 The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas    

The Spanish Love Deception: A Novel - Kindle edition by Armas, Elena. Contemporary Romance Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.Romance, fiction


Just like Helen Hoang said, “Everything you could want in a romance is right here,” is the understatement of the year. This book was incredible in pretty much every way! 


From the start of this book, I got a lot of The Hating Games by Sally Thorne vibes, from the enemies to lovers focused in a workplace environment. I also thought that the pace of the book was well executed, because I never once felt the book was going too fast or moving too slow when it came to the characters and their interactions. Even the first scene was building tension, and showed the reader a lot about the characters and their relationships. I also really loved the whole background and family of Catalina, because as a person of descent from Portugal and as I am taking Spanish in school, I loved getting to understand the words spoken and culture added revolving around Spain.  :)


Anyways onto the main aspect of this story, Catalina Martín and Aaron Blackford. Díos mío, these two were made for each other. The tension between them was building since the start of the book, and I was waiting for it to burst. And it made me so giddy the whole time while reading this book because Aaron wouldn't say why he wanted to go to Lina’s sister's wedding in Spain, but by the end we all knew why. They are just so cute and Aaron was so protective and caring when it came to loving Lina. When I got to the epilogue, I was honestly expecting them to be engaged–but it was only a year later from the end of the book so it would have been kind of fast for some people. Though Lina's whole family was coming to New York to visit Aaron and Lina, I kind of had this feeling that Aaron would propose after the epilogue!! Ahh they are so in love and happy together. 


I definitely am giving this book a five star rating! If you read anything similar to The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren, The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, or People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry, then you will love this slow burn enemies to lovers book! Also quick shoutout to Isabel who was the best crazy unfiltered sister. ¡Adiós por ahora mis amigos!

Long Live The Pumpkin Queen by Shea Ernshaw

Long Live The Pumpkin Queen by Shea Ernshaw  YA, fiction I had seen this book before somewhere, but I was very excited when I unwrapped this gift for Christmas! If I haven’t mentioned before, The Nightmare Before Christmas created by Tim Burton, is probably one of my favorite movies of all time, so you can assume that I was interested to see the epilogue from Sally’s perspective. This book was definitely lower than my reading level with its size fourteen font and respective main ideas, but it still pulled me in like the original story line. the details of Halloween Town and the dark, twisted woods built around these main characters were beautifully but darkly described. When it came to romance, it was absolutely adorable! Jack and Sally Skellington are just the cutest and I am glad that even just their little bit of romance gets to exist in this creepy world of Tim Burton and Shea Ernshaw. Sally has to face many difficulties throughout story entirely by herself, while trying to stay tr

Happy Place by Emily Henry

  Happy Place by Emily Henry   Romance I may have only read seven books this year so far, but I can confidently say that I am glad that Happy Place was one of those seven. Not only was this one of my favorite books I have read in a while, but it was also the most perfect refreshing book of the summer.  Emily Henry uses a common thread throughout her stories. Those threads are connected by time, time jumps, memories, etc. This story takes place between the now and the past of the protagonist, Harriet’s, summers in Knott’s Harbor, Maine. She and her five other friends travel back to Maine for a long-awaited reunion, but not all is right. Harriet, aka Harry, has recently split up with her ex-fiance, Wynn, and they haven’t told their friends yet. This story is heart-wrenching and heartwarming as it navigates the truth about change through growth, and how some secrets are better left unsaid. And the summer vibes are all there. From those sea breeze winds to small-town shopping routes, this
