General info

Meet Nell, a successful lawyer and a woman who has planned her life to the her dying day. A successful law career, the perfect man and 2.5 kids, that's what she wants.
Meet Vincent, a politician and a dominant.
When these two make a deal and decide to enter into a six month long BDSM relationship, Nell's plan takes a detour. And things do not go as she has planned.

What I liked 

I have to say, there wasn't much I didn't like about this book. It is a lovely piece of literature and the writing style is great. The plot is interesting and keeps the reader hooked until the end. I'm a sucker for some erotica and romance and this book definitely has both of them in it.
Also, both Nell and Vincent are great and interesting characters and I really truly love their relationship.

Things I did not like

Like I said, I love this book and there isn't a lot of bad things to say about it. The only thing for me is that I think it could have gone on for a little bit longer. It would have been great to be able to read how their relationship grows after the books ending.

Concluding words

All in all, this book is just lovely and I recommend it from the bottom of my heart. I'm not an expert on BDSM or any relationships but I enjoyed Vincent and Nell's relationship and would have loved to read more about them.

Harshville by Olivia Wildenstein

I loved this story. Even though the characters were mainly teenagers there was still a certain maturity to the book and the problems were very grown-up ones. I also liked how the book were handling people who were different. For example, Nevada was sick and because of that looked different. It made the book more interesting and I certainly enjoyed this book because of it. It made the book more meaningful I think. 
Loved this book from page one.

Saving Hanna by A.L Long

A wonderful story. I really enjoyed this book and it was very quick to read. I liked the characters and I especially liked Hanna a lot for some reason. The plot was interesting as well. I would have liked a little bit more filling in the book, though. It was a bit weird that not all of the secrets came to light but I still liked it a lot. The ending was both sad and happy at the same time.
All in all, a lovely, quick read.

Old enough by Charmaine Pauls

I have never been a big fan of romances between an older woman and a younger man. However, this book was brilliant. The characters were amazing and skilfully created. Brian was a character who acted in such a way I always forgot his age and Jane as well. She acted a lot more younger than what she then turned out to be. This book really made my opinions rise to the surface and I can't wait to read the rest of their story. I really hope they get a happy ending, they truly deserve it.

A Grave Friend by Jason Harris Edward

I have to say that this type of literature is completely new to me. I have never read an illustrated short story for adults.
On that note, I did enjoy reading it and the story itself was very touching. It told a story about the reality of life and of death and it was pleasant to follow and read through. The illustrations were great and it was easy to read and quite fun too even though the story was a bit sad in a way.
I recommend you read this book because it's quick but it also is quite an interesting story.

My monster by Einat Segal

At first this book didn’t seem to be that good. Sophie was rather odd for a main character and I just didn’t see the point of the book. But in the middle where all the secrets started to come out, the story took a turn for the better and I really started to enjoy the book. 
The plot itself is interesting but still I did not get the hang of it and there is a lot of unanswered questions that even now has not been answered so the whole book is a really big cliffhanger.
Additionally, I really liked the two male characters that played strong parts in the story as well. 
The only thing I didn’t like was the ending and I just didn’t like it, because now I have to go on to the next book to find out what happens next.
All in all, this book is good and worth reading but it has a major cliffhanger in the end.

The Rise and Fall of Becky Sharp

First off, I haven’t read the original Vanity Fair so I can’t compare these two books. 
When it comes to this book, I can honestly say I liked the book. I both admire and hate Becky Sharp. 
The story itself kind of pulls you in and goes up and down and up and down until the end. The plot is interesting and I feel all kinds of emotions and I absolutely love that Amelia got a happy ending and that George Wiley got what he deserved. 
All in all it was a good book that made me feel a thousand emotions.
