Love and Luck by Jenna Evans Welch

Hi guys! Today I will be reviewing Love and Luck by Jenna Evans Welch. Let me start off by saying that I was definitely not disappointed by this book! After having read the first novel, I was slightly afraid that another book wouldn't live up to the first one, or that they would be too similar or something, but they weren't! They were completely different! And it was refreshing and even though it wasn't exactly what I had thought it was going to be, it was still great! I went into this book, wanting, needing that perfect summer, fluffy, contemporary book that was filled with romance. And although it wasn't exactly filled with romance and wasn't exactly fluffy all the time but I still really, really enjoyed it.  The relationships between the characters were excellent and especially the brother-sister relationships that were so prominently shown throughout the entire novel were so great to read about.

Hi guys! If you happened to see my updated little side page for my currently reading then you already know what I am currently reading, but I haven't done one of these in a long time, so I wanted to.

And I really, really, REALLY liked Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch. And this one is a little different. I haven't heard much about it because it just came out in May, but I am hoping that it will be at least as good as Love and Gelato (althou...

The Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli

Hi guys! Today I will be reviewing The Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli. Let me start off by saying that with all of the hype that is surrounded by this book, I had super high expectations going into it and it did not live up to those expectations. With hihg-fantasy novels, I am expecting a great deal; a developed world, a fast-paced-action-packed plot, well-rounded characters that I feel some sort of attachment to. Sadly, this book did not hit all of those marks. Which I think might be my fault with myself setting such a high expectation for it. Although I thought that the writing style itself was good, as in how Ciccarelli did her sentence structure and flow I thought was very good, I thought that she didn't really develop the story enough in a way. I never really got attached to any of the characters, except for maybe Torwin a little bit. I just thought that for a high-fantasy, not enough stuff was happening really. For books with a slow build I personally feel l...
