Title: Her Knight at the Museum

Author: Bryn Donovan

Release Date: November 12, 2024

Thank you NetGalley and Berkley for the opportunity to read the ARC. My review is my honest opinion.

Her Knight at the Museum by Bryn Donovan is a romance that will have you turning the page. Was the book a little corny at times? Yes. Did that make me love it any less? No. Donovan has done her research about Medieval Times, and even with the stretches she made to make the plot points work, as a historian, I was very satisfied.

The love story between Griffin and Emily felt a little rushed and instalove, but that didn’t detract from anything. Their chemistry was great, the spice levels in the book were high, and I was rooting for Emily to fall just as hard as Griffin for the entirety of the book.

I am a huge fan of time travel romances, and it’s very rare that you find one where the historical man is brought forward in time. Watching Griffin try to make sense of the modern world was definitely my favorite part of the book. I need to find more books with this premise, and read them.

There was a storyline involving the FBI and art theft that definitely kept me stressed out throughout the story, but it was a good stress, if that makes sense.

If you love time-travel romances, this is definitely the book for you. I also heard rumors this is going to be turned into a Hallmark movie, if that is true, sign. me. up.

Well, this was a re-read from elementary school, in preparation of me reading James, and it was something. I felt the book went on for all the some time. Just when I would think Huck’s adventure was wrapping up, he went on another. The book was fairly repetitive and it was one I couldn’t listen to without ear buds in at work, due to the racist terms. I’m glad I read it though, because I think having the story fresh in my mind will help when I read James.

I was really looking forward to this book, and I was kind of let down. The main female character was not as strong as I hoped she would be. She sort of let stuff happen to her, and didn’t push back a lot. The last eighty or so pages were really good, however, and I will probably read the next book in the series to see what happens next.

This book was so much fun. I really enjoyed reading it and getting to know the people in this new series. I love Jen DeLuca, and I was so excited to see she had a new series, and I wasn’t disappointed. The plot was on point, the characters felt real, and I loved the romance. Everything felt realistic, I would totally believe there is a town full of ghosts in Florida. That feels like it could really be a thing! I can’t wait for the next book in the series to come, I already have hopes and dreams who the book will be about!

This book was lovely. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and it had the exact outcome I had hoped for. I have loved everything I’ve read by Beth O’Leary, and this book was no different.

Sometimes you just have to read a book because your curiosity was piqued by the cover. This was one of those books. Not a lot of substance, but it was fun, and I borrowed the next book from Kindle Unlimited, because we all need some fun reads every once in a while.

I wanted to love this book, but I just couldn’t. Everyone was terrible. There was not one redeeming character in this book. I couldn’t root for the main couple, because I didn’t think they deserved to be together. Jack was terrible, and he did some things that were pretty unforgivable.

Can’t believe I’ve never read this before. I had no idea that most of the pirate lore that is in our culture today came from this book! I thought the book was pretty interesting, and the adventure was fun, however, this book also dragged at spots. They spent a lot of time walking around that island. But the book was a fun read in all, and I really enjoyed listening to it.

It’s always great when a book lives up to the hype. This book was so good. The romance was on point. I loved all the characters. I especially loved the way OCD was portrayed in the book. I felt it was a fast read, that the stakes were high, and the romance swoon worthy. I can’t wait for the next book in the series to come out.

This book was full of moments where I was just yelling nope in my car. Lots of body horror, and lots of creepy things occurring. Do not read if you have a phobia of dolls or clowns. And in true Grady Hendrix fashion, the book got weird, fast. I liked how there were aspects that I totally predicted and moments where there was no way I would have ever predicted it.

This book was everything I hoped it would be. I loved it so much. Going back to the island, seeing the kids, watching Linus and Arthur’s relationship from Arthur’s POV…all worth it. I don’t want to say too much, but the children are still delightful, and the conflict will make your blood boil, but in true Klune fashion, everything works out.
