Full Moon Over Freedom (Milagro Street, #2)

FULL MOON OVER FREEDOM, the second installment in the Milagro Street series by Angelina M. Lopez, delves into Gillian Armstead-Bancroft's quest for self-discovery. Gillian returns to her hometown with her life crumbling, determined to break the curse that has stripped her of her magical abilities. When she reunites with Nicky, an old lover and an artist in town, their passionate connection resurfaces, but both are burdened by their own curses. While the book featured a cute and passionate romance, it didn't captivate me as much as the first installment did. Gillian's relatability couldn't compensate for a lack of engagement in her POV compared to her sister Alex's. The story focused on Gillian's life problems, but the build-up in the romance felt somewhat rushed due to their prior history. Nevertheless, the book is a good romance with a strong female protagonist and will appeal to those who enjoy magical realism.

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her by Liz Plum My rating: 3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves by Ingrid Chabbert My rating: 5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
