Re: March!
I finished The Clockmaker's Wife and it was not great. Then The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green, which was AWESOME. Then a book I won called On The Waterfront by Mike McCoy. Premise: good Execution: not as good Then The Guest List by Lucy Foley. I read it on the balcony this afternoon while R ha...
March!
I am about to start The Clockmaker's Wife by Daisy Wood. WWII London.
Re: February!
I finished The Nine Lives of Rose Napolitano and it was ok. I loved the premise but I couldn't rouse myself to care all that much.
Re: February!
I finished Turtles All the Way Down. Solid 4 stars.
Now I have The Nine Lives of Rose Napolitano by Donna Freitas.

Re: February!
Rowan that book sounds intriguing. I've often thought that if the roles were reversed (in general) and sports were "for women" they'd be seen as frivolous and silly.
Re: February!
I finished The Heart of the Deal and it was ok. I liked the premise but it all seemed very surface level. The first couple chapters were bad, then it got better, but not that great.
Now I have Turtles All the Way Down by John Green. I know that will make me feel something.

Now I have The Heart of The Deal by Lindsay MacMillan.

Re: January 2023!
Blush - I really liked Evvie Drake and I don't tend to love that genre. It was well written and I felt the story was "mature". Agreed! 4 stars. I have a few little nitpicks but overall quite good. Now I have Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I LOVED Malibu Rising and Daisy Jones...

Re: January 2023!
I finished Dream On. It was like a Hallmark movie in book form. No real substance, clunky dialogue. The plot was decent.
Now I have Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes.

Re: January 2023!
I love freezing holds. I finished One Night on The Island. It was ok, but could have used an editor. Little things like a Boston family who takes their kids to the lake (somewhere within driving distance, so probably not a hot place) every *checks notes* October (school year) for 2 weeks? Unlikely. ...

Re: January 2023!
I finished Drunk on Love. It was ok; the dialogue was a bit clunky which I don't recall from the other book of hers I read.
Now I have One Night on The Island by Josie Silver. It is cute so far.

Re: January 2023!
Yesterday I read We Are The Light by Matthew Quick. It was weird but good.
Now I have Drunk on Love by Jasmine Guillory.

Re: December!
Yes, that's the one. I think I rated it a bit higher because compared to the one I had just finished, at least the writing and dialogue were decent!
Re: December!
I did finish one more: Golden Girl by Elin Hidebrand. Her books are solidly reliable.
Re: December!
I finished You Will Remember Me. Plot was ok, writing was not great.
That's my goal, 72 books for the year! I might be able to get one more in.
