First Line Friday – 3 November 2017 – Charming the Troublemaker (Pepper Basham)

Welcome to another edition of First Line Friday, hosted by Hoarding Books. I have been looking forward to the book I’m featuring this week for SO. LONG. And I can’t believe I’ve actually had to wait until right now to read it. I’ve had an advance reader copy sitting on my Kindle for at least TWO weeks now, and I’ve had to wait, because, well, life and stuff. 😩 But I am happily ensconced in its pages now. What is it, you ask? Charming the Troublemaker by Pepper Basham! Book two in the Mitchell’s Crossroads series, and if you’ve ever read any of

Top Ten Tuesday – Book Boyfriends

Well! This is quite possibly the most difficult Top Ten Tuesday post I have ever had to put together, because the topic for this week from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is Top Ten Book Boyfriends. Now, I’m a happily married, strictly monogamous woman, but I’m sure you can all relate to having developed a little crush on (okay, maybe flat-out swooned over) characters you’ve met in books. Today is all about those characters! But there’s just one problem. Do you know how many books I’ve read in my lifetime? (Seriously, because I think it would be kind

Top Ten Tuesday – Books That Feature Adorkable Heroines

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post. This week’s topic from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is Ten Books That Feature Characters ___________. The blank is where we are free to define which characters we want to feature, and so I thought I would introduce you to some adorkable heroines. What’s adorkable, you ask? It’s a combination between adorable and dork, and I have to credit Pepper Basham’s upcoming release Charming the Trouble Maker for introducing me to this particular word. According to Pepper, it perfectly describes the hero, Dr. Alex Murdock: Silly in an adorable kind of way—the kind of silly

Top Ten Tuesday – My Fall (ahem Spring) TBR

I’m back to Top Ten Tuesday after a two-week hiatus! And this week’s topic from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is one of those topics that I don’t even pretend to limit myself to a mere ten books! However, I have managed to be somewhat restrained. Limiting this list to books that are actually releasing between September and November went a long way towards that restraint! And obviously, this is actually my Spring TBR, because here in the antipodes, spring is in the air! September Read my reviews for Crown of Souls, A New Shade of Summer,

Weekend Book Buzz – 9/10 September

Welcome to another edition of the Weekend Book Buzz. There’s plenty been happening around the place, and not enough time to keep up with it all. But for what it’s worth, here’s a bit of a run down for you!

Top Ten Tuesday – Under-loved Favourites

I’m going slightly rogue today for Top Ten Tuesday. The girls at The Broke and the Bookish have given the topic Ten Hidden Gems in X Genre. Well, I’m not limiting myself to one genre. That’s too difficult. And I’ve decided to be a little more specific on the ‘hidden gems’ part. I’m going to champion some of my favourite reads that have less than 50 reviews on Amazon.

Romance Rendezvous with Pepper Basham!

I’m going to go ahead and make a wild guess that many of my readers enjoy romance. Safe bet, do you think? Well, I do. Both think it’s a safe bet and enjoy romance! And if you want to talk romance, who better to rendezvous with than Pepper Basham, the Queen of Swoony?! Okay, so it’s an unofficial title, but I think anyone who’s read one of Pepper’s novels would know that swooning and Pepper go hand in hand.
