Ruby Spencer's Whisky Year
by Rochelle Bilow
Ruby Spencer's Whiskey Year took me by such surprise. I figured I would enjoy it, but I was not expecting to love it as much as I did. Ruby 100% felt so relatable to me as an older millennial and from the first page I was excited to read about Ruby's journey. This was 100% a romance, but so many other things were added to this book as far as Ruby's personal journey and the fate of this adorable small town in Scotland, and Brochan's family drama, but IMO I never felt like those things took away from the romance. Speaking of romance; Brochan is 100% the perfect book boyfriend, especially for fans of the grumpy hero who's never been grumpy for the heroine, and he said the sweetest, most swoony things to Ruby. I adore the friendship the Ruby and Brochan created and their eventual relationship. I loved that they were both older, and really felt like for the most part there was not all of the non/miscommunication issues I see in a lot of romance books (there was one situation, but it wasn't a reoccurring thing). The plot of this one was fun, the audio was fantastic, it was a bit of a slow burn, and did everything I love about romance. I can not think of one thing I didn't like about this book and can not wait to see what the author does next.
