Katherine Center is an automatic read for me! She writes characters that come alive and that I care for and root for. The Rom-Commers was no exception. Emma Wheeler is a screen writer who wishes she could use her talent but is dedicated to taking care of her father. Her father was injured in a camping… Continue reading The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center
This was an eye-opening book! If you haven't read this one you SHOULD! I could not put this book down about the communist regime in Romania. In 1989, Romania is ruled by dictator, Nicalae Ceausescu. I didn't realize that was a fact. This is a fictional story but based in facts. Cristian Florescu and his family… Continue reading I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys
I always enjoy a good historical fiction once in a while and this one with light houses was a good one! This had me feeling all the feelings! Australia, 1926. After four harrowing years fighting on the Western Front, Tom Sherbourne returns home to take a job as the lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, nearly half… Continue reading The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman
This was a murder mystery told in dual timelines. I love dual timelines and discovering things while the current story is taking place. I think this is for fans of Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None & Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club. Frances Adams spends her life trying to prevent/solve her own murder. In 1965… Continue reading How To Solve Your Own Murder by Kristen Perrin
I've recently become a Tessa Bailey fan. This book was no exception and I loved everything about it. I was excited that this is book#1 in her Big Shots series. I'm really loving the sport romance genre. Wells Whitaker is an infamous pro golfer, but lately his game has gone down the drain. He is… Continue reading Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey
I re-read this one so that I could read the 2nd book and I remembered why I like Leigh Bardugo so much! This is an academic fantasy you could get lost in. Alex (Galaxy) Stern gets an offer to go to Yale after being the sole survivor of a multiple homicide. Once at Yale, Alex… Continue reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
I'm fairly new to Sarah Adams but I loved this cute (smutty) romance. This is the enemies to lovers trope and I really get into that one. The plot of this one is right up my alley and it is a sports romance as well. The plot: Nora Mackenzie’s entire career lies in the hands… Continue reading The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
This was a very ghoulish atmospheric, gothic type book. If your looking for that vibe, this book will have you covered. I think this is a bit on the YA side as I feel like the plot and character development aren't as mature as her other books. But I still enjoyed this one for the… Continue reading Gallant by V.E. Schwab
This nod to bookshops by Woods and Gaughan was whimsical and charming. I'm always a fan of a book with magical realism, especially one with a bookstore! ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street… Continue reading The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, Evie Gaughan
Murder Road is a typical St. James book. It's a mystery/thriller with a ghost story feel. Some people have to read her books with the lights on and this one is no exception. In the summer of July 1995, April and Eddie set out on what was supposed to be the romantic getaway, heading towards… Continue reading Murder Road by Simone St. James
