Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail (Bright Falls #2) by Ashley Herring Blake, narrated by Kristen DeMercurio
The perfect romcom to get the year started Almost a year ago, I read my first book by this author, Delilah Green Doesn’t Care, and I almost immediately knew it would make my end-of-the-year list. I was very much looking forward to the next book, Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail, but for some reason, while the […]
Destination You by JJ Arias
A perfect book Now and again, as a reader, I happen upon a perfect book, one in which the author promises something and then exceeds expectations. Destination You is one of them. Taylor is heading home to Miami for her 10th High School reunion. She is waiting at the New York airport for her flight […]
Observations on the Danger of Female Curiosity by Suzanne Moss
An impressive debut Observations on the Danger of Female Curiosity: Including an account of the unnatural tendencies arising on the over-stimulation of the mind of a lady by Suzanne Moss was everything I hoped it would be. A true historical romance in every sense. Intelligently written with a keen knowledge of the sensibilities of the period. The […]
The Game Changer by Finley Chuva

Unexpected by Jennie Frame, narrated by Nicola Victoria Vincent

The fact that the audiobook version is narrated by Nicola Victoria Vincent, an outstanding British narrator, made it hard to resist. Business owner Dale McGuire’s life is upended when a 10-year-old […]
Payback’s a Witch by Lana Harper, narrated by Jeremy Carlisle Parker
A very enjoyable listen I needed a light audiobook to finish the year and I asked my friend Jude for an audio recommendation. I’ve seen this book some time ago but as I’m not a fan of the fantasy genre, I never checked it. I’m glad I did now because it was very entertaining. Emmy […]

Honey in the Marrow by Emily Waters
A very good debut novel that will give you all the feels You won’t be surprised that what caught my attention about this book is its title… The romance genre is full of commonplace titles possibly to make clear the type of story to expect. It’s ok, I get that not all the books can […]
