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…

GAME ON (The Academy #1) by Monica Seles & James LaRosa

March 8, 2014

When I picked up Game On, I did so because I recognized the author’s name. Monica Seles. Anyone who grew up in a household that almost always had tennis running on TV would’ve recognized her name. If not for the former Word number 1’s 9 Grand Slam titles, then for the 1993 stabbing. Naturally I…

Historical Fiction is not usually my preferred genre. Unless the history that is involved is from two centuries ago or so, then I’m more likely to reconsider picking up such a book. Recent history though is not one of my preferences when it comes to fiction. Maybe I’m still hung on choosing to study History…

MY LIFE NEXT DOOR (My Life Next Door #1) by Huntley Fitzpatrick

February 19, 2014

I’m not sure if I would’ve enjoyed My Life Next Door as much as I did had I read a physical book of it myself. There’s no doubt I would’ve liked it just not quite as much. As it is, My Life Next Door is the kind of book I very much enjoy listening to…
