Lila’s [unplanned] adventure across the pond really resonated with me. She came from Miami with such a close knit, future decided for her since childhood. But after a few back to back losses, her family sent her to the UK to stay with a longtime family friend to get some distance from life in Miami.… Continue reading 21.

Anna’s story was the latest of Helen Hoang’s Kiss Quotient books. I really liked that a family member we met in the first book, was present all the way through, and truly felt that the stories about life with Autism for three separate individuals really came full circle, which just how different, yet similar people’s… Continue reading 20. The Heart Principle (The Kiss Quotient Book 3)
This was another one of my quick reads, that just screamed feel good happy. I mean it has ‘Christmas’ in the title, it’s right up my alley. All I Want for Christmas is a Hallmark movie in a book, and that was expected. The love story of the season, will leave you feeling the Christmas… Continue reading 19. All I Want For Christmas
This is the second book in the Kiss Quotient series and it follows a similar set up. One main character is autistic and really good with numbers, the other loves them unconditionally, despite the hiccups. I enjoyed this installment of the series almost as much as the first for the same reasons. The bonus with… Continue reading 18. The Bride Test (The Kiss Quotient Book 2)
This series was such a welcomed surprise! I wasn’t sure what it was about, but came across the books on Libby and had seen the cover on Book of the Month and on social media. One I started, it all just became more and more interesting. The details, the story line, the progression of lives… Continue reading 17. The Kiss Quotient

Meddy is a loyal daughter and niece to her mom and aunties, but that loyalty goes both ways, and very deep.… Continue reading 16. Dial A For Aunties
Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Mary Jane - no this book is not about Marijuana, it’s about a young, impressionable girl named, you guessed it - Mary Jane. This whole book is based on one 1970s summer in Baltimore, where miss Mary Jane takes on a job in town babysitting for a local, out of the… Continue reading 15. Mary Jane
I only picked this read up after recognizing the cover over and over again through stores and social media. The story itself is about a man who has, for the most part, lived the same life year after year. Work, home, work, home, work, home. Then, his higher ups recognize his ability to “be unbiased”… Continue reading 14. The House In The Cerulean Sea

The Trouble With Hating You
I will say that this was my least favorite of the series by a long shot, but it was nice to feel like you’re caught up, but would have been fine never reading it. There was some nice moments, where people came together, but the entire time I was confused as to where exactly on… Continue reading 12. A Court of Frost and Starlight (3.1)
