Hi guys! Welcome to another edition of the mutiny.
What’s the mutiny you ask? Well, I have always said that I wasn’t going to become a review blog and yet, I’ve had this itch in the back of my head… so here we are. I’m waging a mutiny against myself and I’m going to do some mini reviews + feature upcoming reads I’m excited about.
For this specific edition, I’m going to share some my favorite reads from May, so settle in!
Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson — 5★ — This one took some time for me to get into it, but once I got invested, I was all over it. I loved Elisabeth and Nathaniel and I don’t have any words for Silas and his awesome. I loved the story and the magic and I needed just a little more from the ending.
The Rogue of Fifth Avenue by Joanna Shupe — 5★ — I was basically in love with the entire Four Hundred series as they came out, so I’m absolutely here for any new series from Joanna. I loved Mamie and Frank and their banter and chemistry. This was a great start to a new series and I’m hoping hoping hoping that Mamie’s sister gets the next book.
The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren — 5★ — Hate to love written by Lo & C. Enough said.
Brazen and the Beast by Sarah MacLean — 5★ — I’m pretty sure everyone knows how obsessed I am with Wicked and the Wallflower, so when I got approved for Brazen, I legit screamed and may or may not have ditched work a bit early to start it. It was just as amazing as I was expecting and I’ve read it 4 times.
Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams — This book just sounds like so much fun. A husband who finds a secret men’s book club that reads historical romance? count. me. in.
Mine by Courtney Cole — I recently received a copy of this and actually devoured it yesterday after getting hooked while looking for a quote to post on IG. It’s an interesting premise and I really liked it.
Waiting for Tom Hanks by Kerry Winfrey — I love the synopsis of this one and I’m eager to see how this meet-cute obsessed heroine meets her man.
What about you? Have you read any of these books or do you want to?
I am hoping to get my hands on Sorcery of Thorns and Waiting for Tom Hanks this year. Hope your June is going well!
Hooray! I hope you enjoy both of them!
Thanks for reading and commenting!!
I’m so excited for Sorcery of Thorns! I can’t wait until I get my copy! I actually didn’t love The Unhoneymooners ? Mostly because I really disliked the ending. And The Bromance Book Club looks super cute! I really love the cover! Every time I see it I feel so happy!
Oooh, I hope you love Sorcery!! I can’t wait to see what you think of it. What part of the ending of Unhoneymooners did you dislike? I’m curious…
Thanks for reading and commenting!
Thanks! I did not like how everything with Dane was handled. I feel like Ethan gas-lighted Olive a bit when she tried telling him about Dane. And they never discussed that properly before Olive forgave him because now she’s a new, forgiving person. I felt that whole bit could have used more nuance and discussion.
