Book Review: Spinning Tales by Brey Willows
I want to preface this review saying that this type of story is not my normal preference. I liked the cover, title, and blurb enough to try something out of my reading comfort zone.

The author used the word ‘Maudlin’ a few times within this book and I’d have to say that is the key descriptor. Don’t get me wrong, this was a great book. I loved it. But wow it was frustrating to read at times. Both main characters were quite self deprecating and full of self doubt. […]
This was a nice, sports-themed, romance. I thought that the idea of a Vegas arena and the team name ‘The Rollers’ was creative. I wish we were this close to having a female NFL kicker.
I really don’t like giving negative reviews, but it was honestly difficult for me to get through this book. Ava, a famous violinist, meets Bianca on a bench. After a time gap they reunite and find they will be spending a lot of time together traveling. Conflicts and misunderstandings ensue.
I had never heard of Andrea Gibson before reading this book of poetry. I definitely know her now. In fact, very intimately as a result of her vulnerability and frank openness.
‘Ask Me Again’ is a deeply moving continuation of ‘Ask, Tell.’ It felt as if I was a spectator (or fly on the wall) throughout this entire story. And it was uncomfortable. I imagine Noyes did PTSD justice. It was horrifying to watch Sabine struggle with the changes, actions, and feelings she could not prevent. […]
I’m glad this one was recommended to me. Both the past and current stories interwoven throughout the story were gratifyingly mysterious.
No idea what happened This must have been way above me. All these great reviews and I’ve finished it wondering what the heck I just read.
Wow, this book was good. Aside from a very few editing issues, this was practically perfect for me.
This was another one I didn’t leave a review for the first time I read it. Huh. Look. This book was fire. If you haven’t read it, then get to it.
