Basically, since the beginning of the pandemic, I don't often seek out books that aren't going to be super light, super fun and something easy to breeze through. Still, when I read about Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin (author of The Storied Like of A.J. Firky, which I have not read yet, but of which … Continue reading Book Review: Tomorrow, And Tomorrow, And Tomorrow

Book Review: The Hotel Nantucket
Summer's basically in full swing, which means it's time to bring on the beach reads—and what a better way than with a book that takes place at a hotel that is specifically for people who want to hit the beach for the summer on Nantucket. The Hotel Nantucket is written by Nantucket's queen bee, Elin … Continue reading Book Review: The Hotel Nantucket
Book Review: The Treehouse on Dog River Road
There's something great about going into a book with no plot details and seeing where it takes you. The publicist reached out to me about this one, comparing it to My Oxford Year and Head Over Heels, both books that I absolutely loved, so I agreed to read it without even reading the synopsis. The … Continue reading Book Review: The Treehouse on Dog River Road
Book Review: A Lady for a Duke
Historical romance is not one of my favourite genres to read. I like a good historical fiction from time to time, sure (generally centered around the world wars) but I don't read a lot of mass-market romances because they aren't usually my thing. Despite this, when I read what Alexis Hall, writer of one of … Continue reading Book Review: A Lady for a Duke
Book Review: Every Summer After
I'd been trying to get my hands on a copy of Every Summer After since the moment I saw it become available on NetGalley. Though I don't know the author, Carley Fortune, personally, we actually both worked at the same company at the same time and I would see her in the kitchenette from time … Continue reading Book Review: Every Summer After
Book Review: The Wedding Season
I can't even remember the last time I went to a wedding—that's how far "wedding season" is in the rearview mirror for me, but that doesn't mean I don't love reading about them! When I came across The Wedding Season by Katy Birchall (in stores May 3, just in time for the wedding ramp up), … Continue reading Book Review: The Wedding Season
Book Review: Head Over Heels
I'm playing catch-up a bit on books that I read while I was on maternity leave in 2020 that I wrote a quick review for in Goodreads but didn't have a chance to put on the blog. First up is Head Over Heels by Hannah Orenstein and though I don't remember every detail at this … Continue reading Book Review: Head Over Heels
Book Review: As Seen on TV
I never really considered small-town love stories to be their own genre, but when As Seen on TV by Meredith Schorr (in stores June 7) came my way, it definitely made a case for it that I couldn't deny. Hallmark movies, after all, are money-making vehicles that are produced year-round (not just around the holidays!) … Continue reading Book Review: As Seen on TV
Book Review: Home Field Advantage
I reviewed Dahlia Adler's Cool For The Summer last year—just before I went on my impromptu hiatus—and it was such a joy to read that when I saw Home Field Advantage on NetGalley (coming out June 7), I knew I had to try to get my hands on a copy. Adler's writing is fun and … Continue reading Book Review: Home Field Advantage
Book Review: A Rip Through Time
I don't read a lot of mystery or detective stories—and after I read a good one I'm always wondering why that is because I generally enjoy them. The same goes for historical fiction. When I came across the description for A Rip Through Time (actually, let's face it, it was actually the beautiful cover that … Continue reading Book Review: A Rip Through Time
