March Wrap Up

I have read the same amount of books this month as last but I feel like I have been in a little reading slump, although I could, more than likely, be overthinking it. The month just feels like it has passed too quickly and there has not been enough time to read.

Nevertheless, it has been a good month of books seeing that all three have been Five Star reads. I have thought about it and I simply can not choose a favourite book, but I can most definitely tell you that my favourite author this month has been Elena Armas. I cannot wait for The Long Game to be released in September!

What was your favourite book this month and who is your new book boyfriend/girlfriend? Mine, without a shadow of a doubt, is Aaron Blackford.

REVIEW: The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas

The Spanish Love Deception is an Erotic Contemporary Romance novel and debut by Elena Armas. It follows a predicament Catalina Martín has put herself in with a simple white lie caused by a burst of panic that has seemingly spiralled out of control. To save face, she is in desperate need of a ‘fake’ boyfriend to take as her date to her older sister’s wedding in Spain. With no other option and not enough time to find one but the one offered, she begrudgingly accepts to take her grumpy, smug, blue-eyed office enemy, Aaron Blackford. They only need to pretend to be in love for three days; after all, that should not be too difficult to manage.

REVIEW: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Film Adaptation: Pride and Prejudice (2005)

Pride and Prejudice is a Romance Novel by Jane Austen and the second of six complete novels the author published. This book is the embodiment of ‘never judge a book by its cover’ because both Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy judge each other on birth and first impressions, which, with a great deal of miscommunication and great verbal sparring, makes for an exciting read. Elizabeth is determined to dislike Mr. Darcy for as many reasons as she can find without actually seeking the truth from him, and Mr. Darcy is determined not to fall so entirely without hope for Elizabeth by sticking his two cents in where they do not belong and trying his hardest to be indifferent towards her. It is certainly up for debate as to who is more proud and who is more prejudiced.
