The Housemaid Is Watching | Freida McFadden

The beginning was predictable, but the ending wasn‘t. I liked following along with Millie‘s story. It was nice to learn more about her and her interesting history. I knew there was something wrong with Nico, I just didn‘t know what it was. And I didn‘t know Ada was going to have a role in what happened at the end. I also didn‘t think she killed Jonathan; I thought it was someone else who did. I just didn‘t know who. What a surprise! 😲🤯

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was great! I enjoyed the twist at the end. I didn‘t see it coming. Sometimes you just never know with people. Just because someone‘s nice, doesn‘t mean they‘re good. Even the people closest to you will betray you. In a world like this, no one can be trusted.

I love this book. I find that I am very much like Ari, the protagonist. I too don‘t like to be in crowded spaces that‘s noisy. I‘m not autistic, but I understand how difficult it is to be around large, chaotic crowds. Reading a book like this helps me understand autistic people better. I hope to read more like this in the future!

It's a Date (Again) | Jeneva Rose

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was enjoyable. I found it to be funny at times. I definitely chuckled at the funny parts. It was silly to date 3 strangers she didn‘t have any real connections with, but I guess how would she know that, she had lost her memory. The one who turned out to be the liar was a real prick. So glad she learned that later because that led her to make the choice she did. I am satisfied with the ending.

Hopeless | Colleen Hoover

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book deserved 5 ⭐️‘s because the characters were lovable, except of course Sky‘s father. Holder was so respectful of Sky. I loved that. He loved and respected her. Some guys are not like that in the real world (at least in my experiences 😉). So, that‘s refreshing to see. Great book overall!

This book was sooo good. I enjoyed every moment of it. I didn‘t care for the “Fact-Check Rating” comments though. But other than that, the book was enjoyable. I‘m going to miss reading Beckett‘s story. I love a good mystery, and this was it! 👍🏼👍🏼

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was so good. I was originally going to give it 3 stars, but I decided not because it turned out to be awesome. My problem with the book was that the main character did not defend herself when her boss, Nina, treated her badly. Now I understand why Nina treated her that way, and for that, I give the book 5 stars. It deserves 5 stars. I am satisfied with how the story ended. It ended the way it should have.

I read this one before reading the first one in the series. It‘s the second book and it is so good. I love it for it‘s plot twists. I love a good thriller with a plot twist. Not all characters were lovable, but that‘s okay. Made it more interesting. Couldn‘t put this one down. Excited to read the first and third books in the series. ❤️✨

Just finished this one. It. Is. So. Good. The characters are unlikable, but it doesn‘t go unnoticed. This one‘s a page-turner. It‘s not a thriller, but it‘s suspenseful. It keeps you at the edge of your seat. Leaves you wondering if the main character is a villain, or is right for everything that she did. I hope this author writes a sequel to this book. I would be delighted to read it. 👍🏼👍🏼

“I‘ve been out of the dating loop for a while, so if hug is code for something else, I have no idea.
Surely a hug still means a hug.
I can barely work social media, much less keep up with slang. I swear, I‘m the most out-of-touch millennial I know. It‘s as if I skipped right over Gen-X and into Boomer territory. I‘m a Boomer millennial. A boollennial.” ~ Lily

cemsreadingcorner Love this quote because I‘m in the same boat. Can‘t keep up with the new slang. So, therefore, I‘m a Boollennial. 😂😂 (edited) 13mo

I enjoyed this book from start to finish. It was captivating, and I loved the redevelopment of love between Atlas and Lily. It was nice to see them fall in love all over again after going a while without seeing each other. I also loved how the characters dealt with Lily‘s abusive ex-husband. They handled things well. Too many sex scenes though. I don‘t really care for sex scenes in books (or tv shows & movies, for that matter). Still a great book!

I enjoyed this book. I got to see Matthew Perry‘s cute & charming sense of humor. He reminds me so much of Chandler Bing from Friends. I had no idea he had this disease that brought him close to death so many times. You never know what anyone is going through. But I‘m glad his dream came true and that he was able to write this book & have it published so other people who are going through the same thing can see that they are not alone. Bless him!

cemsreadingcorner Bless him for opening up about what he went through. This book will help so many people around the world. And I am so glad that his friends and family are continuing with his legacy to help others with this disease with the Matthew Perry Foundation. It‘s awesome that his goals can be achieved even after he‘s gone. Bless his family! RIP Matty. We love & miss you. Always and forever. 🙏🏼❤️✨ 14mo

Finally finished with this book. It could have been better. All the characters were unlikable and I didn‘t understand Robin‘s significance in this story, at first. Now I understand what her purpose in the story was. The story had a lot of twists, but parts of the book were boring to read. The best parts of the book were the middle and the end. The ending was ruined for me, though, because I read someone‘s spoiler on the internet. 😤😭😭

cemsreadingcorner Other than that, the book was okay. It definitely spooked me, which is great because of what time of year it is. 👍🏼👻🎃 (edited) 14mo

Reading this one at the moment too. I started reading it back in May and I was struggling with it because it‘s Non-Fiction and I don‘t really read Non-Fiction novels. I love the show Friends and I‘m a fan of the actor, that‘s why I borrowed the book and started reading it. It‘s funny so far. I can definitely see that Matthew Perry is a lot like the character he played on Friends. Can he be anymore like him?! 😂😂

The Bodyguard: A Novel | Katherine Center

I‘m reading multiple books at the moment. Currently reading this one. It‘s good so far. I chuckle every now and then. I don‘t love it as much as I loved Things You Save In A Fire by the same author, but the book is okay. It‘s about a woman who works as a bodyguard. She‘s competing with her ex for a spot in the London location. She works as a bodyguard for a famous actor and is pretending to be his girlfriend to help her win the competition.

Finished Social Intercourse by Greg Howard. Now I‘m reading Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney. Great book so far. I‘m 73 pages in and I‘m enjoying every moment of it. It‘s about a couple who‘s having marital issues because the husband has a condition called Prosopagnosia, which means he can‘t recognize faces. So, the couple is struggling. The wife doesn‘t want to feel invisible anymore. They took a weekend trip to Scotland to save the marriage.

Just finished this one. This is a rom-com about a thirty-year-old woman who, after speaking with her grandmother, decided to try dating her exes again for a second-chance romance. She enlisted the help of her roommate, who she was extremely infatuated with. Hilarious book with a great ending! 😊📚❤️

The Three of Us | Ore Agbaje-Williams

I‘m reading this one now and so far it‘s good. We see the perspectives of three different people: the wife, her best friend, and her husband. The story is written a bit different than the way a standard novel is written. Doesn‘t go by chapter, just has parts. It can be a little confusing about who‘s saying what, but it‘s an interesting story. I‘m learning the history of the wife‘s relationship with her bf and husband. 😊📚❤️

Currently reading this one. I‘m enjoying it. It‘s good so far. It switches back and forth between then and now. When it goes back in time, we learn more about the history between the two main characters, Macy and Elliot. They have quite a history. What I love about them is that they love reading as much as I do. That‘s awesome! How often do you find books with characters who love to read? 😊❤️
