Twisted Lies - Book Review

Image
Goodreads Summary: A fake-dating billionaire romance from New York Times bestselling author and BookTok sensation Ana Huang. Charming, deadly, and smart enough to hide it, Christian Harper is a monster dressed in the perfectly tailored suits of a gentleman. He has little use for morals and even less use for love, but he can’t deny the strange pull he feels toward the woman living just one floor below him.

How To Escape The Reading Slump

  Have you ever looked at the book you are currently reading and just felt… nothing? While your book looked at you accusingly and silently judged you for your lack of excitement? If you feel like your urge to read has disappeared - Congratulations: You are in a reading slump. I`ve been there many times and here`s how I got myself out of it.

The Inmate - Book Review

Image
  Goodreads Summary There are three rules Brooke Sullivan must follow as a new nurse practitioner at a men's maximum-security: 1) Treat all prisoners with respect. 2) Never reveal any personal information. 3) Never EVER become too friendly with the inmates. But none of the staff at the prison knows Brooke has already broken the rules. Nobody knows about her intimate connection to Shane Nelson, one of the penitentiary's most notorious and dangerous inmates. And they certainly don't know that Shane was Brooke's high school sweetheart-the star quarterback who is now spending the rest of his life in prison for a series of grisly murders. Or that Brooke's testimony was what put him there. But Shane knows. And he will never forget. Review If you ever find yourself in a reading slump, just pick up a book that was written by Freida McFadden.  I would not describe myself as a (Psycho)Thriller girl, but her books completely ...

Between the pages and paintbrushes

  “We read to know that we are not alone.” - C.S. Lewis Dear Reader, My name is Anais and I consider myself a professional book lover. I created this blog as a space to share what I love: Books that you can`t put down while you read it and can`t stop thinking about when you finish it.  Here, you`ll find book reviews, recommendations and other general book-related content. I don`t know exactly where the journey will take us - but that`s part of trying new things.  I believe that words have the power to soften, awaken and connect. If that resonates with you, then I`m glad you`re here. Feel free to stay a while. - Anais “A home without books is like a body wihtout a soul.”
