I want to thank Karina Halle and Social Butterfly PR for the advance copy of Nothing Personal. I was super excited to end 2018 with the final release I was anticipating being from Karina Halle. I have been such a huge fan of Karina Halle. She was the first author I ever covered in an author spotlight and I have always been biased when it comes to her as we share the same hometown. As this is my final review of 2018, I want to touch on what this means to me. I picked blogging back up this year and took a risk focusing exclusively on NA books. I am so…

Are You New to NA… This is Where You Should Start
I was lucky when I started to read New Adult a few years ago that there were many reviewers that steered me in the right direction, so I want to do that for you now. There are important things to consider when jumping into NA for the first time: Don’t go hardcore or extreme right away! This might put you off NA forever. NA deserves a gradual entry, one should start with novels that tow the line between NA and YA. My recommendation for someone’s very first NA book is… Slammed tells the story of an eighteen-year-old girl who moves to a new city with her mother, after the death…

Author Spotlight on Karina Halle
In author spotlight, I want to write dedicated posts to highlight an author that I believe deserves more attention both in and out of the NA literature fandom. It was a no-brainer for me to start out with Karina Halle (pronounced like Halle Berry, my stupid brain pronounced it differently for a long time). She is definitely one of the hardest working authors out there. Plus she’s a hometown girl for me (both of us were born in Vancouver, Canada (and she still lives close by)), which bleeds into the settings of so many of her books. Karina is a machine. She is my most read author, and here’s the…
