The Royals Next Door by Karina Halle Format: Audiobook | Narrators: Cassandra York | Length:  9 hours, 35 minutes ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4 stars) — ✨ — My Thoughts The Royals Next Door is a fun, spicy, and heartwarming contemporary romance that kept me hooked from start to finish! I loved Piper and Harrison—their romance begins with a charming meet-cute, builds slowly, and then turns spicy, all while maintaining the story’s humor and charm. A Scene That Had Me Laughing (and Feeling for Piper!) There’s a particular purse scene that had me laughing out loud while also feeling bad for Piper. It’s moments like these that make this book both entertaining and relatable. Thankfully, Piper gets her happy ending, which is always satisfying to see. Thoughtful Themes I also appreciated the thoughtful handling of mental health, and I loved how Piper balances caring for her mother with her own life and r...

🌸 Welcome to My Cozy Corner

-

Hi there! 👋 I’m Miranda

Welcome to my cozy corner of the internet, where I share books, small joys, and whatever inspires me.

Books & Dreams 📚

I’m a book nerd through and through. Lately, audiobooks are a lifesaver thanks to chemo brain, though my Kindle still has my heart. Mood reader here—romantasy, contemporary (good narrators only), paranormal romance, and sometimes Regency. Physical books? I squirrel them like treasures. Someday, I’ll have a dreamy home library where I can get lost for hours.

Simple Joys ☕🛋️

My ideal day includes coffee, blankets, country drives, and daydreaming about a quiet patch of land. I’m not a certified foodie, but I love to eat—probably too much, but life’s short!

Hair & Humor 💁‍♀️

Hair is weird. Losing half of mine to chemo taught me appreciation like never before. Lately, I’m teaching myself Dutch braids. Fun fact: you really don’t realize how much you love hair until it’s gone. Also…I’m silly and bad at jokes. Stick around—you might laugh or at least give me an awkward eye-roll. Either way, fun included.

Life, Cats & Creativity 🐱✨

My husband and I budget because apparently love includes spreadsheets. My two cats run the house—and I’m fine with it. Creative soul with short attention span: I bounce between hobbies like a caffeinated bunny. Genealogy is a longtime passion—I dip back into family history occasionally.

Why I’m Here 💕

I hope to use this space to give back—maybe inspire, maybe share, maybe make someone laugh. This is where I post life’s little inspirations, heartfelt moments, and random obsessions that bring me joy. Grab a blanket, a cup of coffee, and let’s get cozy together.

Quick Facts

  • Book nerd & mood reader 📚
  • Chemo survivor learning Dutch braids 💁‍♀️
  • Two cats = supreme overlords 🐱
  • Dreaming of a cozy home library 🛋️

Thanks for stopping by! Grab a cup of coffee, get cozy, and let’s share life’s little joys together. ✨

Twilight at 42: Cheesy? Maybe. Life-Changing? Absolutely.

Twilight at 20: Cheesy? Maybe. Life-Changing? Absolutely. I was 26 in 2008, stayed up until 4 a.m., and fell headfirst into Forks. Would I love it the same today? Probably not—and that’s okay. Back in 2008, I picked up Twilight and promptly forgot that alarms and jobs exist. As an adult reader at 26, I didn’t expect to be this feral for a book—but there I was, absolutely glued to the page. Today, my tastes have shifted, and I’d likely read it differently. But nothing changes the truth: this is the book that pulled me back into reading. My forever favorite. Edward: Dangerous, Devoted, Unforgettable I fell for the tension: the predator who chooses love, the man who could hurt you but won’t. That protective streak? Catnip. “I’m the world’s most dangerous predator, Bella.” — Edward That push–pull of I should stay away vs. I can’t made 4 a.m. a very reasonable bedtime. Bella: Pe...
