Review | Let’s Get Quizzical – Kelly Ohlert

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I’m starting 2024 off strong by working on a few backlist Netgalley books. Getting eARCs is something I’m still very grateful for, but being a mood reader does make it hard to get to them before release day. Yesterday I finished Let’s Get Quizzical and I want to tell you about the book and what I thought. Keep on reading to find out more!

A big thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an eARC to read and review.

Since last year I keep saying I want to read more thrillers, but I haven’t read that many. So I decided to start 2024 off right by reading That’s Not My Name. I have an eARC (which I’m very grateful for) and I found the audiobook on Storytel. Now that I’ve read this book it’s time to talk about my thoughts. Keep on reading to find out more!

The next book in my reread! And also the only book in the series I’ve reviewed on Goodreads haha. I’ve flown through this one for the reread but also forgot to take notes so this review isn’t going to be super long. Nevertheless, I wanted to share my thoughts so let’s dive in!

Review| Rock Paper Scissors – Alice Feeney

The last few months I’ve slowly started reading and enjoying thrillers more. It’s a new to me genre still, so when I saw a book club on Bookstagram I had to join. This month’s book is Rock Paper Scissors and I decided to listen to the audiobook before my vacation started. Today I want to tell you about this book and what I thought!

Review| Where I Belong – J. Daniels

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

J. Daniels is an author I will read anything by and my love of her books started with the Alabama Summer series. I actually read these books in May 2017, so just a few months before starting this blog. This week I decided to do a re-read of the first book in this series, Where I Belong. I had the audiobook and loved every minute of this book again, so I decided it was time to share that love for this series. Keep on reading to find out more about the book and what I thought of this book!

Review| The Guncle – Steven Rowley

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

Instagram is a place I get a lot of my book recommendations and when The Guncle released in May I saw it all over the place. So many readers were really enthusiastic and I have to say it caught my attention. I’m always afraid of hyped books, because my expectations definitely increase when a book is so loved. I still picked it up and want to talk about what I thought about The Guncle today! Did it live up to my expectations? Keep on reading to find out!

Review | The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things – Carolyn Mackler

Published on by The Book Dutchesses2 Comments

The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things is an older book that got a modern makeover on its 15th anniversary. I ended up reading this, because I requested The Universe is Expanding and so Am I on Netgalley way too long ago, haha. I didn’t realize it was the sequel when I did.

So I decided to listen to the first book on Storytel, so I can finally tackle one of the overdue ARCs on Netgalley. Keep on reading to find out what I thought of The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things.

Review | 10 Things I Hate About Pinky – Sandhya Menon

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

I love 10 Things I Hate About You so of course I’m going to be intrigued by a book called 10 Things I Hate About Pinky. At the start of the year I read Of Curses and Kisses by Sandhya Menon but was pretty disappointed by it. Everyone seems to love the When Dimple met Rishi books so I decided to give Pinky a go! And I was not disappointed at all. Let’s dive into my review.  Continue reading “Review | 10 Things I Hate About Pinky – Sandhya Menon” →

Review| Heroine – Mindy McGinnis

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

After reading Be Not Far From Me earlier this year, I was really curious about Mindy McGinnis’ other books. Heroine was one I’ve seen around for awhile and saw that it was available on Storytel. I can tell you that this author really knows how to suck you into a story!

I do want to start off by saying that this book has major trigger warnings. Before you read this book, you should know that drug use/abuse, overdosing, addiction and even goes into detail how these drugs are used. Be warned when you pick it up!
