Even Angels Fall

I was lucky enough to get an advanced reader copy of "Even Angels Fall" by Elisabeth Garner. The story follows Evie and Bernie and Christopher. Evie and Bernie are two best friends, living their best lives and supporting each other. They both find someone to love around the same time, only for one of them it doesn't turn out to be a good situation. Bernie finds Charlie, an incredible human with so much confidence it's intimidating as hell and yet I want to be friends with them. Evie begins a relationship with Gavin, who in the beginning seems almost too good to be true.....Fun fact, he is. Christopher is a shy introvert who is pulled into Evie and Bernie's orbit and falls madly in love with Evie but manages to become one of her best friends while being respectful of her relationship with Gavin and never once telling her his feelings. First a disclaimer this book does talk about an emotionally abusive relationship so that can be triggering to some. Hell I had to p

Accidental Thriller Reads

Writers that pull you into their writing until you have to be practically screamed at pull yourself back out of the novel, writers that pull you in to the point of you feeling genuine fear and sadness are the best kind of writers.

I say I read everything but let's be honest, I am a good novel, historical fiction, fantasy and romance girl. I am the biggest scaredy-cat (not counting my cat of course because that poor animal is a bigger mess than me). I have nightmares if I watch a horror film. I can't read a murder mystery unless I read the entire thing before I next sleep or I will have nightmares and freak out. I need happy en

Never stop dreaming

Dreams are the foundation for everything. Why do we pursue careers, degrees, that weight loss program? We pursue these things because we have a dream, a dream of what the future could be, if we get that degree, if we get that job, if we lose those pounds. Dreams give us the drive we need to accomplish things. I was originally looking for an uplifting book, a cheesy romance novel to get me through a rough patch in both work and personal life. Something I could relax into as I commuted to and from work, the only alone time I was getting. However, what I stumbled upon was so much more. This novel was not the calm easy romance I was expecting. This novel was heart wrenching, I found myself following the roller coaster of emotion. Sometimes it was cheesy, sometimes I sat there wondering how on earth Shay could be so calm, collected, full of grace, that there was no way if it was real life she would be rolling with the punches so much. Yet in those moments my mind kept going back to a part
