    No Matter What by Cara Bastone

    Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed by this. The book has a slow pace that may bore some readers who prefer a faster story like me. You hit 40% yet barely anything has happened. Another criticism is the lack of communication. It was hard to believe this couple was married for 8 years. TALK, just TALK with your partner! That’s the secret of a long relationship.  Sometimes love sends you back to the drawing board. After a traumatic accident threatens the foundations of their happy marriage, a couple tries to rebuild and find their way back to each other—and themselves—in this tender, slow-burn romance. Roz and Vin can’t look each other in…

    In Her Own League by Liz Tomforde

    Such a great story to help to ease the loss of the Windy City series. I really liked how Monty and Reese’s relationship developed and how natural their connection felt but I wanted to see them banter a little bit more ngl. Also, I feel like the story could’ve been shorter. I did feel the length in some parts but I still had a good time with it. I am very intrigued to see what Liz Tomforde has planned for her next series. As the first female team owner in Major League Baseball, Reese Remington has spent her entire life preparing for this role. With a sharp mind and years…

    Cleopatra by Saara El-Arifi

    I really love the way that Saara El-Arifi portrayed Cleopatra’s story. Cleopatra is always written as a misunderstood saint,  or the devil incarnate but in this book we can see Cleopatra as just a person. A human being. A woman who is just trying to do the right thing for her people and her family. I would have given it a 5 but it was a bit slow and spent more time on her early life than the later. But this is a beautiful piece that intertwined historical facts and fiction, nonetheless.  Queen, Legend, Cleopatra tells her own story in this evocative and sensuous historical epic Cleopatra, from the bestselling and…

    The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow

    I’m the odd one out about this one. I was honestly bored to death while reading this. I really really want to like it and I tried! but reading essentially the same thing over and over again with just a few details changed each time isn’t my thing. It was a struggle. I couldn’t wait for it to end. I haven’t read anything else by this author and I’m not sure I want to now. From Alix E. Harrow, the New York Times bestselling author of Starling House, comes a moving and genre-defying quest about the lady-knight whose legend built a nation, and the cowardly historian sent back through time to make sure…

    The Heartbreak Hotel by Ellen O’Clover

    The story line was cute, but the book felt like it dragged on too long. Also, Henry has apparently liked Lou since he first saw her, but we have no real reason as to why Henry likes Lou. Their relationship was sweet and I did like Henry, but it all felt so sudden. I do feel like this author has a lot of potential though. I will definitely keep an eye on her.  ❝ I came because I have this new ailment where I feel sick if I haven’t seen you in a few days.❞ A bed-and-breakfast for the brokenhearted might hold the key to another chance at love in…

    The Storm by Rachel Hawkins

    I tried really hard to get into this one but it was just a major struggle for me. DNF. St. Medard’s Bay, Alabama is famous for three things: the deadly hurricanes that regularly sweep into town, the Rosalie Inn, a century-old hotel that’s survived every one of those storms, and Lo Bailey, the local girl infamously accused of the murder of her lover, political scion Landon Fitzroy, during Hurricane Marie in 1984. When Geneva Corliss, the current owner of the Rosalie Inn, hears a writer is coming to town to research the crime that put St. Medard’s Bay on the map, she’s less interested in solving a whodunnit than in…
