The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware

The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I do not know why, but this seemed much longer than it really was. I normally read a book within a day or two, and this one took me over a week to get through.

It started off pretty strong, but there were so many things that happened that had nothing to do with anything as the story went on. There were also some things discussed that I would have liked to see developed more.

I was not a huge fan of the second half of this story. I was losing interest and just kept pushing through since I was so far along.

Deviant by Sheridan Anne

Deviant by Sheridan Anne
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I have been wanting to read something from Sheridan Anne for a while now as several of her series have been on my wish list. I was so excited to jump into The Boys of Winter series as I have heard so many amazing things. I have now read books 1-3 and I am not disappointed.

This is unlike anything I have ever read before. It is not going to be for the weak of heart. If you also do not love multiple love interests, this will not be for you. Triggers for sex trafficking, adult content, and more.

Books two and three are just as quick to listen to on audio as book one. I flew through them. The narrator makes it very easy to listen to these on a faster speed which I loved.

Like the others, this picks up right where we ended in the previous book. I feel the same about this one as I did books one and two. There is so much going on and everything is over the top. I would have liked to keep things a little more realistic. I still do not connect the ages of the characters with everything going on either.

The ending on this one will have you questioning what is going to happen and how everything is going to end.

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I have been wanting to read something from Sheridan Anne for a while now as several of her series have been on my wish list. I was so excited to jump into The Boys of Winter series as I have heard so many amazing things. If you start this series, each book ends in a major cliff hanger which will leave you wanting to read more.


This is unlike anything I have ever read before. It is not going to be for the weak of heart. If you also do not love multiple love interests, this will not be for you. Triggers for sex trafficking, adult content, and more. I personally find that I would have preferred only one interest or her to fade out to one. That is just me though and wanting to see more of a connection between the characters.

Like the others, this was just too over the top for me. I was irritated when things would be so tense, they would be too scared to move but have time for intimate scene. I know this is supposed to steamy, but I just did not connect with all of that. I also did not understand how killing the “main person” just ended things. She had armies of men storming all of the time. There are so many more layers than just one person leading the attacks.

This ends in a cliff hanger as well! You can make up the ending on your own really, but now I need to know!

Overall, this was a fun series and I am happy I gave it a go.

Damaged picks up right where book one leaves off. I am glad there is no build up and we jumped right back into the action. I did feel the first half of this one was a little repetitive from the first book. However; the second half was packed with different twists. So much was happening and there were some really sad parts.

Just like book one, this ends a huge cliff hanger. I am glad I have book three to jump into next.

Pretty Boy D by Rachel Jonas

Pretty Boy D by Rachel Jonas
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I enjoyed the beginning of the Kings of Cypress Pointe series and was excited for a book around Dane and Joss. They had an adorable friendship and I was excited to see more from them. Unlike the series, I do feel you can read this one as a standalone, but recommend reading the whole series for a better understanding of the characters.

I was expecting a little more out of this one. This takes place after everything that happened in the main series which I did like. However; I found it very slow at times with nothing happening to keep my attention. I found myself skimming some of the chapters just to move it forward.

The audiobook narrator is really good though and I enjoyed listening to this over trying to physically read it.

I enjoyed jumping back into these characters even though this one fell a little short for me.

The Way We Fall by Cassia Leo

The Way We Fall by Cassia Leo
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was a very quick read. I started it one night and finished it on audio the next day. Triggers for suicide, mental health, cheating, sexual abuse/perpetrator, mental health, fake pregnancy, abortion, and more.
This is told in two parts. Part one is really setting up everything that is happening and getting to know both Houston and Rory. We get back and forth chapters from their perspectives from both the now and then. I wanted a little more with their chemistry. The past included mostly fighting and grief. It makes sense as you read, but I still wanted to see the angst more between the two both before and after.

I did not like the storyline involving the wife of Houston. She was manipulating him on many levels including around what happened with his sister.

I also did not love the reveal of the letter and all it laid out around Hallie. I just did not like that twist.

I did like how everything wrapped up on this one though and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
