This book is a sleeper agent! It quietly sat in my kindle, slowly creeping up on me in my TBR and when I picked it up, it ruthlessly held me hostage for the rest of the day. Hogle has penned a quick paced, uproariously funny romantic comedy pitting fiances against each other in a game of chicken. Told solely in Naomi’s perspective, readers are treated to pranks and schemes all designed to frustrate the other into pulling the plug on […]

The relationships Annie navigates are enjoyable and not limited simply to her romance with Jon. […]

Dow as woven a particularly grim version of the future. In this post-invasion Earth, the author borrows a bit of that star-crossed love trope with her character Ellie (Janelle) and Morris. The most striking part of this debut novel has to be the intricate world-building that has gone into the Ilori invaders and the state of humanity both before and after their arrival. It is a grim picture that, horrifyingly, resonates with today’s current events. One thing that Dow does […]
