3.5 Stars- Likable story, likable characters, but overall, I found the FMC to be really immature for her age. The whole parent trap plot line got under my skin a bit. Despite some decent banter, it was a tad corny. ]]> Review7340619121 Fri, 02 May 2025 14:28:05 -0700 <![CDATA[Jess added 'When We Believed in Mermaids']]> /review/show/7340619121 When We Believed in Mermaids by Barbara O'Neal Jess gave 3 stars to When We Believed in Mermaids (Kindle Edition) by Barbara O'Neal
Perfectly average. Nothing to rave about, but enjoyable enough to finish. I stayed for Javier and Simon. Josie is a piece of shit that never redeems herself ]]> ReadStatus9360549882 Sun, 27 Apr 2025 18:54:14 -0700 <![CDATA[Jess is currently reading 'Ghost of a Gamble']]> /review/show/7524480055 Ghost of a Gamble by J.E.

DNF at 60%: the writing in this book is atrocious. At one point, I started to unintentionally count the word “just� because it showed up in nearly every paragraph. The pacing is off, and the characters are dull. And dude, we get it, you like the show Supernatural. I don’t need to hear about it that much.

I did not want to put this book down! What a story. I was simultaneously disturbed, anxious, and frustrated at any given time. The author is excellent at developing characters and builds suspense so effortlessly as the story progresses. This is one of the rare times that a book should be listened to on audio- one of my favorite voice performances ever. Easily in my top five thrillers ]]> ReadStatus9340870444 Tue, 22 Apr 2025 17:31:35 -0700 <![CDATA[Jess is currently reading 'Out Like a Goddess']]> /review/show/7510791463 Out Like a Goddess by April Canavan Jess is currently reading Out Like a Goddess by April Canavan
