There’s something wonderful about small town romances. I’m always comforted by a supportive community where everyone knows each other and pitches in to help those in need, and I look forward to meeting the quirky residents. Runaway Groomsman has all that, plus heartfelt vibes and a slow build, wholesome love story.
A Little Too Wild by Devney Perry is now live!
A Little Too Close is one of those rare books that has conflict without an antagonist. Even without a “bad guy” I stayed interested in the struggles of the main character throughout, and I found this to be an exceptionally enjoyable story.
“He runs from the altar—and finds love in the place he least expects.” RUNAWAY GROOMSMAN, a brand new, heartfelt romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn about new beginnings and finding the romanticized happily ever after in the most unlikely of places, is Now Available in all formats! Dive into this slow burn romance with “a healthy dose of humor and heart” (Library Journal).
Someone, please book me a trip to Madigan Mountain, STAT! I don’t even ski, but A Little Too Late has me envisioning a vacation on a snowy mountain ski resort, snowboarding down the bunny slope, a big mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows cupped in my hands, and a soak in a glorious hot tub at the end of the day. I feel like I became part of Madigan Mountain, and I’m homesick now.
On the heels of Ali Hazelwood’s breakout hit,The Love Hypothesis, Love on the Brain had a lot to live up to. I’m pleased to say that while I didn’t love it as much, Love on the Brain is still quite enjoyable. I like how Hazelwood portrays women in STEM as quirky and fun. It seems to be her storytelling signature, and it’s right up my alley.
Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Topographic Book Covers. This includes book covers with a design that is all or mostly all words. (Topic submitted by Mareli @ Elza Reads) I’m addicted to typography and cover design, so this was a fun challenge. I chose some covers that either set the tone for the book or that compliment the plot. Other covers I picked just because they look so darn cool!
I enjoyed Memories of a Life far more than the first book, where my issues with the main character overshadowed my appreciation of the story.
Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Books on My Fall To-Be-Read List. It’s an ambitious list, especially since I have limited time to read these days. I’m curious to how many I actually wind up reading.
Memories of a Life: Colten & Josie: Part Two by Jewel E. Ann is now live!
Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Books with Geographical Terms in the Title (mountain, island, border, city, coast, country, desert, sea, shore, tide, valley, etc.) (Submitted by Lisa of Hopewell). I had to dig deep into my Read shelf and TBR pile for this one, but it was fun.
This hurts. I don’t think I’ve ever rated a Jewel E. Ann book less than four stars. After all, she is probably my favorite author. I love how she mixes humor with gut-wrenching emotions. Pieces of a Life isn’t bad, but it is missing Jewel E. Ann’s signature sparkle.
