October Recap

Hey, ladies!



I can't believe October's come and gone! It was an insane, hectic, emotional roller coaster of a month, but overall it was a good one. Now, if the weather could cool off from the mid-upper 80s and high humidity, that'd be great. You know, maybe make it feel like November just a little?

Favorites:

Oh Ansel!!! This book just made me insanely happy. 

Another fantastic installment! 

Sigh. So much love for this one. 

One of my favorites for the year!

Biggest Disappointment

This wasn't bad, per say, just didn't live up to its hype for me. The hero gave me the major creeps. Can't believe she stayed with him.

Best Smut

Fan-fucking-tastic porn right here. The whole serious is delectable. 

Most Surprising 

Best Protagonists 

Kate, of course! 

Sam and Levee. <3

Delilah, and also Gallagher. One of the most interesting characters of the year!

Worst Protagonist

Kacey. Again, not bad, just kinda blah. 

Book Boyfriends of The Month

I'd like Ansel for Christmas, please and thank you. <3 I absolutely adored the sweet, filthy boy. 

Sam!!! If there ever was a swoon-worthy hero, it's him.
