This book is a total hit in our house! My little one laughs every time we read it. She loves “pushing” the button, shaking the book, and seeing what silly thing happens to Larry next.
The illustrations are bright and adorable, the humor is perfect f...
Don't Push the Button! Interactive Book

These books were AMAZING. I got so unbelievably addicted that I was finishing each one in about two days and then immediately panicking because I needed the next one.
I loved how the story weaves together versions of the past and the future — it kep...
Uglies Boxed Set: Uglies, Pretties, Specials, Extras
In this world, cyborgs aren’t considered real citizens and can be turned in at any time. The plague can strike anyone, and cyborgs (like Cinder, our heroine) are taken to be used for plague research — with their families being paid for their “sacrifi...
Cinder - Marissa Meyer: Books
This book is amazing! I loved how immersive it is — it honestly felt like I was inside a video game while reading it. The descriptions and details are so vivid that you feel like you are the main character experiencing everything firsthand. I definit...
Induction: A Litrpg Apocalypse (Multiverse)
I absolutely loved this book. The world-building is so detailed, the magic system is incredibly thought-out, and the main characters are the kind you can’t help but root for. The way the magic works — and the clear limitations on what each type can d...
Sufficiently Advanced Magic (Arcane Ascension)
When the Moon Hatched (The Moonfall Series) really pulled me in from the start. The story has a strong sense of mystery and emotion, and it does a great job of building a unique fantasy world that feels both imaginative and intense.
The characters a...

I really enjoyed The Ballad of Falling Dragons (Deluxe Limited Edition). The book itself is a great read, but the deluxe edition honestly made the experience feel even more special. It’s one of those books you immediately want to display on your shel...

I really enjoyed As You Wake, Break the Shell. It’s one of those books that pulls you in with its atmosphere and keeps you thinking long after you’ve put it down.

As You Wake, Break the Shell a book by Becky Chambers
Spicy 🌶️ books
This book was really interesting! It took me a bit to get into since I listened to the audiobook, but once everything started clicking halfway through, I was hooked. I loved not being able to figure things out right away — it kept me guessing and ful...
A Deal with the Shadow King (Curse of the Fae #1)
Y’all. I cannot even. 😭
This book… I can’t even describe how good it is. The tension. The love. The lust. I am HERE for all of it.
Every time one of them is alone with Charlie, it’s a whole new story. But when they’re all together? CHAOS. A force ...
Charlie (Love Sequence #1) by Daphne Leigh
I loved this story! Just when you think you know where it’s headed, it completely throws you for a loop. The twists keep you hooked, and the character development is so well done.
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
This book should honestly come with a warning label.
Hands down one of the best erotic paranormal romances I’ve read in a long time. There was very little I didn’t like, but what really sold it for me were the main characters.
Trey and Taryn are no...
Feral Sins (The Phoenix Pack #1) by Wright

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥
This was my first SJ Tilly read and yeah… I’m a fan for life. No take-backs. ❤️ This book grabbed me by the throat and refused to let go, and honestly? I thanked it. I devoured this in two days (definitely ...
Nero (Alliance, #1) by S.J. Tilly
This was exactly the kind of wolf romance I was in the mood for. Fated mates? ✔️ Rejection? ✔️ Groveling? ✔️ Some spicy moments? ✔️ It checked all the trope boxes I love. There are also a couple of mystery plotlines mixed in, which actually made the ...
Fated to the Wolf Prince (The Hunted Omegas, #1)
I DEVOURED this series. Like… couldn’t stop, didn’t want to stop, fully emotionally invested. The character growth is everything, and the main character is not a weak, helpless FMC — she figures it out, fights for herself, and proves everyone wrong. ...
Empyrean Series 3-Book Set by Rebecca Yarros
This is very much a boy-and-girl-next-door kind of romance, and you get to watch their love story unfold year by year. It’s not a straight, easy path to forever—but honestly, whose love story is? They face misconceptions, family issues, and the chall...
The Girl Next Door (The Next Door Duet)
I’ve really been enjoying the Into Darkness Series. It’s one of those series that pulls you in pretty quickly and keeps building as you go, with a darker tone that makes everything feel more intense and engaging.
The story has a strong sense of atmo...

Summer Breakfast Recipes: Waffles & Pancakes
After setting up a home bar, I needed a reliable go-to resource for drink recipes, and this book fit that need really well. Other books I looked at were either too limited to specific types of liquor or too narrow in scope, but this one offers a much...
