Review: K-Pop Revolution by Stephen Lee

After finishing K-Pop Confidential I knew I wanted to read K-Pop Revolution soon. Luckily, it was already out and I found the audiobook on Scribd. Double win!

Review: From Little Tokyo With Love by Sarah Kuhn

I picked up From Little Tokyo, With Love on a whim. I wanted something light and fun and contemporary romance never lets me down. Rika and Hank are the couple, a waitress and an actor.

Book tour: Rise of Gaia by Kristin Ward

I read Rise of Gaia by Kristin Ward for a book tour hosted by The Write Reads. Dave provided a free copy of the book for an honest review and I couldn’t be more excited. You might remember I reviewed another of Kristin’s books last year and it didn’t click. But this one very much Read More
