I went into the library to pick up READY OR NOT (my penultimate book for #AuldLangSpine 2025!), but of course I couldn‘t resist this anthology of urban poetry from Africa off the New Stuff stand.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sometimes a book just hits you at the right time. May is so insane, this was the perfect #bookclub pick. Funny and thoughtful. A lovable, strong female lead, and two male characters that were likable even in uncomfortable/challenging circumstances. A believable, relatable scenario and a satisfying ending. And, OMG, Nurse Louise!

AileenRR Wasn‘t this good?!? I did want more of an epilogue, though. 4w

britt_brooke @AileenRR I would LOVE an epilogue!! 4w

JamieArc This one surprised me. I didn‘t expect to like it as much as I did. 4w

britt_brooke @JamieArc Same! I‘d never read any of her books, and wasn‘t sure what to expect. 4w

This was delightful and real and messy and sweet. Just loved it. A one night stand leads to an unplanned pregnancy, leaving our young heroine to navigate a new path with a man she barely knows and shifting all her other relationships as well. The audiobook was top notch - narrator Alex Finley is terrific. This is my first book by this author and I‘ll definitely read another.

Ugh, did I like this book. Not only do we have a will they won‘t they, but even hits you in the feels about motherhood. I feel I even learned a little about myself with this one. Possible top romance read of the year!

Eve finds herself pregnant after a one night stand.

What happens after is the start of a slow-burn romance - not with the baby daddy, but with a man she has been friends with since childhood.

The audiobook was narrated fantastically!

AmyG Thanks for posting. Always looking for a well-narrated audiobook. 4mo
