The Postcard by Anne Berest
The Postcard was a great historical fiction, mixed with an autobiographical type story. This one left me shaking my head! THAT ENDING!! I didn't know if I should laugh or cry! The main character received a mysterious postcard with only four names on one side of the postcard. They are: Ephraim, Emma, Noemie, and Jacques.… Continue reading The Postcard by Anne Berest
The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren
“I want to be here to bring you coffee. I want to take you out to dinner and order the same food and hear you recite the odds that we would have met.

Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood
This is an enemies to lovers trope that is in true Hazelwood style and I couldn't get enough of it. This has the huge hunky guy. The smart, cute, little scientist.

Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
This was a very strange book about Mexican horror films and Nazi occultism. I didn't know what to think of this one. I have read Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia but this one was a little different. This had such an odd and sinister feel. I felt like I was watching one of those old… Continue reading Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
