The Black Witch (The Black Witch Chronicles #1) by Laurie Forest

Summary: "A new Black Witch will rise…her powers vast beyond imagining.

Elloren Gardner is the granddaughter of the last prophesied Black Witch, Carnissa Gardner, who drove back the enemy forces and saved the Gardnerian people during the Realm War. But while she is the absolute spitting image of her famous grandmother, Elloren is utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above all else. As evil looms on the horizon and the pressure to live up to her heritage builds, everything Elloren thought she knew will be challenged and torn away. Her best hope of survival may be among the most unlikely band of rebels…if only she can find the courage to trust those she’s been taught to fear."

WELL, that was surprisingly good!

The Dating Drama by Sara Martin

Summary: "Chloe Gibson's dating the man of her dreams-a talented and gorgeous K-drama star. But there's just one catch: they have to keep their relationship secret. This isn't the ideal romance Chloe used to fantasise about.

Fortunately, there's a glimmer of hope on the horizon. The couple have an agreement that after one year of dating in secret, they'll front up to the South Korean media and go public with their relationship.

But the year won't be smooth sailing.

When a mysterious package shows up, Chloe's life is thrust into chaos. Soon she's being plagued by creepy anonymous messages and the unsettling feeling she's being followed.

The question is no longer whether the relationship will survive, it's will Chloe survive?"

Was it terrible? Kinda. Did I enjoy it? Kinda.

A Curse for True Love (Once Upon a Broken Heart #3) by Stephanie Garber

Summary: "Two villains, one girl, and a deadly battle for happily ever after."

JACKS!

I wanted a bit more. The end of the second book was so wonderfully painful and bittersweet, and thus, my expectations were insanely high for this one.

The Wrong Mr. Right by Stephanie Archer

Summary: "Shy, quiet Hannah is surrounded by handsome, sensitive, swoon-worthy men...who are fictional. As her thirtieth birthday looms, she takes stock of her life: her small-town bookstore isn't making ends meet and she's never been in love. Something needs to change."

Bookworms + surfers = chef's kiss

The Practice Kiss by Sara Martin

Summary: "When Chloe Gibson accepts an English teaching job in Korea, the last thing she expects is to end up broke and alone, wandering the streets of Seoul with nowhere to go. But just as she’s ready to give up and go home, a twist of fate lands her a role in a new K-drama."

Are these books well-written? Not really. 

But are they easy to read and comforting when I'm overwhelmed? Yes.

Beard Science (Winston Brothers #3) by Penny Reid

Summary: "Make a deal with the devil and you might get what you want, but will it be what you need?

Jennifer Sylvester wants one thing, and that one thing is NOT to be Tennessee’s reigning Banana Cake Queen. Ever the perpetual good girl and obedient daughter, Jennifer is buckling under the weight of her social media celebrity, her mother’s ambitions, and her father’s puritanical mandates. Jennifer is officially desperate.

And desperate times call for Cletus Winston. Cletus Winston is a puzzle wrapped in a mystery covered in conundrum sauce, and now he’s in a pickle. Despite being convinced of his own omniscience, extortion by the exalted Banana Cake Queen of Green Valley has taken him completely by surprise. So... what’s a maniacal mastermind to do?"

CLETUS. How did I ever live without Cletus in my life?
