so-soOverall, I was very disappointed with what I got. For as excited as I was to read this book, it was a big letdown. This was my first book by this author. Will I read another? Probably not. I wouldn‘t recommend this book. I will be rating it 3 stars as the main parts were an enjoyable read. The past lives were just filler, and not done well.

panI really struggled with this book. It had way too many POVs for me. I would have preferred the book to have been limited to Holly & Marinus. The rest is just background noise. The book did get better, but it had dragged so much in so many spots that I just wanted to be done. I rated it 2 stars. (this is my last book for January- I am updated!)

pickI really enjoyed this book. I would definitely read more by this author. However, don't get me started on the parents that were portrayed in the story... some of them need some serious help! LOL! I gave this book 4 stars. (January)

so-soI struggled with this book. It was slow at points and fine at others. Then it just ends without wrapping everything up. I wanted more of a conclusion for this poor guy. I felt like he was just left hanging with his life in shreds. I rated it 3 stars. (catching up from January)

bailedSo, I intended to read The Country Girls by Edna O'Brien for my book club, and I downloaded her biography instead. I read the whole book BEFORE I realized that I was reading the wrong book. Unfortunately for me, I am not a fan of non-fiction. it just isn't my thing. Totally my fault for not verifying it was the right book, BUT the titles were almost identical, and it was the same author. I gave it 1 star. (Jan)

pickThis was by far my favorite book that I read in January. I couldn't put it down. I read all 673 pages in one sitting. It's insane how good this book is. It will be hard to beat this one. Obviously, I gave it 5 stars.
#BookedForLife
pickI went into this book not knowing what to expect, and I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed the book immensely. The ending was bittersweet. I gave it 4 stars. (from January)
