Cute book to learning tips to loving yourself as females. Tips on comparing yourself to others and prioritizing self care.

The Wife Upstairs
by Rachel Hawkins

book cover


I don't normally read lighthearted, true crime type thrillers, but this book was exactly the fodder I needed to get me engrossed in a story during a time of loss. Many of the criticisms I read in other reviews talked about how the story was predictable, but this is what I liked about it. I don't do well with suspense, so reading a Jane Eyre reimagination (one of my favorite books) was good, predictable comfort reading.

I have just re read this book after about 20 years. Still in my top 5 favorite books and authors. Louise Erdrich is masterful at weaving together family histories and stories.

Every Summer After by Carley Fortune was an emotional and engaging read with a strong summer atmosphere and an interesting dual timeline story. I enjoyed the chemistry between the main characters and the nostalgic feel throughout the book. Some parts were a little predictable, but the writing kept me interested. Overall, it was a good contemporary romance that I enjoyed, and I would rate it around 3.5 out of 5 stars.

So good, I loved it so much. Very easy to read and understand, while also not being predictable and boring. I have always been a huge fan of E. Lockhart's writing, even before the show adaptation of We Were Liars was announced and I can't wait to see what she does next!

Nightbane

book cover


It was nice to get a little more background on some characters, but the last couple chapters felt rushed. There was a lot of build to what was supposed to happen, but I felt I got too much information too fast at the end. I felt there was a little disconnect from the first book for motivations of characters.

What if You and me

rated: 3.5 The book actually looks so romantic but it also has a reaally interesting story which revolves around the lead characters wh are trying to overcome their fears and misconceptions of life. And its really heart-warming to read when they actually do it and they enjoy their new beginnings with a very fresh perspective.
