Buzzwordathon is coming up next week. Who knew I had so many numbers on my shelves and I haven't even looked at my Kindle yet! Here are some of my favorites while I decide on my TBR.
Rules: Read as many or as few as you want, there just needs to be a number on the cover. First, second, etc. also counts. See booksandlala on YouTube for more details.
31 Days of Reviews
I spent the first three weeks detailing 5-star reviews from 2017. I have run out (most of my reviews are 3-4 stars) so for the final 10 days of 2017, I'm delving into some of my favorite romance novels/series to date.
Title: Nine Minutes
Series: Out of Time trilogy
Genre: Contemporary - Motorcycle Club, Forbidden Romance, Dark Romance
Synopsis: On May 15, 1975, Ginny Lemon is abducted from a convenience store in Fort Lauderdale by a member of one of the most notorious and brutal motorcycle gangs in South Florida. From that moment on, her life is forever changed after she is given as a "present" to the gang leader. She gets a new name, a new identity and a new life in the midst of the gang’s base on the edge of the Florida Everglades—a frightening, rough and violent world much like the swamps themselves, where everyone has an alias and loyalty is tantamount to survival. And at the center of it all is the gang’s leader, Grizz: massive, ruggedly handsome, terrifying and somehow, when it comes to Ginny, tender. She becomes the one true love of his life. So begins a tale of emotional obsession and manipulation, of a young woman ripped from everything she knows and forced to lean on the one person who provides attention, affection and care: her captor. Precocious and intelligent, but still very much a teenager, Ginny struggles to adapt to her existence, initially fighting and then coming to terms with her captivity. Will she be rescued? Will she escape? Will she get out alive—or get out at all? Part psychological thriller, part coming-of-age novel, filled with mystery, romance and unexpected turns, Nine Minutes takes readers into the world of one motorcycle gang and inside the heart of a young girl, whose abduction brought about its fall.
Review: Oh my gosh, this book!!!! THIS BOOK!!! Buy it, read it...NOW, haha, okay only if you want to buy it, but I love it so much. It is a part of a trilogy but I'm not giving too many details beyond the first book. But this book, it broke my heart, major ugly cry alert. It could have easily been a standalone; it was stunningly well-written - no criticisms at all. This was her debut but you wouldn't know it. I loved this book and plan to read the accompanying spin-off.
Trigger warnings are ALL over this one - a lot happens. It is a motorcycle club and she does not sugarcoat their illegal activities and it can get very grisly, especially when Ginny is at risk. However, Grizz earned a very special place in my heart. I compare all motorcycle heroes against him and no one has surpassed him yet.
