Romance
Finally got back into romance a few years ago and I’ve been on a rabbit hole dive ever since. I love them and these are some that hit me the hardest
5 star read for me. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll wish you were spending weeks on an island having the kind of problems she has
The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren
This book had me swooning and sobbing and kicking my feet. I STILL think about this book and it’s been years since I read it
Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan
One of my FAV series from this author. Her other 2 trilogies are great too but this is my favorite. It still lives rent free in my head and I read them 3 years ago now. Book 3, Wrecked, is my favorite of the four and I think about them weekly. Highly...
Dirty Air Series by Lauren Asher
Love this book so much. It was the first one I read by Christina Lauren and it still holds a very special place in my heart. Searching for my own Elliot ♥️
Love and Other Words|Paperback
Book 1 in the Never After Series. A dark twist on our childhood stories. Probably not everyone’s cup of tea so tread carefully, but I LOVE this entire series. Scarred (#2) and Crossed (#5) are the best ones hands down. If you love dark romance and mo...
Hooked|Paperback
Can’t NOT have an Abby Jimenez rec on here. I’ve read almost all of her books and she’s hands down one of my favorite authors. Part of Your World and Yours Truly are my favorite books by her. PLEASE check out this duology.
Part of Your World|Paperback
First books I ever read by Rebecca Ross and omg it was so good. The slow burn, the minor enemies to lovers, ROMAN KITT. If you get it, you get it. I devoured this book and its sequel. Amazing
Divine Rivals: A Novel|Hardcover
A bit on the darker side with a morally gray man (my favorite kind). You can’t help but love Christian. My favorite book in the whole series (skip #3 like your life depends on it), and a close second to #2, Twisted Games. They both live rent free in ...
Twisted Lies (Twisted Series #4)|Paperback
Omg the things I could say about this book. I laughed, I cried, I read and reread it. This is by far one of my favorite books to exist (and the movie is pretty good too). The emails made me swoon and the stair and museum scenes are ugly cry worthy. P...
Red, White & Royal Blue|Paperback
This is book 2 in the Dreamland Billionaire series, but it’s my favorite. I have such a soft spot for Declan, the grumpiest man alive. The other books in the series are fantastic too, but this one stole my heart.
Terms and Conditions|Paperback
I’m not a fan of book tok, it’s oversaturated, so I really held out on reading this one but last year my friend recommended it and I trusted her and I’m so glad I did!! This is an amazing duology. I cried, I laughed, I cheered. Everything you wanted ...
One Dark Window (The Shepherd King, #1) by Rachel Gillig
A funny, dark romance story between two sworn enemies. They’re crazy but they’re in love and watching them fumble through it is both hilarious and endearing. And their brothers are pretty damn funny too. The first of a trilogy and their story continu...
Garron Park
This book broke me and put me right back together again. Definitely dark and definitely not for everyone (read the trigger warnings) but oh my. I laughed, I cried, I couldn’t put it down, and at the end all I could do was sit there with it.
God of Fury (Deluxe Edition)|Paperback
A very sweet book about accepting love and handling grief. It’s definitely a slow burn, don’t expect anyone together right away, but it’s worth it. And Rdyer, what a beautifully written character. Willa will grow on you, give her time.
Only When It's Us|Paperback
Darcy
Truly can’t hype her up enough, she is THE reason I started reading supernatural/ horror books and I’ve loved every single one
The first book in the series, Voices in the Snow. This is one of my favorite series. It has just the right amount of scare factor, apocalypse, and family drama. Sprinkle in a little romance and it all makes for one of the best book series around. If ...
Black Winter Series by Darcy Coates
My FAVORITE stand alone by this author. I’ve read nearly everything from her and this book had me hiding under my covers in the middle of the day. Her descriptions, he characters, it’s all gold
From Below by Darcy Coates
This is first book I read from Darcy and it was so good and there were so many twists I wasn’t expecting. Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole read
Hunted by Darcy Coates
Her first YA novel and such a good one. It’s got a little humor and it’s creepy and you feel like you’re THERE while reading it. I was waiting for this to drop for months and it did not disappoint. Such a good spooky season read too
Where He Can't Find You|Paperback
It’s on the shorter side but still so good. Creepy and gory and has plenty of twists and turns. Obviously I’m a massive fan of her regardless, but this is such a good stand alone if you’re looking for a quick spooky read.
Dead of Winter|Paperback
Murder, Mystery
My go to genre, I’ve read a LOT, but these are some of my favorites
Book 1 of 4 of The Collector Series. These books are dark but are tales of survival. They have the found family trope (one of my favorites) Book 4 was absolutely the best and a great way to round out the series. I HIGHLY recommend.
The Butterfly Garden|Paperback
While I have read Stacy’s other books, this has to be my favorite. It was emotional, blurred lines, and had me yelling at pages
All the Dangerous Things: A Novel|eBook
Lisa Jewel is a fantastic author but her books are really hit or miss for me. I either love them or hate them. But this was the first I read from her and it really set the bar so high. It’s my favorite by her and keeps you guessing until the very end
Then She Was Gone|Paperback
So this is way off from my typical reads but I’m so glad I gave it a chance. I truly think about this book too often. It was so good, makes you think, and has you feeling so much for ALL the characters, including ones we maybe shouldn’t. It took me w...
If We Were Villains: A Novel|Paperback
The first in a duology. Such a good book with a lot of twists and turns. And I love the multiple POVs, it really brings the story together. Keeps you guessing until the very end, in true Lisa Jewell fashion.
The Family Upstairs|Paperback
I can’t even begin to explain how much I love these books. I read this series in high school and I STILL think about it to this day. The last 2 books made me cry. I was VERY happy with who she ended up with. You can’t help but love every character in...
The Naturals Paperback Boxed Set|Paperback
You follow three women and their very different lives as they intertwine after each receives a letter from a young woman. It’s a story about womanhood and strength. The twists throughout were mildly expected but still a great book, and I didn’t see t...
Good Husbands: A Novel|Paperback
