Review: Barely Even Friends
Barely Even Friends by Mae BennettMy rating: 0 of 5 stars
This is the first romance book I’ve read where I don’t really understand how or why the couple is together. When they first kissed, it was so out of nowhere that I flipped back a few pages to see if I missed something. I didn’t. This was a common theme while I was reading the book. It didn’t flow very well from one scene to the next. It would have been better if we saw more of the main characters bonding with their late night conversations instead of just hearing that they happened. There’s a lot of explicit intimate scenes for such a small book, which I don’t mind usually. The scenes in this book were abrupt, like with the first kiss. It felt like the plot was getting lost after the spicy scenes started. Overall, I didn’t like this book.

Review: Drop, Cover, and Hold On
Drop, Cover, and Hold On by Jasmine GuilloryMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Have you ever found a restaurant or cafe that you love and then visit it over and over again? Yeah, me too. Would you keep going if you thought the owner hated you? I don't know if I would, but our main character does. She's forced to face the owner when they are both trapped in the cafe, with a box of her favorite pastries, after an earthquake strikes. As they eat the pastries and start talking, they discover that all is not as it seems.
This book is perfect for what it is—a short and adorable novella with a happy ending.
"Drop, Cover, & Hold On" was a great introduction to Jasmine Guillory, and I will definitely be looking for more of her works. The story is sweet, engaging, and filled with those little moments that make you smile. The characters are well-drawn, and the plot, while simple, is executed with charm and warmth. If you’re in the mood for a quick, heartwarming read, this novella is just the ticket.
