Wow. Cried my way through this entire book. the relationship between Greta and Conrad was so profound. The way they grew together throughout their week on the boat – I’m sorry, ship – was great. I think it was dealt with perfectly and realistically. The ending was so full of hope, it left me wanting more. (BOTM)

The book was okay. Nothing to get excited over. I felt the plot was really lacking due to pacing. Once everything was revealed, I wished Harris had done more with the OBC plot earlier in the book than where she expounded and revealed it. (BOTM)

I’m not an Outlander fan, but I’m a history fan, and I loved listening to this book. I don’t know much about Scottish history, so I found everything to be incredibly fascinating. I cried a few times and I laughed a lot.

Creative retelling or adaptation of Peter Pan. I enjoy these immensely, particularly when Pan is the villain. The book has all the trigger warnings, so be forewarned, and this book is probably one of the saddest I’ve read all year. However, there is also hope. My favorite thing was the way Michalski incorporated the Pan characters. I felt that there needed to be a few more details in the backstory, but overall I really enjoyed this book. (BOTM)

Not great. Not terrible. I feel like nothing really happed in the story. Found it hard to root for any of the characters, no one was likeable. the ending was very anti-climactic. Just left me with a general ‘meh’ feeling. (BOTM)

This book wasn’t what I expected – in a good way. I expected a book about a man dating three women at the same time, which wasn’t what I got. Instead, I got a book about mental health, grief and moving on. I loved every second of the book, even though it made me cry. A lot.

Hilarious. Oscar Wilde does it again. the play is witty and fast paced. I enjoyed it very much. Wilde’s sense of humor is timeless.

Edge of my seat, couldn’t stop reading. Loved the way Shepherd tld the story through multiple points of view. Never would have thought cartography could be so thrilling. The idea of this book was so unique it really kept it interesting. Loved Agloe and the whole idea of phantom towns. (BOTM)

I have always wanted to read this. For not liking poetry I really enjoyed it, especially the beginning and the end. Got a bit lost when Dante began listing his enemies in the middle.

Reminded me of Rebecca and Haunting of Hill House, except it was how I wanted Rebecca to be – spooky, dangerous, forbidden. I loved that Beatriz did something. She found Andres, the priest/witch who was too sexy for his own good. The book was engaging, atmospheric and it was impossible to put down. (BOTM)

While it had a few good twists, the book was merely okay. It was trying to do too much and there were so many characters I didn’t really find myself connecting with any of them. The book felt like it went halfway with a lot of the details and really left me wanting more. (BOTM)

This book was just as good as the first. I really enjoyed every second of it. I am really becoming a sucker for the trope of two people falling in love so I instantly fell in love with Stacey and Daniel’s story. I thought their story was sweet and realistic. Of course, I cried. I also want to go to the Ren Faire.
