As you all know I’m staying away from anything that might get me over excited and yes, unfortunately that extends to *uhum* the bedroom. Kidding, it’s not that dire yet! Its a little anxiety thing that I’m getting a handle on, so someday soon I’ll be flipping the pages of those twisted thrillers I l...
Read by Vincenza: Really interesting to see the relationship develop. Simply written, easy read. Also read by Sarah: Dramatic ending. Didn't enjoy it (don't like romance novels).

I developed such a deep empathy for both of them, though I ...
Looking back on this novel I'm beginning to wonder why Dexter and Emma actually like each other.... It baffles me, but maybe that's the beauty of this novel. One Day is an emotional rollercoaster to say the least, but in the end, it had me in tears. I think that everyone has a bit of Emma inside of ...
Opening Line: "I suppose the important thing is to make some sort of difference" So I’m going to try to write a somewhat sensible review here that doesn’t come across as all gushy fan-girl. I will say (hopefully only once) that I adored this book but you should know that I'm a bit of a sucker for...
