Reviews

Reviews is perhaps not the right word to use, since I'm more of a rambler of reactions. So, on this blog you can find my reactions to books (and films and TV-shows) in both Swedish and English.

Rating is basically like this:

1 - I will probably never use this, since I never finish books I don't like and can therefore hardly review them. If I don't feel really strongly about them.

2 - Another rating I rarely use, but it's possible it will turn up here. This is for books I feel very little about - they're okay, but nothing for me.

3 - This is a comfortable rating that I use for books I like, but don't love.

4 - This very much used one is for books I loved.

5 - This darling five is for books that holds my heart in their hands, able to crush it or elevate it in an instant.

Steamy, sexy, romantic and sweet by Rachel Reid

Author: Rachel Reid Title:  Heated Rivalry Publisher: Carina Press Published: 2019 Genre: Contemporary/sports romance Links:  Amazon  /  Storytel  /  Goodreads Would you look at that, yet another book that has been read because I spend too much time on social media. This time @escape_in_a_book is the felon who made this book present in my tbr. She told us that this is one of the best M/M-romances she's ever read and the  best sports romance. I tend to agree. Not being majorly interested in sports, I don't usually go for it in romance, either. But it happens. This time, I'm glad it did. Heated Rivalry starts out with a hockey game from Shane's POV. It leads to defeat and then a sexual encounter with his biggest rival - Ilya Rozanov. Apparently, this is a thing they do and have done for seven years. Then we're taken back to their first encounter and it all goes down(hill) from there. This book was a pure delight. Being kind of sick of dram...

Epic love story, Jane Austen-style by Huda Fahmy

Author: Huda Fahmy Title:  That Can be Arranged Publisher: Andrews McMeel Publishing Published: 2020 Genre: Graphic novel Links:  Adlibris  /  Bokus  /  Goodreads Huda Fahmy brings it once again. Having loved her Instagram-feed and previous book [book:Yes, I'm Hot in This: The Hilarious Truth about Life in a Hijab|40538900], of course I had to read this one as soon as it arrived at work. Judge me all you want, but I read this instead of working (although I do work as a librarian, so it could count as work), as I did with the other one. And this was good. I loved little Huda and her parents. I also liked how she described her thoughts about marriage, going from longing for it, to being kind of reluctant, to believing getting married was what defined her, to realizing a man and marriage doesn't make her a better or more worthy person. I loved her discovery of Jane Austen-novels and how she could see herself, her family and her situation through thes...

Sikta Högt av Heléne Holmström

Författare: Heléne Holmström Titel: Sikta Högt Förlag: Lovereads Genre: Romance Länkar:  Bokus  |  Adlibris  |  Goodreads Sikta högt är den fristående uppföljaren till Falla Fritt , en av mina storfavoriter inte bara förra året, utan överhuvudtaget. Det är alltid nervöst att ge sig in i samma värld, med glimtar av samma karaktärer, när det kommer en ny berättelse. Jag kan ju gärna överhajpa… Men här var det inget att vara nervös över. Holmström fångar in mig direkt med undran över vad en maffiaboss skulle ha gjort. Victoria är en karaktär som jag känner mycket för - hon är fyrtio, nyligen skild och har ett riktigt svin till exmake som verkar leva för att göra livet svårt för henne. Hon har gett upp mycket för honom och har inte ens ett arbete att komma tillbaka till. Dock ger hon inte upp. Drömmen om ett eget barn, ett stabilt liv och det faktum att hon är en stark, smart och självständig kvinna, får henne att jobba hårt och visa framfötterna. Erik är ocks...
