This is the second book that I’ve read from Chuck Wendig. I really enjoyed the first book, The Book of Accidents. And I saw a lot of talk about this book when it first came out. So, I decided I needed to give it a try. I’m really glad I did, because I had a […]
After burying her last living relation and most dear Aunt Bee, Sissy faces a lonely holiday season and dreary future. But that was before she discovered the boisterous Sunshine Club had her back and were ready to teach her something about found family and love. I was tickled to dive into a new small town […]
Inheritance, the first book of the Lost Bride’s Trilogy is right up my ally. It is a mashup of romance, suspense, some paranormal activity and a mystery two centuries in the making. In a glorious gothic mansion that just oozes “I’m haunted vibes”, the story starts to take shape on the curse that lives in […]
This author continues to impress me with her life fiction with characters who struggle and grow and love, where everything does not go smoothly and joy can be found in unexpected places. These realistic and imperfect characters are so easy to love. The setup is classic with the haves and have nots at a elite […]
I’ve been really enjoying the Well Met series with its setting in renaissance faires. In each book, we meet more of the regular performers who travel the circuit of faires.  One wouldn’t have to read the series in order, but I do because of the character developments and knowing more about the supporting characters. The […]

Tom and Lily Bradley have children, Phoebe and Matthew. […]
I’ve been really enjoying the Well Met series with its small town setting and the summer renaissance fair.  The couple in Well Matched is two characters we have known throughout the series. Mitch is an institution at the renfaire so I was thrilled to see him getting his development with a background and more personal […]
The Hope Chest is a smidgen outside my normal reading genres. There are no fae or dragons, far off lands or epic quests to undertake but sometimes a story about going home can really just hit the spot. Three cousins spent two weeks each summer at their grandmother’s house. For all three, they were the […]
I started listening to The Lies That Bind at about 6 pm when I went out to pull weeds, and continued to listen, finishing the book at 3am. The story is more life fiction than thriller. There is a progression for Cecily who has to learn what she really wants, how to build a relationship […]
I’ve been wanting to read this author and finally grabbed this audio and did. It’s easier with non series to jump into the work but it’s also a whole new world and story and characters. The Sun Down Motel is a told in two alternating points of view. One is Viv who worked at the […]
