly quirky girl meets grumpy guy in the most absurd way possible. She loves everything but has a "dark secret" and he hates everything but loves her. 

This whole book was absurd. There was NO character development, the funny parts weren't funny, and the romance scenes were just kind of icky.

Great debut mystery/thriller from this author. I did not expect any of the things that happened in this book, including the ending. 
I can't give it 5 stars, mostly because the integration of the novel written by Alex was confusing and I couldn't make the connection. 
challenging emotional hopeful informative medium-paced

Thought provoking and well written. Although I'm not the target audience for this book, I still got a lot out of it. I really appreciated the audiobook read by the the author. It brought so much emotion and feeling to the stories told.

This book reignited my love for romance. It's happy, funny and lighthearted. I was grinning or laughing through most of it. Nate and Stas are adorable. The banter is excellent. I cannot wait to read more by this author.

Writing was great and the plot was great. However, maybe I've read too many thrillers but this was just so predictable. Like within the first 3 chapters I had this figured out which made it an absolute bore to get through.

A cozy and quick read. If you love fantasy and want something low stakes this is for you. 
This could have been higher rated for me but I just wanted more. More story and more development of the characters.

Chaotic but in the worst way possible. 

A group of long term friends go to a remote lodge together to ring in the new year. Secrets are revealed and someone turns up dead. 

This was a worse version of The Guest List. I was so bored but a story that was meant to be thrilling.
