The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth
4.0
I really enjoyed this. I loooove dual POV and dual timelines so it was def my kind of book. Characters were pretty interesting!
Potions, Poisons, and Peril: A Witchy Paranormal Cozy Mystery by Shéa MacLeod
3.25
I am honestly inflating the rating a bit for it being (I assume) self published. Lots of typos like an insane amount. But the story was fun. I also gave it an extra .25 bc it let me know I could enjoy cozy mysteries!
Mad Honey by Jennifer Finney Boylan, Jodi Picoult
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
4.0
Honestly my rating for this book kept changing throughout. First of all: they said "we came up here to do bongs." I'm sorry? Come again? Some things were too on the nose for my preferences, but given the subject matter I appreciated the care and detail. I feel like this truly could have opened several people's perspectives who may not have had the inclination to explore some things without this book. Idk how to word without spoiling or maybe it wasn't a spoiler I don't really read the descriptions of books sometimes if I've seen people I know read them.

America's Next Reality Star by Laura Heffernan
3.5
I mean... it wasn't really the best writing but it was a fun story. I obviously am a fan of reality TV and this was mostly following the show with the romance as more background so I really enjoyed that aspect. Fun silly quick read!
In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren
3.0
It was fine. I enjoyed the writing much more than the story. It was kinda missing something to me that I can't put my finger on
And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman

The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix
2.5
This guy is a weirdo. Sorry 🤷🏼♀️ and not in a wow this is really disturbing and fucked up kind of way just in the normal way a male is. Gave it .5 extra stars bc SHE DUMPED HIM!!!!! thank god. All the men sucked but Carter can die fr. I also will admit that I probably rated this one lower because I tried to listen to how to sell a haunted house and found it literally just so awful so it really sullied my opinion of the author in general so I potentially could have rated this higher without that influence
How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix
Did not finish book. Stopped at 52%.

Characters were both unlikable and unrealistic. I really tried to power through but I just couldn't this was not good lol
