People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry - I tried not to get too excited going into this book, as hyped up books always seem to disappoint me. But this one absolutely did not. It made me smile and my heart ache all at the same time. Perfect for the last rays of summer-sunshine at the beginning of the month! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker - This was a very heavy read and I had to put it away and come back to it a couple of times. I just didn’t find the writing to be engaging enough to finish it quickly, even though it was stunning. I liked the pov of Achilles! ⭐️⭐️

The Great Ex-Scape by Jo Watson - A cute, light-hearted romance but by no means on the same level as Love to Hate You by the same author. ⭐️⭐️

It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey - Really cute and steamy, but I wasn’t the biggest fan of Brendan. His character was too bossy and a little shallow at times. ⭐⭐️⭐️

Heimat by Nora Krug - This is such an important book about heritage, culture and identity. Wonderful read. Definitely recommend!  ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie - My first time ever reading this! It was cute and reminded me of my childhood crush. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

New Horizons by Lily Lucas - The fourth book in the “Green Valley Love” series and I’ve been waiting to get to Cole’s book. However, the female heroine in the book just wasn’t it for me. Cole deserved better :( ⭐⭐️

The Legacy - Elle Kennedy. I was deeply disappointed by the final book in the Off-Campus series. Apart from Dean and Allie’s novella, I felt like all the stories were extremely out of character for the couples. The same miscommunication dispute also bothered me. I think the series would’ve been better if Elle had ended with The Score. ⭐⭐️

Diver’s Heart by K.A. Knight - I went into this book thinking it was comparable to Ugly Love (judging plainly from the cover) but I couldn’t finish this. It was badly written imo and I just have to admit that I do not like reverse harem. Not my book! (DNF)

To Love Jason Thorn by Ella Maise - Oh my god, this book blew me away. It was very much cliché and rom-com-typey but it had all the spice and I loved the characters chemistry. A little cheesy at points and I was missing a little more solving of the characters problems at the end. ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️

Love to Hate You by Jo Watson - such a fun, but also emotional read! I really enjoyed the book.

The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang - probably one of the best New Adult romances I’ve read! So much depth, so steamy and so funny!!!

Off-Campus Series by Elle Kennedy - also very sexy, but so good! I’ve read the first two books, curious to see what the other books are about!

On Dublin Street Series by Samantha Young - this was my first NA series and I devoured it! I especially loved Olive + Nate’s story, but all of the parts are amazing. 

Again Series by Mona Kasten - I loved these so much! A bit more “innocent” but especially the first two books were my favourites.

Me with Jo Watson!

Your guilty pleasure? 

Mmmm, tricky. I'm not sure we should feel guilty about anything we like, but I did once tell people that I LOVE watching Dr. Phil, I watch every single episode and they replied to me, "Oh, is that your guilty pleasure?" I also love watching Dr. Pimple Popper . . . soooo satisfying!  

Your childhood crush? 

Right, shall I embarrass myself here and say I thought McGyver was quite hot when I was young. Even worse, I actually thought his hairstyle was cool.  

Best date – fictional or real? 

Definitely Ben and Sera's first date in LOVE TO HATE YOU. It was perfect in all its imperfection, but I won't give it away. But I loved writing it.  

The most attractive quality or feature in a hero? 

Humor. I am such a total sucker for humor! I would take humor over anything else, including looks! Making me laughing is way better than a six pack - any day of the week.  

The hottest accent? 

I don't find the French accent sexy, at all. There, I said it. I don't swoon for French accents. I'm not sure I find any particular accent very sexy, I can tell you though that my Siri speaks in an Australian accent, which for some reason, I find rather soothing. Maybe a man with a Russian accent, something Eastern European and mysterious sounding though?  

Bad boys or clean-cut heroes? 

Something in between! I certainly find a clean-cut guy a bit too boring for my tastes, but I also don't like cocky, arrogant Alpha's. Those are a massive turn off for me. Honestly, if I had to meet some of the heroes I've read in books in real life, I'd probably land up punching them! I like a person who is real. Just themselves, nothing else.  

Most romantic gesture? 

I keep saying this is all my interviews, and I know it's hard to believe, but I am not a very romantic person in real life. Neither is my husband. We're useless when it comes to romance and remembering things like our anniversary. We did elope to Las Vegas and get married – it was a Star Trek themed wedding with a man dressed up as Spock presiding over it (Yes, we're lame like that!) I guess that was rather romantic. It was certainly funny, and you know how I like funny! We laughed the entire way through our vows.
