My favorites this December:

 

• The Trouble With Love by Lauren Layne and One Night of Trouble by Elle Kennedy are my favorites for this month. Technically, they won’t be released until the first quarter of 2015 but I was so glad to have received eARCs and gosh, these two were fantastic reads.
• Book boyfriend of the month: A.J. Walsh from One Night of Trouble by Elle Kennedy! This guy broke my heart and mended it several times over. And darn, he’s sexy! lol 🙂
• New author find: Maggie Stiefvater! I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to read her. I’m now reading The Dream Thieves so yay for more of her books.
