I absolutely loved this book. A romance novel without any corny sex scenes, and you get to learn about Muslim culture. It was a fun, light read, and I highly recommend it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

megnews Beautiful cover 5y
marleed I know what you mean. I‘m getting really tired of reading soft porn ‘scenes‘. I hope the shock value of it softens with authors soon so they can get back to their actual plot lines. 5y

I kind of have mixed feelings about this book. It felt like two books in one, and I definitely preferred the first half over the second. BUT, overall I enjoyed it. It‘s a fun read with some history thrown in 💃🏼📖 #cityofgirls

kspenmoll I felt like it was two books too. 5y
MelKelsey I totally agree! 5y
Jensol77 I agree. The first is defiantly different. After she left NYC I didn‘t think it be interested but I like the turn of events and pace. After all, that‘s life. At least for me...lived it up in my 20s then when I got pregnant with my diary it all came to a screeching halt. 🤣 I‘m just understanding the Angela component. I have an hour left to listen. 5y

The Library Book | Susan Orlean

If you love the library as much as I do, you will love this book. It‘s history with true crime and present day happenings mixed in. I loved Susan Orlean‘s writing. She‘s very descriptive, but she doesn‘t make you feel like you‘re reading a textbook. This was a great nonfiction read ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #thelibrarybook

I just started this book, and I‘m already loving it! It‘s funny and extremely well-written. Plus, it makes me think about things differently, which is the biggest indicator that I‘m reading a great book 😊

Nute My favorite type of reading recommendation is the one that says this book‘s story or information will cause me to think about things differently. Thanks for sharing this review!🙂 5y

I was excited to discover my town has a Little Free Library right down the street from us! There were no books in it that I was interested in this time, but I put my copy of Little Fires Everywhere in for someone else to enjoy it as much as I did 😊 #littlefreelibrary

My July books. Only The Gown and The Last Mrs. Parrish were 5 star reads for me this month. I can‘t say enough good things about The Gown. It was so good on audio. It felt like receiving a warm hug 🤗 Check out my blog for the rest of my ratings and reviews! #julyreads #theshelfishlife
