2️⃣4️⃣ Drinking a pumpkin spice latte and reading this on my kindle 🍁 🎃 As a Gilmore Girls fan I‘m sad to say that I don‘t know what all the fuss was about with this book. I didn‘t really buy the chemistry between these 2 and nothing really happened, but a light and inoffensive read all the same. I read that book 2 is better, so I gave it a go and agree it far exceeds this one.
2️⃣3️⃣ Saturday night with Mai Tai tinnies 😂and a book 🎊 Interesting to read a book from a male‘s perspective for a change! Not my favourite by Dolly Alderton but still I would recommend this to a friend and have already passed it on.
2️⃣2️⃣ Perfect Saturday. Loved this book, was really attached to the characters and the ending was moving.
2️⃣1️⃣ 2nd book of this series. I preferred the characters in this one, and although it was very similar to the first in the series, it was a nice read and reminded me a lot of a Hallmark movie plot. Easy reading and would recommend.
2️⃣0️⃣ I‘m on a cowboy roll now 😂 hopefully this one will remind me of my trip to Nashville last year!
1️⃣9️⃣ An entertaining easy read. I saw this on my kindle store and was drawn to the cover. I really wanna marry a cowboy now 😂
pick1️⃣8️⃣ one of the best books I‘ve read this year, now I want to visit Brazil! This is a series and I‘ve already started book 2.
1️⃣7️⃣ Missing reading by the pool 😫😫 another great one from TJR, I‘ve read all her books now so I hope she‘s got sone new ones on the way!
1️⃣6️⃣ holiday reading…a good poolside read, this was a recommendation from a friend and I know these are a series so I would read more at some point.
1️⃣5️⃣ Found this a bit contrived to be honest, the story was entertaining enough but I don‘t think I‘d be rushing to read another by this author.
1️⃣4️⃣ Reading outside for the first time this year ☀️ 📕 I made really slow progress through this one, the ending did wrap things up nicely but can‘t say I loved this book.
1️⃣3️⃣ chilled mornings on annual leave, I went to a Lisa Jewellery event earlier this year and heard her talk about this book, hooked on it already! - Loved this all the way though but felt like the ending let it down a little. Still a great read but I was expecting more, perhaps I am becoming immune to psychological thrillers 😂
1️⃣2️⃣ I miss reading this already, I loved it!
1️⃣1️⃣ Oh wow I loved this one, go Daphne! Another great Reese‘s Book Club pick, they never fail me.
🔟 Struggled to get through this as I felt it was quite slow and I wasn‘t really that bonded to any of the characters! I had visited the Titanic Museum in Pigeon Forge and had read about the Titanic Orphans there, an incredible story really but I felt it took a lonnnng time to get to it.
9️⃣ Saturday morning set up 📖 🐶 ☕️ I‘m going to see Lisa speak next week and I am so excited because I love her books! A hundred pages into this one and gripped.
8️⃣ Another fave from TJR. I only have one more of her novels to read, she needs to write some more!!
7️⃣ Read this during some travel, dealt with some heavy issues but also light hearted and heart warming in places. I would read more by Dawn.
6️⃣ ooh this was quite creepy! I didn‘t figure out the ‘whodunnit‘ until right before it was revealed! An entertaining read.
5️⃣ My favourite musician as a teenager (and probably still now). I‘ve read a lot of what has been written about him over the years, so I‘m interested to read the story of his life told by him (via a ghost writer)
4️⃣I haven‘t read anything by Jojo Moyes in years, looking forward to this! - There was a lot going on in this book. I liked the characters and the story, and I was rooting for the librarians. My only complaint - I felt it was a bit long winded. It also got me back into historical fiction, so I‘m excited to read more in this genre.
3️⃣ I saw this was recommended on Goodreads so giving it a go. Update - A good mystery and I liked Molly, but I felt the ending was a bit of a let down, and didn‘t live up to the other twists in the story. I would still read more by this author though.
2️⃣ Finished this one in a couple of days, I can‘t believe what Britney‘s family did to her. Loved that we got a sense of her sense of humour. To start with I was a bit on the fence about this book, the style wasn‘t what I expected. But actually, having raced through it, I would recommend this book to my friends.
