Review: Songs Unfinished – Holly Stratimore

Review: Songs Unfinished – Holly Stratimore

Songs Unfinished is a beautiful love story featuring great characters, music, friendship and romance – well written and sounding true, I both had tears in my eyes at times, and good laughs at other times. My Songs Unfinished review: I enjoyed all the different parts of Songs Unfinished. Shawn and Jaymi both are very well done characters, and they both have to come to terms with their pasts so they can start living in the present, and plan their future. Story-wise, I was enchanted, both because I could relate to characters I don’t have much in common with in real life, and because they are both musicians and I love music. What the characters have been through in the past […]

Review: Frenemy of the People – Nora Olsen

*I received a free ARC of Frenemy of the People from Bold Strokes Books, Inc via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Frenemy of the People is a really interesting and tender story, both because of the LGBT angle but also because the two main characters are both well done, fleshed out and manage to see behind the façade they are both keeping up.

And especially Lexie is always willing to educate herself, and […]

Review: Because of Her – K.E. Payne

*I received a free ARC of Because of Her from Bold Strokes Books via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Because of Her is a different kind of YA romance, as it involves a main character who is lesbian, and not afraid anymore because she has figured out that people who judge her are not the ones who would really be her true friends and present in her life anyway. After moving to London, she is upset with the whole world because she is far away from her girlfriend, Amy. Tabby has new friends in school, and they are very supportive of her in every way. There is also this girl she can’t help but watch from afar. Eden […]
