I've decided to wait another week before I try anything just to make sure it's healed then tackle loosening up the glue.

That really is a lot if books and if I know you, totally doable cause you are a reading machine 😉

I think my next book from my jar will be Ashenden by Elizabeth Wilhide"


Glad you loved it ☺️

She definitely knows how to write a great story.

Sounds like a better approach. Like you said, the stores tend to have more books in stock than online.

I think they are becoming greedy and not caring about their service.

I think you'll enjoy Maybe Someday, so definitely give it a go.

Slammed was really overrated, in my opinion. I kept seeing 5 star reviews and everyone going nuts over how amazing it was but I just didn't feel it. Hopeless is definitely my fav, followed by Ugly Love, Confess and Maybe Someday.

That's ridiculous how it wasn't shipped out earlier especially considering it's a pre-order. Just like ebooks, hardcopies should be arriving on the day of release, otherwise you could have just gone to the store on release day and pick one up. Sounds like Amazon are getting slack.

Oh that sound have been amazing to attend...really sounds like a super fun day and you got some goodies also. Maybe next year, let's hope. Where was it held in Sydney?

I find that I either really love her books or find them falling short with some.

I too started reading CoHo later than most and read Hopeless first which was definitely a big mistake only cause I loved that book so much that when I tried reading her first book, Slammed, I didn't like it so never continued on with the series. I'd say try to start from her earlier works on cause there was such a difference in writing between Slammed and Hopeless.
