Caffeinated Crystal's book reviews

I guess I am in my tab○○ era. Strip Me Down was hot. Caleb and Rafe were super hot. • brothers • size difference • edging • light voyeurism/exhibitionism  • bossy & bratty bottom • giving & caretaking top • dirty talk The strip bingo, sexy book club scenes were hilarious. Caleb was such a little terror. Phillip's plus one had me cackling. Rafe's need for Caleb hit. This book was a fun, sexy, and quick read! Arcane Falls, where no one cares if you have a zest for the 'cest.

Still on my Marie Reynard kick 💕 just finished up FIVE STAR REVIEW and the bonus chapters. UGH I LOVE THIS UNIVERSE!!!! • best friends to lovers • they are roommates • wolf shifter/human • sex worker • sex toy tester/video reviewer • astronomy nerds Y'all this story was so sweet. Aiden and Zayn meet as college dorm mates freshman year. They are both into each other, but they are idiots. The pining, and the scenting? Perfection. The cameos from MateHub Legend? Amazing. The bonus chapters? So funny. This was a sweet novella and I could have happily kept reading. I would have loved to see Zayn's first trip to Aiden's pack! More scenes of Zayn's "testing" and reviewing tapings. Or more comments/scenes from the message boards. And who sent the package? This universe is SO fun and Reynard has a distinct voice that carries throughout each story. She is gonna have me going full paranormal next, I have already downloaded everything else she has available to read LOL. ...

WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME? Why did none of y'all pull me aside and say "Crystal, you dumb bitch, read MateHub: Legend. You will LOVE IT!" I feel like an idiot. I just finished MATEHUB: LEGEND and I LOVED THIS BOOK. I LOVED IT. *squeals in dolphin language* ✨️DICKHUNT FOREVER✨️ Please take this post as me pulling you aside and saying "_________, have you read MateHub Legend? No? You got to, right now. Seriously. Right now. The hype was real. I repeat, the hype was real." The idea behind this story is awesome. Supernatural/shifter world, they would need supernatural/shifter p○rn too. Makes sense. • veteran star/newbie • shifter/human • transactional bonds & true bonds • message boards • trollops and strumpets • DICKHUNT • found family • paranormal plot points • knotting • idiots to mates • primal(ish) play • scents Richard and Hunter were perfection. I loved them. 5, but also ♾️, ⭐️ °•○●•°•●○°°○●○°°•○○•° Bookstagram ● book reader ● book reviewer ● exceeded the h...

Making Time released last month, and it had been on my tbr since. Hockey player × single dad? Sounds right up my alley. This is a first time author for me, and I didn't really know what to expect. Weston is a talented storyteller though. Jamie Sullivan was immediately likeable as a larger than life but secretly a softie-disaster and Tyler was immediately loveable with his amazing style and devotion to his kiddo Rowan. • hockey player/single dad • lacy lingerie  • sex worker (dancer) • found family • low(ish) spice This book was super sweet. The concept of Making Time was really highlighted with Jamie's busy hockey schedule and Tyler working multiple jobs and being a single dad. For anything to work, they had to make time. I reiterate, this book is hella sweet. Perfect if you're wanting something on the lower side of spice but high on the sweet every day romance. Plus, the kid Rowan was adorable with his singing and drawing. Legit cute af.

✨️throws glasses across the room✨️ like that food influencer when something tastes delicious... BECAUSE HOT AXE WAS DELICIOUS chomp chomp chomp Not only is May Archer a wizard at her craft, but she goes and has the audacity to write a best friends to lovers story. Say less y'all!!!! • best friend's to lovers • IDIOTS TO LOVERS • firefighters • chief/restaurant owner • pining & yearning & denial • found family goodness • small towns • learning to set boundaries  Ames is the main idiot in this story (said lovingly of course) and Robbie is the straight, not so straight best friend. These two are peas in a pod, besties where one name is followed by the other. There was low angst, big drama, confessions, pining, a waiting room scene, family dinners, and a shower scene that had my flabbers gasted. I wanna print and frame the shower scene, and hang it on my wall. These two were perfect for each other once they got their shit together. And while I was absolutely 100% here for t...
