It Happened One Summer (Bellinger Sisters # 1) Review!

Hi Foreverbookers,  How are you all. I hope you’re well! I’ve just finished “It Happened One Summer” by Tessa Bailey and I LOVED it!  5 Stars! “It Happened One Summer” is about sisters, Piper and Hannah who need to move to a seaside town after living in LA for their whole lives. This first book, in what I assume is just a duet is primarily about Piper, the elder sibling and seeing her learn to accept herself and become someone new and improved. “It Happened One Summer” read like a literary fiction novel. It was very dense in terms of words and word count more specifically, I thought. What could have been said in one or two sentences was made into long drawn out paragraphs, which in some instances was fine but the novel could have been at least 100 pages less, I think.

Misadventures With A Professor by Sierra Simone Review

  Hi ForeverBookers,  How are you? I hope you’re well!  I’ve just finished this taboo smutty romance and it was soooo good! I WISH it had been longer!  I read this for two readathons. Reading Rivalry - featuring a life changing event. It’s a spoiler if I reveal what this is so I won’t but it’s gooood if you like a certain trope.  The Beauty and the beast readathon - MC loves Books - Zandy works with books!  5 Stars! Zandy, our female perspective wants to lose her virginity so hooks up with Oliver. What she doesn’t know after that first hookup is that Oliver is her professor. I loved the taboo-ness of this short novella. It was like the 2 characters couldn’t get enough of each other but then they remembered that they shouldn’t be ripping each other’s clothes off so stopped, but went back for more in the next chapter.  There’s a twist at the end that I won’t spoil but it’s my favourite trope in a romance book! I can’t WAIT to read the other Sierra Simone books I own now!
