Happy Friday my loves, and welcome to June! I hope May treated you well.

I’m currently two books ahead of schedule for my reading goals (24 out of 52 books) and am SO proud of myself! Last year I read 35 books, and am feeling really confident I can make it all the way to my goal of one book a week this year. Here’s a quick glance at what I’m currently working through.


đź‘‘ The Queen of Nothing, Holly Black

  • I just finished The Wicked King on my work trip last week and immediately needed to dive into The Queen of Nothing because HOLY CLIFF HANGER was that a whirlwind!! Unlike most trilogy’s, I heard that TQON is an amazing wrap up of The Folk of the Air trilogy and I’m itching to see where our crazy cadre in Elfame ends up.

⛸️ Tell Me How You Hate Me, Cali Melle

  • Thank you to Cali and Valentine PR for this ARC! Tell Me How You Hate Me is a one night stand, enemies to lovers, figure skating sports romance between aloof Leo and assertive Aria. Additional tropes (if you’re into knowing ahead of time) include forced proximity, one bed, sibling’s best friend, and workplace romance. TMHOHM is out June 24th, and available to purchase on Amazon!

👩🏻‍🚀 A Love Beyond the Stars, Jennifer Chipman

  • Thank you to Jennifer for allowing me to Alpha and Beta read her latest novel, her first dip into sci-fi romance! This Star Trek inspired tale follows Aurelia and Silas, pilot and captain of the S.S. Paradise on their quest to find adventure - and maybe love. If this sounds up your alley, you can snag a signed copy or a PR box from Jenn’s website, or you can read & purchase from Amazon on June 28th.

âšľ Walkoff Wedding, Maren Moore

  • Okay I’m not technically reading this right now so much as I am stalking Maren’s instagram account for every crumb of content she posts before sending out ARCs this month, BUT I’m hopeful that I’ll be adding this to my Kindle collection soon!! Either way, I’m so excited for this last installment in the Orleans University baseball romance trilogy, out June 28th!
