The Perfect Guy Doesn’t Exist by Sophie Gonzales
Queen B’s Decree: The Perfect Guy Doesn’t Exist starts out pretty cute and funny. Ivy had a break-up with her best friend/crush last year, and has been deeply into her fandom. Her favorite show is H-MAD, a show about magical teenagers, and she’s been writing fan fiction. One night after her parents are gone on […]
Flawless by Elsie Silver
Happily Never After by Lynn Painter
Queen B’s Decree: I can’t resist a Lynn Painter rom com. The way she uses “moron” or “dipshit” as affectionate terms of endearment just works for me. I loved so much of the banter in Happily Never After. Whether it was between Sophie and Max, or between her elderly roommates (LARRY FOREVER), I felt like […]
The Other Lola by Ripley Jones
Queen B’s Decree: The Other Lola picks up after Missing Clarissa ended, featuring my favorite two teenage sleuths, Cam and Blair. The mystery kept me guessing; I never knew what to expect. And once again, the characters stole my heart. I love that Cam and Blair are flawed and make mistakes. They still remind me […]
Love Under the Microscope by Emi Leon
Queen B’s Decree: Love Under the Microscope really felt like a traditional rom com, with Zelda and Parker on opposing sides, but coming together for a common goal. It was filled with witty banter and zany and ridiculous situations. Did I find it funny and humorous? Yes. Did it feel over the top and that […]
Where the Old Roses Grow by Gracie Gable
Queen B’s Decree: Where the Old Roses Grow is the story of Rose and Jahi, a slow progression from teacher and parent, to friends, and eventually to romantic partners. The book itself is actually a collection of seven novella size stories, kind of like a serial. I found the dialogue to be a little stilted […]
Mate Me by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane
Billionaire Unexplained: Kaleb by J.S. Scott
Queen B’s Decree: J.S. Scott’s Billionaire series are always very satisfying reads, and Kaleb’s was more of the same. Kaleb and Anna are both kind of floundering in their personal life (professional is no big deal, hello, we’re talking billionaire here) when they meet. I love that their relationship started as friends and flourished and […]
Watching You by Lisa Jewell
Queen B’s Decree: Watching You really gives you a small town feel, where everyone is watching everyone else, all up in their business. The narrators are a few different characters, and they are all neighbors on a single street. The timeline goes back and forth a bit, and it makes it a little hard to […]
