Tia Williams Did It Again ✨

Audre & Bash Are Just Friends by Tia Williams — another hit! 💕 This YA romance had me hooked from the start! I’d give it a solid 8/10. The ending was so sweet and satisfying. 🥹✨

Tia Williams really knows how to write side characters—I found myself wanting more of Sparrow’s story! Still, I really enjoyed the progression of Audre and Bash’s relationship. Their chemistry felt so natural. 💫

I also loved the subtle references to Seven Days in June and the small update on Eva and Shane — it left me wanting more of both couples! 🖤📚

Tia Williams has done it again. Ricki and Ezra's love story was truly magical. Ms. Della was truly her fairy godmother. I love Ricki's character and how she was unafraid to be herself or go after her dreams. She didn't follow behind her awful sisters (Thank GOD!). I like Ezra's char
