Britney Spears’ Courageous Journey in ‘The Woman In Me’

The Woman In Me by Britney Spears

I’ve listened to Britney’s music ever since I can remember. I’ve always loved her music and wished I could be as sweet as her. I remember the Free Britney movement, and I thought the conservatorship was so wrong on all levels. When Britney released this book, I knew I wanted to read it; it just took me a little while to get to it.

I found it hard to rate this book, because how do you put a star rating on someone’s trauma?

Sinners Retreat Review: A Hilarious Serial Killer Romance

Posted on by Letty Reads

Sinners Retreat by Lauren Biel

I have read a few of Lauren Biel’s books; the first one I ever read was Captured, which is very dark! I still can’t look at mayo the same. Today, I have finished the first book in Lauren’s Slaycation series, Sinners Retreat.
Is it dark?
Well, they are serial killers; they are at a resort for a serial killer annual event where they get to play bowling using people’s heads, but other than that aspect, no, it’s not dark. It had me laughing out loud many times. It is a dark rom-com, and spoiler alert, I loved it!
