Following my heart, one book at a time...
Okay so… admittedly, I was a psych-thriller addict this year and completely indulged my cravings. I succumbed to my needs for subtle creep-fests with obsessive stalkers and unreliable narrators that would keep throwing me off track.
But no worries, I read (and LOVED) plenty of romance too! In fact, there are plenty of love stories on this list (some, admittedly… a little creepy 😉 Tee hee!!) and I must say that I had a great and memorable reading year! I consider each of these must reads.
LESLIE’S LIST!!!!!! I always call her my picky book-bud and I love that about her, ’cause I know what she loved, I’ll likely love too. She’s a contemporary romance lover at heart!
And she’s fallen in love with audiobooks… so yay me, since I’m an audiobook newbie but I think this is my year! Leslie, I’m gonna need your guidance. 😉
But first, fun and random tidbit Leslie M highlights from 2019:
I def DO need something different. Same old, same old is driving me bonkers. That’s why I recently enjoyed A Five Minute Life and Under the Northern Lights. Those were unique. Trying “new” genres (in books, movies or tv) is so hard for me…but I am going to try to expand my horizons. 😉
HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! 35 books and counting on today’s Friday Finds list!! 😀 I’ll keep adding as we find more. 😉
P.S. Did you miss my latest book review? ➔ 4.5 STARS for Colleen Hoover’s “Regretting You”. I even listened to the audiobook for some parts!!!
And speaking of audiobooks, Amazon just sent me an email letting me know that they’ve started they’re Daily Deal Rewind Sale for audible members (today and for the next few days – hundreds of HUGE audiobooks)!! I’ll go through the list and add them below into the Audiobook Finds section. 😀
OH WOW!! 🤩 This one stole my heart. Yep! Still has that signature Colleen Hoover storytelling by way of her beautiful words and introspection and her relatable characters with real life issues. It’s why we love her so.
Kim: Regretting You, it was very relatable which I think is one of Coho’s great talents. She is always a sure thing for me.
But also signature Colleen ’cause it had quite the twist that, yet again – I didn’t see coming until it slapped me right on the face! And it does so early on, too, so you get to live it as they do.
And here’s Cassandra’s second question on a book that she’s looking for (and this one rings a HUGE bell for me. In fact, I think it’s been a reader question on here before). I’m going to backtrack and try to find it, in the meantime.
She asks:
The second: I can’t remember whether this was the last book in a series.
The heroine gets amnesia and the hero who she was in a relationship with but broke up with, brings her back to his apartment.
He left her because she told him she was pregnant and he thought she was cheating because he couldn’t have children because he has cancer.
