Review: Mickey Chambers Shakes It Up - Charish Reid - June 2023

I tried to make June a month of reading my print books, but something I have discovered is that the print books I have had sitting on my shelf are well boring and so thank god for ebooks and my Kindle as I get to have amazing titles like this one. Mickey Chambers Shakes it Up was such a good read as we meet Mickey who teaches at the local university English classes as an adjunct professor. However, with more teachers coming in, her class load this summer is very light which means that she needs to pick up another job. Especially since the price of her thyroid medication is rising. It's times like this that I am glad that I live in New Zealand as we do not have the same problem as the US when it comes to medication costs as America. Mickey picks up a job bartending at a local bar owned by Diego Acosta. Diego has decided to go back to University. What happens though when Diego discovers that his teacher happens to be the new bartender Mickey? The one he has started to feel feelings for, the first person he has been interested in and can see a future with since his wife passed away? Mickey has relit the light in his life, one that has been dimmed since his wife died. Can Mickey open her whole self to Diego or will it backfire when he sees her sick one day and his worries about his wife come back? Find out in this #ownvoices Black and Hispanic characters contemporary romance, this story also contains F/F and an ex-Amish who discovered she loved the Englisch life on her Rumspringa and never went back.  There is something for everyone in Charish Reid's new book Mickey Chambers Shakes It Up and also who knows you might also discover along the way a new favourite alcoholic beverage.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program.

Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
