💫 How Reily Garrett’s Stories Found Me
She’s one of the first authors for which I’ve read and ARC. I barely knew how to write a blog post and a cohesive review. But the love I had for her stories, seeing how amazing of a writer she is, not to mention that, years later, she remembered a small blogger who posted a review or two on her books, these are just some of the arguments that won my appreciation for her and her work. Almost all the books I’ve read from her, I’ve rated 5 stars. One was a 4.5 stars 🙂 Feel free to check some of the reviews I have on my blog for Digital Velocity, Bending Fate or Tiago (sorry for the lack of images in this one).
There are a lot of series I need to complete from her backlist. I’m seriously thinking on a Reily Garrett Marathon. Who’s in ???
