Book review: The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren

The Soulmate EquationThe Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The book was relatable in the context of how hopeless life sometimes feels on the romantic front when you have too many responsibilities and too little time. More on the front that dating truly is more exhausting than anything else.
The vibe on the intimacy front was a bit flat. The brooding man was nice but somehow things weren’t that gripping. Data and science were nice learning experiences, and they were different stuff for me.
Other than that I guess 3.5 stars from me. Also,
TELL ME THEIR SCORE!!!

Book review: One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig

One Dark Window (The Shepherd King, #1)One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was well written. The twisted poetries were a thing that kept me ensnared. The names. Elspeth and Ravyn. Ah… I like new and different names. Beautifully written. A good combination of Horror, Fantasy, Magic and Romance.
Some villain inside the head who is was suspecting will become a hero. Let’s see how it pans out in the next book. Loving the pace and characters. Favourite so far being Elspeth and Elm. Hated most of course Ione and Hauth.

Book review: Funny Story by Emily Henry

Funny StoryFunny Story by Emily Henry
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book has torn me apart. The way Emily portrays the raw emotions hooks inside and pulls you from your intestines.
First of the first, my heart fell out of my stomach when I read the name of Protagonist Daphne Vincent. It was my pen name for some time and just felt too cruel to read it kinda tauntingly in a romance book.
The emotions that Daphne is feeling at 84% of the book. The eternal wait, being chosen the last, being a backup, all of those intricacies are told in such a thoughtful and deep manner that I had no choice but to put the book down weeping and write the heaviness I feel about. It’s heartbreaking and I hate Peter and Sadie and her Dad. I feel so deeply for her, this Daphne. She deserves to be happy. She deserves not to wait for people to show up and for some reliable people to just be in her life to stop her from questioning her worth.
The Guy is the best book boyfriend ever.
With Emily's writing I am not usually looking for the heat or smut but the way she makes the sentences so wholesome, the analogies that she draws from the depths of mundane life examples. I love what she writes, Just like Emma here says, "I can happily read her grocery list as well"

Book review: Apprentice to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer

Apprentice to the Villain (Assistant to the Villain, #2)Apprentice to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was an okayish book. The drama of the first book was good enough but it stretched too long in this one too. I wanted some closure for the Villain and his assistant but alas there's one more book and I can't read this more or wait for it to give me closure. The drama should have been shorter and made more sense. Uff. Giving up. Too many gapsing, flinching and loud emotions in the series what was interesting in the first book was eventually irritating in the second one. I don't know I wanted more. More of them, more essence and the stupid POV's of the side characters? No, thank you!
