A whodunit with one twist after the next, and with an interesting, old soul as storyteller. Laugh, cry and test your skill at reading the characters and putting the puzzle together.

Loved this book! It was a great end to the three part series, and Abby Jimenez does a great job at tastefully showcasing mental illness and trauma in modern love stories. Great summer read!

The Queens Of Crime
by Marie Benedict

book cover


The book is based on a real group of women mystery writers in England, none of whom I’ve heard of though they’re famous, and Agatha Christie, who was added by the author. The women want to be taken seriously like their male counterparts and think that to do so, they will solve a real murder (which evidently was true). It’s written in Agatha Christie-type form and language. If you’re a fan of that genre, you’ll probably enjoy the novel. I thought it was okay and it was an easy read. Didn’t love it, but it kept my interest.

A great story about love, family. A couple who spent their life together entertain, to sing, to dance. The O'Hurleys started out with a family of one boy when Mrs. O'Hurley went into labor while in route to one of the shows. To the family's surprise triplets were born, all girls. The children were raised to travel on the road taught to sing, dance and entertain just as their parents were. As they grew up, they all choose different lives. The bond the trippets had remained strong. Obstacles in life, divorces and finding love again, first loves the family always was there for one another.

I find myself really enjoying her books. This is based on relationships, avoiding them after being hurt. A woman meets a man after she moves in temporary with her brother. This couple has a mutual physical attraction that can't be denied. He isn't looking for love and she doesn't have time for it. The main won't talk about his past and she agrees to follow two rules. I won't say any more about this book.

The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a gripping psychological tale of a woman’s descent into madness. Through vivid symbolism and claustrophobic imagery, it critiques the oppression of women and the dangers of silencing their voices. Its a detailed look into unchecked mental illness.

Short and sweet, it is what it is. Yes, it could have just been another chapter in the third books, but it's fine.

Kaleidoscope

book cover


Cecily Wong's "Kaleidoscope" is a poignant and introspective exploration of grief, friendship, and self-discovery, told through the lens of a young woman grappling with the sudden loss of her best friend. Through lyrical prose and a non-linear narrative that mimics the fractured nature of memory, Wong crafts a moving portrait of the ways in which loss can reshape our understanding of ourselves and those we love.

I read this book within 30 hours and I loved it very much. I actually LOL’d a few times. I like how this books isn’t just romance but has other things going on like the dogs, and trying to find a dad. I wish at some moments we got more, like what happened when they were zip lining. Usually I prefer books to be shorter but I really wish this one were longer because of how much I enjoyed it. I would recommend this so anyone who likes romance, music, dogs, and rom-coms.