1️⃣ first of 2024, a Christmas gift from my mum, picked because we had an amazing trip to Memphis in 2023 🩶 Loved these characters - strong women and a great story.
Is there anything Dolly can‘t do?! I started reading this one when I was on a road trip in the US, including a visit to Nashville 🤠 Picking it back up to finish it now and wishing I was back there, just minus the creepy stalker!
My second time trying this one, just lost momentum the last time I tried to read it. I loved Next Year in Havana, so I‘m sure I‘ll enjoy this too.
Another TJR for me next! #carriesotoisback #taylorjenkinsreid. Ok, every time I read another of TJR‘s I think ‘this is my favourite.‘ I thought Carrie was such a strong character, didn‘t want this book to end!
I lovvvve TJR so sure I will enjoy this one, although not sure anything can compare to Malibu Rising or Evelyn Hugo. This one made me cry, emotional read but with an uplifting end.
Hardly been reading recently, trying to get back into it with this one! Enjoyed this one, but did have to google the ending as wasn‘t really sure how to take it, maybe I‘m just being dim or lacking imagination, but I do prefer endings to be unambiguous rather than open to interpretation. Will read more from Celeste though.
4️⃣ I‘ve always meant to read this and never have, my goal is to read more of ‘the classics‘ this year, so this is the first one of those #thegreatgatsby #fscottfitzgerald #kindleread
3️⃣ I just love every one of Taylor Jenkins Reid‘s books, love this family and their story #taylorjenkinsreid #kindle #maliburising
2️⃣ Up during the night with a sick doggie so starting my second read of the year, heard very mixed reviews on this one but hoping I enjoy it! #paperpalace #mirandacowleyheller Took me a while to get through this one and the ending was an anti climax for me.
1️⃣ Perfect holiday situation - book, dog, coffee ❤️
9️⃣ First book of the holiday #thedukeandi #juliaquinn #kindlereads
8️⃣ Looking forward to this one, I loved Next Year in Havana, this novel focuses on another member of the Perez family #chanelcleeton #whenweleftcuba
7️⃣ I loved Daisy Jones and Evelyn Hugo, both by TJR, so far this one doesn‘t feel as dramatic as Evelyn Hugo but I do care about the main character and I am interested to see how things turn out. Once again, can‘t put it down, which seems to be a theme with TJR‘s books #taylorjenkinsreid #maybeinanotherlife #kindleread
5️⃣ Starting covid isolation today so will be on the sofa lots 📚 I began reading this last year but got distracted, about 100 pages in now and intrigued to see how this unfolds! #wewereneverhere #andreabartz
Whizzed through this in 2 days - sinister in places and totally captivating!
so-so1️⃣ & 2️⃣ - My first two reads of 2022, some light relief getting me through a stressful January at work. I really enjoy the Chesapeake series, the novels are pretty heartwarming and easy to read, I enjoyed Driftwood more than Moonlight Cove, think I might have read too many of these in the past year so probably need a break, found Moonlight a bit cheesy!
3️⃣ Loved Daisy Jones and enjoying this so far, excited to see what scandal will unfold! #taylorjenkinsreid #thesevenhusbandsofevelynhugo
Loved this one, the twist shocked me! Just ordered another one from this author.
A Reese‘s book club book so I have high hopes, looking forward to learning a bit more about the Cuban revolution too! I tend to pick books that are set in World War Two as I‘m so familiar with that period of history, so lots to learn here.
#nextyearinhavana #chanelcleeton
Didn‘t want to put this down. Great couple twists I did not see coming!
Quiet Sunday, back with the O‘Brien family. #harborlights #sherrylwoods
Read this one in two days, a heartwarming story - as I‘ve come to expect from the Chesapeake series!
About a hundred pages into this one and hooked. Took a bit of time to get used to the style but desperate to find out the band‘s story 🎵 🔮 #daisyjonesandthesix #taylorjenkinsreid
I loved this book, another top recommendation from Reese‘s book club! Could we have a sequel, please?! I didn‘t really want this to end and I‘d like more detail on Daisy‘s later life.
A feel good book, with likeable characters. A great holiday read 🏖 Now I want to be a florist! #chesapeakeshores #sherrylwoods #flowersonmain
