My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One of my favorite stories when I was younger was that of Hansel and Gretel. This is the retelling of that story, with a nicer version than the original. I enjoyed the concept Lois conveys of helping someone in need. A very quick read with a good message. If you like classic children’s tales with a slight twist, this is the book for you.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While romance books are not my typical genre, the cover to this book was just too cute. I had to know all about Amy and Noah. I could feel the heat radiating from the pages as their undeniable attraction was apparent. I was also in love with the development between Noah and Amelia. I flew through this book and cannot wait to dive into more of Belinda’s books. If you’re craving a slightly smutty story with great characters, then this is the book for you.

My Inner Critic By Christine Bernard- review by Jennifer Allen

This book climbed right into my head and pulled out every thought I have ever had.
Emily is such a relatable person and I felt like I was living right next to her. From her awkward social interactions to her loving friends, Emily is on a journey of self-love. I have never related to a character more. If you have ever felt weird or out of place at any point in your life then this is the book you need to read.
