Finders Keepers 

Thank you, Berkley Romance, for the gifted copy of Finders Keepers {partner} 

 

Genre: Romance 

Format: 🎧📖 

Pub Date:  6.24.2025 

Pages: 400 

Star Rating: ☆☆☆ 

 

I was hoping Finders Keepers would live up to the magic of Adler’s Happy Medium, but sadly, it didn’t grab me. 

 

The romance between Nina and the MMC felt stuck in place, as if they were tangled in their doubts and fears instead of stepping into the future together. I’m not a fan of couples who can’t communicate, and this back-and-forth indecision from Nina kept pulling me out of the story. 

 

The treasure hunt and the flashbacks to the past had potential, but ended up feeling flat and underdeveloped. I waited for a spark or a twist, but it never came. It all just felt so underwhelming and left me disappointed. 

 

Read if you enjoy: 

💛 Second chance romance 

🏘️ Small town 

🫶🏼 Slow burn 

🔥 Minimal spice 

 

If you haven’t already, I highly recommend reading Happy Medium by Sarah Adler! While Finders Keepers wasn’t for me, I’m still looking forward to reading whatever she writes next.
