This is a book I downloaded for free quite a while ago.  I think it was one of the first books I downloaded for my Nook that wasn’t an e-galley.  Now that I’ve read it, just as with other books like this I read for the last COYER challenge, I can’t believe I waited for […]

For my 3rd audiobook to listen to, I chose this one because it was narrated by the author, and I am a huge fan of Mindy Kaling, especially after her show.  This was so much fun to listen to. The book goes through her family life, growing up, school, college, moving to NYC, getting jobs […]

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting.  My choice this week is the sequel to a book I read and enjoyed last year.  It was called H20 then, but is now called The Rain I guess.  I believe the egalley is […]

First, I have to thank the author who sent me a copy of this in exchange for an honest review.  I had entered a giveaway on Goodreads but didn’t win.  She emailed me on Goodreads and offered to send me a copy.  I was very excited and of course said yes because I’d been wanting […]
