Susanne’s Review: Take a mini-vacation with Elin Hilderbrand’s The Hotel Nantucket! Immersing myself in this novel felt like I was in Nantucket, traipsing the cobblestone streets and going to Miacomet. If only! I barely even remember what a vacation feels like at this point! The new novel by Elin Hilderbrand centers around The Hotel Nantucket,Continue reading “The Hotel Nantucket by Elin Hilderbrand @elinhilderbrand @littlebrown @NetGalley #contemporaryfiction #womensfiction”

My Summer Darlings by May Cobb @BerkleyPub @NetGalley @edelweiss_squad #fiction #domestic suspense #mystery #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: Extremely Weak Women. Anger, Betrayal, and Idiocy. Fake “Lifelong” Female Friends who backstab each other day in, day out. Graphic Nasty Raunchy Trashy Sex. Color me sick. To be perfectly frank, absolutely revolted. In case you didn’t get it, this book was not for me. The main reason is this: I abhor booksContinue reading “My Summer Darlings by May Cobb @BerkleyPub @NetGalley @edelweiss_squad #fiction #domestic suspense #mystery #bookreview #bookblogger”
The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis @JillShalvis @WmMorrowBooks @NetGalley #contemporaryfiction #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: Just Right. I’ve always believed that family is what you make of it, thus the new series by Jill Shalvis, The Family You Make, struck a chord with me. Jane is a woman who has never stayed in one place A nomad who has moved around, she grew up in Sunrise Cove andContinue reading “The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis @JillShalvis @WmMorrowBooks @NetGalley #contemporaryfiction #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger”
The It Girl by Ruth Ware @RuthWareWriter @GalleryBooks @NetGalley #thriller #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: Can You Say Ruh Roh? The It Girl started out strong and petered out at the end. I had such high hopes for this one! I adore Ruth Ware and admittedly love character driven novels. In the beginning I was all in and that excitement carried on until about 70-75% and then IContinue reading “The It Girl by Ruth Ware @RuthWareWriter @GalleryBooks @NetGalley #thriller #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger”
A Brush With Love by Mazey Eddings @foxygrandpa27 @MacmillanAudio @librofm #romcom #romance #bookreview #bookblogger
Kaceey’s Review: Harper is obsessed with getting accepted into a top oral surgery residency program! She eats, breathes and sleeps all things “oral surgery.” Ok, maybe a slight exaggeration, but she truly is one highly focused gal! Dan is also a fellow dental student, but lacks the passion and drive that Harper has. But he isContinue reading “A Brush With Love by Mazey Eddings @foxygrandpa27 @MacmillanAudio @librofm #romcom #romance #bookreview #bookblogger”
Nine Lives by Peter Swanson @PeterSwanson3 @WmMorrowBooks @NetGalley #Suspense #mystery #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: Intriguing! Nine random people receive an identical list in the mail with nine names, including their own. No other information is included. One of the nine names is FBI agent Jessica Winslow – she is the only one to give the list pause. As soon as one of the nine individuals is murderedContinue reading “Nine Lives by Peter Swanson @PeterSwanson3 @WmMorrowBooks @NetGalley #Suspense #mystery #bookreview #bookblogger”
Bend Toward The Sun by Jen Devon @StMartinsPress #goodreadsgiveaway #romance #bookblogger #bookreview
Kaceey’s Review: I definitely qualify as an outlier for this one. Rowan and Harry meet in a most unexpected way. They somehow find themselves face to face, as Harry catches her in a joyful game of hide and seek. Rowan is the type who likes to be known as a winner and won’t go downContinue reading “Bend Toward The Sun by Jen Devon @StMartinsPress #goodreadsgiveaway #romance #bookblogger #bookreview”

How will Freya recover? Will she recover? Will her heart ever mend enough for her to leave the houseContinue reading “The Wedding Season by Katy Birchall @KatyBirchall @StMartinsPress @NetGalley #womensfiction #contemporaryfiction #bookreviewers”
Here For The Drama by Kate Bromley @kbromleywrites @HarlequinBooks @NetGalley #romcom #romance #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: The Honest Truth? I was not “Here for the Drama.” My thought while reading this was: REALLY?! No one’s lives are that dramatic!! (Even for actors and playwrights!) It’s just not possible. My eyes were constantly rolling. Yes, this book had its cute moments, I cannot tell a lie, but for me, theyContinue reading “Here For The Drama by Kate Bromley @kbromleywrites @HarlequinBooks @NetGalley #romcom #romance #bookreview #bookblogger”
