lots of communication issues between these two!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This is book 2 in the Love Goals series, and I think it would help to read book 1, Playing for Keeps, before this one. Not strictly necessary, but more a personal recommendation .

I liked book 1, but I liked this one more!

I'm perhaps being picky, and for that I'm sorry but the book feelings are strong with this one!

So, here's the thing. I did like this more than book 1. I found the romance lacking in book one, was here, to some extent. The fact that Jonas and Adam choose to hide their relationship, made it difficult but that was their choice. The emotional connection is deeper, but Lord, is there a lot these guys didn't talk about! I get why for some things, but Adam's news?? He should not have kept that from Jonas.

I loved the new guys, not just Jonas. Tito and Noah are going to be a force to be watched, but not together. I have a feeling that Tito is putting on a front, and Noah is deeper than he lets on. Edi, too although he's not new, but he's fighting an internal battle to please his dad and his team. Not sure who is winning right now though!

I'm looking forward to Noah's story, he is next, but his significant other?? Not sure who that is yet!

Should appeal to the same — dare I say it? — demo that “Bad Moms” did, even though it’s not nearly as wild a comedy. “A Bad Moms Christmas” fills a niche, but as this series itself might say, moms deserve better.
Critic- Owen Gleiberman
Original Score: 6 out of 10

It’s just that this feels like two films too much in a film series that should’ve ended in 2007. But, it’s one of those things that always makes me wonder. It’s not that I hate the movie, it’s just that there’s no oomph to it.

I like that they keep adding new things (0 more)
Every time I see an advertisement for this it shows movies and tv shows that are no longer on Netflix or have never been on it at all (2 more)
Some series or movies only have first movies or seconds not all same with tv shows they may have the last few seasons but miss the first few

Another Great Book in The Lost Clan series. I absolutely loved this book, it is well written, great plot and characters. I like the conflict between the fairies and the hunters. Catori doesn't know who to trust and needs to follow her instincts. I was not expecting the romance at all. An overall great read. I received an ARC copy for a honest, voluntary review.

I'm just not feeling this series. Too many unnecessary characters brought in, too much jumping around from location to location, perspective to perspective. Just as I feel like I'm getting into it and the story is getting good, it's all change again. I would've much preferred to focus on the main story, with fewer distracting side stories that don't really go anywhere or need telling.

This was a good book. I was hesitant to read it because of some of the reviews that stated it was pointless etc. I think that it added a lot to the series. It is very interesting to learn about Butch and see the growth of some of the characters.

It was not one of my favorite books but it still kept me entertained and enthralled.

I really enjoyed this second book in the Crazy Rich Asians series. Rachel and Nick are about to get married when she gets crazy news from her now-approving future mother-in-law: her father is not only alive but is waiting to meet her. There are many ups and downs, new characters’ stories, and lots of glimpses into the life of these crazy rich people!

2nd outing in Tamriel
This was my second Elder Scrolls game. The graphics have been slammed over the years but they're really not that bad. Yes it doesn't have the same look as Morrowind or Skyrim but it doesn't take away from the gameplay. The quests are enjoyable but can be challenging, especially some of the oblivion gates. It fits well into the series.

I was a little hesitant in reading this at first, after loving the hulu series, but I was very satisfied that it lived up and maybe even surpassed the hype a little. The differences between the two things were noticeable but not ones you would be upset about. I loved the way the main character made you feel what she was feeling, outrage, sadness, relief.
