Books I’ve read/ ratings

1 day agoEdited to

... Read moreSharing my journey through these books has been an enriching experience, and I wanted to extend my thoughts beyond just the ratings. One of the standout books for me was 'Slammed' by Colleen Hoover, which I truly found addictive — a perfect mix of humor, emotion, and spice that kept me hooked throughout. Sometimes, the depth of the characters and plot twists like in 'Plot Twist' by Robin Lefler or the atmospheric allure of 'The Divine Dark' by Bree Despain make the reading experience unforgettable despite a slow start. Books like 'Mini-Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us' offer a refreshing and light perspective, ideal for quick but meaningful reading sessions. Conversely, some books that are steamy and intense, such as works by Erin La Rosa, added excitement, although I occasionally found the backstories less appealing. It’s fascinating to see how different authors create unique atmospheres through their storytelling, from fun and fresh fiction to more serious emotional journeys. What I’ve learned through my reading is that every book brings something special—whether it’s the laughter, tears, or thoughtful reflection it inspires. Also, sometimes a book’s movie adaptation might not live up to the original, like with 'It Ends With Us' by Colleen Hoover, making the book a more rewarding experience. My advice for fellow readers is to embrace a variety of genres and authors to find what speaks to your soul the most. There's nothing like discovering a book that feels like it was written just for you, whether it’s a main-stream bestseller or a hidden gem that's fresh and different.

Soooo here is the real deal on these books in MY opinion, you don’t have to agree with any of these. Ice Planet Barbarians- This book had a great plot while also having descriptive spicy scenes. The spice scenes alone are 10/10 but the plot actually has the depth to keep my adhd self engaged.
