Manic-ure: Jitterbug by Lovely Hello and Dingo by Harley Wylde


Jitterbug is pink with little black polka dots. It’s kind of like a pink ladybug on crack. I love the name. Not gonna lie, it’s the reason I bought this design of nail wraps. Still, it’s pretty and would last longer if I didn’t use my fingernails as screwdrivers.



This week, I listened to Dingo by Harley Wylde. It’s narrated by Umi Markkanen who is one of my all time favorites, right up there with the duet narration of Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross. The only narrator I like better is Troy Duran (squee!) whose voice is sex on a stick. I have a squee-crush on him like I do Wander Aguiar.


I love Harley Wylde. She’s right up there with Marteeka Karland. Both write entertaining MC Romance.


Dingo has a lot of triggers, but it’s definitely a good listen.


Here’s my review:

Cat’s Stats

MMC/FMC -Dingo and Meiling

Genre- MC Romance

Length- 5 hours and 37 minutes

Series - Y

Safety- N (see triggers)

Triggers- Oh, son. If you have triggers, listen to another book. There’s SA and forced prostitution as the biggies. Other triggers abound. Be warned.

Tropes- Instalove, Damsel in Distress, Oh- By the Way- We’re Married!, Forced Proximity, Age Gap, Club Princess?, Vengeance Is Mine

Mewsings

This one has all the triggers except arson and simony. SA is not detailed and mostly happens off page, although it is discussed.* No cheating.

I thought this story was very good. I liked how supportive Dingo was and how strong Mei was. The sex scenes between them were super hot.

It wasn’t easy to listen to, but it was worth it.

As always, Umi Markkanen, the narrator, was excellent. She does all of the voices really well. I love listening to her.
