Welcome to Litsy!

I gave this a try, but I really dislike the main character. David arrives for his first year at Harvard and becomes obsessed with another student. He enrolls in a class he doesn‘t care about in order to follow her, then starts a relationship with her roommate to hopefully see her in her room.

I don‘t want him to win her over, and I don‘t want to watch him stalk her anymore, so I‘m out.

The writing is good, the topic just isn‘t for me.

Kinda, a type of shoe, but the first thing that came to mind

A relaxing Wednesday evening!

Ali kills it again!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

So spicy. I love AH

⭐️⭐️⭐️ I want to preface by saying this: I‘m so damned tired of romance novels that are nearly 500 pages. Get. To. The. Freaking. Point. But, I digress. While I wasn‘t super keen on certain aspects, which are laid out in the author‘s note, I generally liked the setting and characters. It was a decent vacation read.

There is something seductive about life on a campus, it feels like the world entire, but it isn‘t. Here Richard chances on a group of classics students, a clique that sequesters itself away from the rest of Hampton College. This is a delicious book, I had no sympathy for the protagonists at all, I had no problem in enjoying it all the same. The group plays with Richard, but they love him all the same. This could be my favourite book.

Hazelwood does it again. Steamy and fun with compelling characters going through it. Not for the faint of heart, especially if power dynamics aren‘t your thing. Not really mine but the high level aquatics competition setting was a big hit for me.

This was something! While there were still some classic Hazelwood elements (tall, dark male… tiny female… both smart) this went more into them being exceptional athletes with a side of kink exploration. The issues with the best friend/ex seemed to flow realistically and I liked the conclusion. The epilogue read a little weirdly, but that‘s fine. Did get my final March #wickedwords -Pen!
