•Currently Reading•

I have decided to put a pause on The Boy of Chaotic Making and The Time Trials. Just too much time has passed since I have gotten into them and I want to get ahead of my ARCs as much as possible.

I also mentioned last week that I was planning on starting The Hotel Dancer. Well Unfortunately I have decided to drop it. The sexual content, violence and language were all just a bit too heavy for me and this blog. While I did not notice any full on sex scenes, there were plenty of it going on off page, plus sexual harassment was going on, and it was just not an easy or pleasant read for me.

That being said, I have started reading Cutie Pies by the Slice by Kimberly Nixon and A Perfect Mother by Miranda Smith.

Cutie Pies by the Slice is set to publish on October 6, 2026 with Roots and Wings Press. I am currently 10% of the way through. The story has been interesting for sure and is quite fast paced. I am curious to see how the prohibition laws contribute to the criminal circles that are in the story.

A Perfect Mother is set to publish on September 10, 2026 with Bookouture. I am also 10% through this suspenseful story and am enjoying it so far. The fact the main character is a well known influencer and writer makes the premise of her losing her child all the more intriguing.

About Me

Hello! I am Ashley and I simply love to read, and hope you do to!
I am currently 29 years old and living in the state of Texas, USA.

My favorite genres to read and review include romance, fantasy, mystery, and many subgenres of those as long as it is clean. I mainly get my books from my Kindle Unlimited membership, but I also found myself checking out library books on Libby as well.

As you can see, I do not solely post book reviews, I also love posting daily prompt writing, as well as stuff that is going on in my life currently. That being said, my passion is reading and reviewing books to my heart’s content, so hopefully that is something you are also interested in.

I do have a Goodreads where you can follow if you desire (no pressure!) I also have a StoryGraph, of which you can follow me here.
