Iβve not read Jennifer Colgan yet so am hopeful Iβll enjoy it. The synopsis sounded really good to me. Thanks so much for this list! Iβve been searching all over for holiday reads so this is perfect! I donβt usually read them, but am so in the mood lately.
Ok, and am really looking forward to Rachel Van Dykenβs My Summer in Seoul releasing December 14.
And!! Have you seen Taylor Swiftβs like, 13min music video, All Too Well? I donβt really watch music videos a whole lot, but I went for it last night bc I love the actors and ooooh it was good. I went down a little rabbit hole after watching, lol!
I sure did watch it!! HOLY MOLY!! I’ve also got Rachel Van Dyken’s in the preorder.
I’m pretty excited that the Rochester Trilogy by Skye Warren is complete! I’ve been anxious to read it! A nanny and a brooding billionaire? Yes, please!
I just started Black Sunshine by Karina Halle. I’m only about 20 pages in, but so far so good! I’m still pretty busy finishing house projects before Thanksgiving so my reading time is limited for the next few days. I just cleaned out my pantry last night after a trip to Costco. That seems to be the catch all place for a LOT of stuff. I do love how it looks afterwards though π
I’m pretty anxious for Thanksgiving. I think it will be the first one I have with my sister (and we both love to cook!!)
Iβve had Dirty Letters by Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland in my audible library forever and finally listened to it the other dayβ¦.I couldnβt stop smiling and laughing out loud.
I also just read Just a Dream by Amanda Faye (itβs currently free -at least on Amazon) and it was one of my top reads for the year. It had that perfect feel for me. It completely sucked me in. The best way to describe it would be it had an Elizabeth OβRoark vibe. Which leads me to my other top read so farβ¦A Deal With the Devil by Elizabeth OβRoark. Read it. Itβs so good! I know Iβve seen it come up on here, but itβs so good itβs worth mentioning again.
Iβve read 2 of Willa Nashβs Christmas books and I really enjoyed both of them. Theyβre novellas but theyβre hearty – so you get a good story. Quick reads, but definitely satisfying.
YAY ASHLEY!! I’m adding these to tomorrow’s list! π
