The Wedding Date Universe

 Dear Readers,  It's been a while! 'Twas a rough few weeks, but I'm back! As I figured out what series to review next, I realized it may be feasible to group the reviews by genre. That makes sense, right? I started with Romance, so one more won't hurt. I'm excited though because I get to review  The   Wedding Date  by Jasmine Guillory, and my favorite books that are subsequently in the same universe. I have never read multiple books, from the same author, that made me smile from cover to cover. Most authors lose that momentum after the first few books, especially in a series. These books are not the same. I was seriously rooting for each character, there was not one character in any of the pairings that I can say didn't deserve the other. Granted, I am only reviewing three of her books, but her stories and characters make me grab her books anytime I'm in heaven (You may see me refer to heaven frequently, please know that in my mind, Barnes & Noble is the...

BWWM Billionaire Dads Series

 Dear Readers,  Today I am going to discuss Nia Arthurs' BWWM Billionaire Dads Series , and if you are unfamiliar with what BWWM stands for, that's okay, so was I. It stands for Black Women White Men and typically, overt fixations on interracial couples make me weary, but these books make you love, love. Ironically, I am currently going through the toughest heartbreak of my life so if I, in good faith say these books are amazing, please trust me. Literally, I finished one the other night and cried for an hour straight because Adam and Nova's story was eerily similar to what I thought I had with this person. I wanted to be bitter because of what was happening in my life and it just made me want love that much more. These books are that well written. Anyway, I digress. So, if you love a good romantic comedy and want to get into reading or branch into the genre, this is the way to go. I read a standalone within their universe, and it was so good that I had to go search them o...

Welcome to KayDee Reads

 Dear readers,  To love literature is to love life, and boy do I love life. I have never been a people person, I am slightly awkward and it is overwhelming. I never needed people when I had the characters of my favorite novels to keep me company. Imagine wanting to be rambunctious like Huckleberry Finn, mischievous like Junie B. Jones, adventurous like Harry, Hermoine, and Ron, or even curious like Alice. Literature has always been there to turn my day around when I'm anxious, scared, happy, overwhelmed, or sad. However, there were not many books that contained characters within their contents that represented who I was as a reader. As a child, you do not feel it nor do you care to, but as I got older, it made me become detached from one of my favorite activities. As a Black woman, my identity is all-encompassing. I cannot be anything other than that, and as a result, it started to interfere with how I approached novels. There has always been Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, and e...
