Thank you Netgalley and Dreamscape Media for providing me with the audiobook in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own.

Jane is a bridesmaid for hire and she is about to start her biggest job yet: pretend to be Elle, the childhood best friend of Sarah, sister of Formula One driver Henry Norris. Elle cannot be at the wedding because she leaked private information about Henry to the press. Jane is determined to be the best bridesmaid Sarah could wish for when her attraction to Henry seems to get in the way. Especially when it is reciprocated... 👀

The audiobook had a really good narrator. Normally, I prefer two narrators whenever there is a dual POV but Rachel L. Jacobs did such a good job. I always knew when we were in either Jane's or Henry's point of view. (Which is also due to the writing!) Jacobs also did good American and British accents. This really added to the audiobook.

The story was a really nice romance. I flew through the audiobook. The setting around a wedding was really nice. I just like that vibe. The two love interests had a really nice tension which lead to even better smut 🌶🌶 The third act I saw coming but I felt like it was nicely done, not overly dramatic which I liked.

I felt that Henry's last name Norris was really on the nose, since there is a F1 driver, Lando Norris. I just don't know why the name stayed? Personally, I would have changed it. Also, there wasn't a lot of Formula One stuff besides some references. Which I thought was fine. I watch F1 with my family but I am not a huge fan. If you really want it to be surrounded by a circuit then this might not be the book for you.

And I found it a little funny/ridiculous that he proposed after a month. And they hadn't even had a talk about whether or not they wanted children. But oh well it's a romance.

I would recommend this audiobook to anyone who wants a nice spicy romance surrounded by a wedding and secrets with nice tension between the love interests.

Ik vond het niet echt een thriller

Fun book for children who love Taylor Swift. The book includes a biography of Taylor Swift, how she started out all the way to the Era's Tour and the Tortured Poets Department.

The book includes incredible illustrations by Marta Dorado. I loved them so much.

Really recommend this to huge Swifties and children who love Taylor Swift 

Dit boek legt de gruwelijke waarheid achter de bio industrie bloot. Content warning voor dierenmishandeling, bloed en specifiek beschrijvingen van het slachten van dieren.

Het audioboek is verder rommelig afgewerkt. De laatste twee hoofdstukken zijn herhalingen van de twee ervoor. De zinnen lopen soms niet goed en dat is dus gewoon niet goed geedit in de post productie. Heel jammer want het is toch wel een beetje storend.

Fake It Till You Bake It is a fun fake dating romance book which makes you want to eat a dozen cupcakes!

I really enjoyed it. It has a little spice as well which was nice! 🌶️ A nice romance novel for the summer time.

I have always love the Wawawiwa comics whenever I came across them on Instagram. I read When Sharks Attack with Kindness at the end of 2020 (in that year we all needed a hug in book form).

This book is an even better hug with all its heartwarming comics. I love the art style, it is sweet and simple. All the comics are short, so I flew through the book with laughs and smiles.

A Great Big Visual Hug is an ideal gift book for friends, family, colleagues, and other loved ones who need a little laugh and smile these days. Highly recommend to read it if you have the chance.

Thank you to Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing this ARC via NetGalley. This review is voluntary and contains my honest opinion about the book. 

Een heerlijke feelgood van Emily Henry. Ik wilde deze al een tijd lezen en ik vloog door het audioboek. Op dag 1 had ik al 20 hoofdstukken geluisterd! Ik vond het een erg leuk boek en zal in de toekomst sowieso Happy Place en Funny Story gaan lezen!

De vertaling was niet storend en erg fijn gedaan.

Thank you, Netgalley and the publisher for always approving my requests of amanda lovelace's work. I love her poetry no matter what some people might say.

This poetry collection felt so personal and has some many gems. A few favourites of mine include: Luna, in her self-acceptance era, she followed the moon back to herself and that's enough for her.

The art work is also stunning. I love the moths and the artwork instead the poetry collection.

If you like feminism, witchcraft and healing journeys this is the poetry collection for you
