Audiobook: 3.5 - this was a quick listen & my first Adriana book. This was also my first second chance romance (that I can recall) and I am all about this trope! I am looking forward to reading her other books.
Audiobook: 3.5 - Love the concept of this book! Was a little long and some of the names got confusing especially in the beginning. Love the relationship between the two boys. This is a great book for the fall.
Audiobook: 3.75 - I read this book for a buddy read and I’ll be honest when I first started it I was so lost I had to stop after 30 minutes. I then restarted it the following day and much better experience. It also didn’t help that it kept going back and forth with the time so I was getting confused. I did not know much about Shakespeare son or his family so not having that knowledge didn’t help. I did have to keep wiki and book reviews up to help keep me on track. This book had so much heart and especially toward the end I felt so sad as William and his wife were simply parents grieving for their son. I think those who love Shakespeare or Shakespearean writing would really enjoy this.
Audiobook: 4.5 - I had originally rated this 5 stars but after talking with a fellow Bookstagrammer she had me thinking of things I didn’t think about. I love the dual POVs between the two main characters. I thought the audiobook was great and the story moved quick for me. I definitely thought there would be more murder & more psychological mind games. I love the Gossip Girl element to it. I would definitely recommend the audio of it.
Audiobook: this was my 2nd Riley book and it was so different from Survive the Night! This one was definitely more spooky. Took me a bit to get into it but the last quarter was the best part. Thought the two POVs one in the past and one present was good. I was happy that they had two different narrators - one male, one female. This is perfect leading up to Halloween!
Okay so this definitely lived up to the hype for me!!! I absolutely adored it from start to finish. I love my husband but my gosh I never knew I needed a fisherman in my life!!
Audiobook: Wow! This was a different book. Lots of trigger warnings for this one and it was much darker than I expected especially in the beginning. Narrator was great doing both POVs. Also this cover is FABULOUS!

Audiobook: I wasn’t sure what to expect with this & it being my first Peter Pan retelling. I really enjoyed it and liked it more than Cemetery Boys. There are some of the same characters that we all know from the story but I was surprised that Captain Hook did not play a more prominent role.
Audiobook: Wow! I knew this book was going to be heavy but you still don’t realize it until you’re in it. The story was told between the past and present and thought it was done beautifully. It is a story that sadly needs to be told because it is continuing to be relevant in today’s culture. Also actress Grace Grummer did a fabulous job with narrating the book.
A few trigger warnings: Teacher-student relationship, sexual abuse, suicide

Audiobook: I didn’t know much about the author but finding out she is in a rock band, got my attention. Michelle’s voice was so relaxing as I listened. I could not imagine what it was like for her to record the audio knowing she would have to speak about her mother’s death. It was so beautifully written. Trigger warning: cancer, death of parent
