Fly with Me by Andie Burke

Fly with Me by Andie Burke was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy, and I absolutely loved reading it. In it we meet Olive and Stella who cross paths on a flight when a passenger experiences a medical emergency.

Something Wild & Wonderful (Love & Other Disasters #2) by Anita Kelly

Something Wild & Wonderful by Anita Kelly was a special read and I loved it so much.  I read the first in the series, Love & Other Disasters, earlier in the year and fell completely in love with the author’s storytelling.

Dilla Time by Dan Charnas

Dilla Time by Dan Charnas chronicles the life and impact of J Dilla, James DeWitt Yancey, who even if you do not recognize his name, you have likely listened to music that has been influenced by his style as a producer.

Hook Shot by Kennedy Ryan

Hook Shot is another fantastic read from Kennedy Ryan with a couple that is fun to root for. The way she writes is so deep; it’s the current day love story AND each character’s personal growth that helps them be ready for love.

The Weight of Blood by Tiffany D. Jackson

It’s no secret that I love Tiffany D. Jackson and have been eagerly waiting for her latest book, The Weight of Blood, to release.  It did not disappoint! It has her classic YA horror style and, of course, a systemic issue in the spotlight.

Honey & Spice by Bolu Babalola

Honey & Spice by Bolu Babalola is a witty and heartwarming romance novel that was absolutely FUN to read.

Last Summer on State Street by Toya Wolfe

Last Summer on State Street by Toya Wolfe was a powerful coming-of-age debut that I keep thinking about. It’s set in the southside of Chicago during the late nineties, in the Robert Taylor Homes.
