THE GEOGRAPHY OF YOU AND ME by Jennifer E. Smith

November 11, 2014

THE GEOGRAPHY OF YOU AND ME by Jennifer E. SmithWhen I finished reading The Geography of You and Me, I wasn’t terribly impacted but I could appreciate the good parts of the book. The thing about life is that a lot of experiences are so outrageous, we’d be in utter disbelief were we to read about them in a book.

THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US by Kasie West

September 6, 2014

THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US by Kasie WestIt happened! I like a book precisely because of the romance. Of course there’re other factors involved but The Distance Between Us swept me off my feet. It was sweet, good light-hearted fun reading this book. I found so many reasons to laugh from the beginning right through to the end, which I loved. I like books that make me laugh. They’re such stress-relievers and wonderful distractions.

They were realistic, they were intense, and all the dynamics between team mates and competitors were so on point, I recognised a lot of the situations both Sloane Emily and Sloane Devon found themselves in.

THE ALMOST TRUTH by Eileen Cook

April 30, 2014

I think The Almost Truth is a great book for times when nothing but a light-hearted book will do. We all know those days when we want to read but our minds just won’t focus on anything that requires us to think all too much for ourselves. Not to knock The Almost Truth for being…

THE STATISTICAL PROBABILITY OF LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT by Jennifer E. Smith

March 10, 2014

Alright, this is going to be one of my shortest reviews, I think. Even though there weren’t very many surprises left in the book with the blurb that has been included with the book, I can’t deny the cuteness factor of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight. In fact, this is one of…
