Bookish updates in the last 2 weeks
Wow! This Currently Reading post is rather late! I have no excuse other than I was just exhausted last week. It has been a stressful week at work and we had deadlines to meet. I usually get home between 7:30 – 8 PM and I have been sleeping at around 10ish, which is highly unusual for me! Thankfully, I have a Kindle Paperwhite (affiliate link) so it doesn’t smack my face like my old Ipad 2 did! ?
It’s also been unusually cold here in Los Angeles over the last two weeks (and by cold, I mean below 60, LOL) and I have been faaahhreeezing! I also grew up in a tropical country so anything below 70 is considered freezing. LOL


I’m really glad that I have an advanced reader copy of Hello Stranger but I have to admit that it is taking me a longer time to read physical books compared to ebooks. I’m almost done, though and it’s REALLY good!
Never Sweeter is currently 99 cents on Amazon and I snapped it up. This is my first Charlotte Stein book and it’s emotional AF! It is very satisfying seeing a bully grovel, though. Ha!


I don’t know how I feel about The Professional. I guess the Stockholm syndrome trope is not one of my favorites, even though I LOVE Beauty and the Beast.
After enjoyed Pucked so much, I just couldn’t get into Pucked Up. I also had a hard time connecting with the hero and the heroine here. Also, I don’t get the hero at all! He wanted a relationship with the heroine but he was also at a party with lots of girls? I just don’t understand it.

I love the Pucked series, sorry you didn’t enjoy Pucked Up though.
Kei @ The Lovely Pages Reviews recently posted…BOOKISH FEATURES I NEED AND BOOKS I COULD RE-READ FOREVER
I guess it was because I was binge reading it? It may be because of the narrator, too. I was listening to the audiobooks, actually.
You always have the greatest books!! I just got Julia Quinns Romancing Mr. Bridgerton as I had won a copy of Because of Miss Bridgerton, I definitely enjoy her books. Never Sweeter looks awesome!!
Thanks, Joann! I just read Julia Quinn’s Bridgertons last year! 🙂
