It’s been a minute since i shared what I’ve been reading! I have tried my best to keep reading even with the craziness of the move. I won’t share too much since I have quite a few books to share, but I will share my ratings!
May
Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty // 3 Stars
I love most of Liane’s books but this one fell a little flat for me! It wasn’t bad, just not as amazing as Big Little Lies or What Alice Forgot.
Becoming My Sister by V.C. Andrews // 1 Star (0 if that was an option on Goodreads)
HORRIBLE. Worst book I’ve ever read, honestly.
Book Lovers by Emily Henry // 5 Stars
I love Emily Henry’s novels. Perfect summer reads – and this one is my favorite yet! I love how it plays off of Hallmark movies, but not in a super cheesy way.
The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult // 3 Stars
This one was really interesting, I learned so much about Egypt. I just didn’t love the main character/plot.
Business Minded by Carly Riordan // 4.5 Stars
Love Carly, loved this book! If you have any interest in starting a business, this would be helpful.
Seven Days in June by Tia Williams // 3.75 Stars
This one gave me a little bit of whiplash because parts of it were really dark but other parts read just like a rom-com! Worth a read but don’t expect it to be upbeat the entire time.
Romancing Mr. Bridgerton (Bridgerton Book #4) by Julia Quinn // 5 Stars
Colin and Penelope are the best Bridgerton couple – this made me SO excited for their season of the show!
June
To Sir Phillip, With Love (Bridgerton Book #5) by Julia Quinn // 1 Star
Eloise deserved better. Had to take a Bridgerton break after this one. I’m interested to see how they translate this one on the show.
One by One by Ruth Ware // 2.5 Stars
Super predictable. I love a group-of-people-in-a-remote-location whodunnit but this was not it.
Local Woman Missing by Mary Kubica // 5 Stars
A great thriller! It was really creepy and towards the big twist I had sort of figured it out, it still surprised me and was really well done.
The Summer I Turned Pretty (Book 1) by Jenny Han // 5 Stars
Had to reread in honor of the TV series. 10/10 just like the show!
The Summer I Turned Pretty (Book 2) by Jenny Han // 3 Stars
Not as good or exciting as the first, but not terrible.
The Summer I Turned Pretty (Books 3) by Jenny Han // 2.5 Stars
This plotline gave me major stress. I can’t remember what I thought when I read it at 14/15, but I can tell you 23 year old me was so confused by the plot line.
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston // 2.5 Stars
I LOVE Casey McQuiston’s other two novels. Like favorite books of all time love. But this one was so confusing to me, it just didn’t make sense? I loved the main character and the ending was really heartwarming! But the first 75% of the book just had me scratching my head.
Currently Reading…
- The Guncle by Steven Rowley(way behind on my June bookclub…)
- The American Royals Series by Katharine McGee (the third came out recently, so of course I had to reread the first two!)
Be sure to keep up with me on social media if you want to keep up with what I’m reading in real time!
