Where You're Planted
by Melanie Sweeney
This book is SO GOOD!! I fell in LOVE with Take Me Home when I read it last year, and honestly I’ve been thinking about it ever since. Hazel and Ash have such a special place in my heart! And Tansy and Jack are right next to them!!! This was everything I was hoping for and MORE! I’ve had the arc for a little bit, but Jessica Joyce mentioned it in her newsletter and if there’s one thing about me it’s that I WILL be taking a recommendation from her! and as ALWAYS she was right. Jack is so soft and sweet and he is GRUMPY but there is so much going on behind the scenes and Melanie really wrote him SO WELL!
JACK AND TANSY! The perfect grumpy/sunshine duo!! With their perfect little sidekick Briar!! I loved everything about all three of their stories! They were so complex and thought out and seeing everything unravel was so beautiful. I loved how Tansy was teaching Briar that they were independent women!!! Even if sometimes it was to their detriment, but the sentiment IS important! And Jack is the SOFTEST MAN ALIVE!! And seeing him fit so seamlessly into Tansy and Briar’s lives??
And not to mention the tension?? The BANTER! The kind of enemies to lovers banter was SO GOOD! From the start Jack and Tansy have such good chemistry!!! And the fact that they really could go full relationship mode for a week and then be done?? CRACKS ME UP! I love them deeply and honestly I’m going to have to read this one again!!
not only is this book beautiful, it also showcases how important libraries are! Which is so important and so prevalent. Throughout the book Tansy is fighting for her library and she never stops!! She helped build a community and she wants to continue especially after the hurricane! By the end, seeing everyone also rallying for the library warms my heart and I hope we can all do the same for our libraries!!!
Thanks to Putnam for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!!
