January 2018 Faves

Happy New Year, you guys. We've had a month to make (and/or break) resolutions and to make this year our beotch. So far, so good? Yeah...so far, so good. Lots of good reads, lots of good vibes, and lots of hope for a great 2018. 

While this list is short this month, it is absolutely perfect reading: the books listed have depth, romance, and will leave you thinking of these characters for days, weeks, months, and years after you've put the books down. 

If they look good to you, click on the image and it'll take you to Amazon where you can find out more.

The Fish Series by Suanne Laqueur-- I first fell head over heels for the writing of Suanne Laqueur during my Thanksgiving break.  The Venery Series is freaking fantastic and so when I was bedridden with the stupid flu over my midterm break I read The Fish Series. Of course I fell in love with it and was miserable when I had to let them go (see our reviews here, here, and here) but I'm thrilled that Laqueur is currently working on something new and I am so eager to see how she completely destroys me with whatever she creates.

The Idea of You by Robinne Lee-- Speaking of being completely destroyed, The Idea of You ruined me. I have yet to read another novel that speaks to me the way this one did. It tackles so many issues relevant to me, as an aging woman and mother, and I'm not ready to let it go. This was my first read of the new year and it will be one that I know I'll come back to again and again (to read and rec). If you haven't read this one, it's a MUST (see our gushy review here).
