NUMBER 13! 📚Continuing the countdown of my books, from 1st to 25th, THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Today it‘s my 13th, SECRETS OF EDEN (2010), a novel about what looks like a domestic abuse murder-suicide. This was my third movie and starred a terrific John Stamos.
pick⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Unexpectedly got caught up in this boys of tommen series. Serious topics of DV & neglect, characters you fall in love with, loved the lynches situation at the end BUT If I‘m honest this book dragged a little and quite a few cringe moments 😣but that might be my age 😅, that being said I will probably at some point read the others and get other characters stories
pickJohnny‘s recovering from an injury that keeps him from rugby, but could bring him closer to Shannon. Shannon has to deal w/ CPS in keeping her family together. How will they juggle spending time w/ each other & deal w/ family stuff?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I liked this one a little better than the first one. There‘s a little more romance & Shannon had a bit of a character arc. There was also less DV & bullying. The ending was cute.
pickI knew the subject matter before going in. I was not emotionally prepared. It was good. Just took me a while to process. I want her to go back to that town.

Well two sentences ... but context!

It‘s not my habit to buy new books because I get so many from the library and Lord only knows when I‘ll actually read these, but I‘m so happy to have them. Europa Editions rarely steers me wrong and I‘ve really liked Chidgey‘s work before so I‘m looking forward to it. And of course The God of the Woods has been getting lots of love lately. 💕💕💕
