Mr. Miracle by Debbie Macomber

lighthearted slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Diverse cast of characters? No

2.5

This one was just not for me.  It felt very rushed and just...ended.  It's probably part of a series (I should look that up - future self) but I won't be continuing. 

My rating method: 
1⭐ - No. DNF
2⭐ - Finished it but didn't like it
3⭐ - It was fine, but I wouldn't reread it. 
4⭐ - Liked it, maybe a reread in the future. 
5⭐ - Loved it, book god status. 
I will also have .50 for if it could have gone either way in a rating. 

Lucky Leap Day by Ann Marie Walker

hopeful lighthearted

4.5

Audiobook this - the Irish accents make it so much better.  Such a cute story about leap day traditions in Ireland! Now I want to go tour the Irish countryside. 

ASAP by Axie Oh

4.0

I still don't know how I managed to fall into this series (okay I do - book 1 started with X and I needed it for a challenge).  But either way - I'm staying! It's so unnecessarily cute and makes a very nice fluffy read between my heavy hitters.  

reverie by Vivian Varnell

5.0

Now, I MIGHT be biased because the author is a friend, but this was the best book of poetry I ever read.  It's not stuffy and doesn't use big words. I could relate to every single one and teared up at a few.  Get your copy on Amazon today because it's worth it! 

A Demon's Guide to Wooing a Witch by Sarah Hawley

4.0

You have to read book 1 first - these are not standalones.  I will say - book 1 was pretty tame.  Book 2 turned on the spice! Enjoyable storyline and characters! 

Ink, Blood, Sister, Scribe by Emma Törzs

4.0

Heavy world building in my opinion but then a race to the finish. And the world building is absolutely necessary and makes a good story. 

If you like magical realism, no romance, and a bit of adventure - this is for you. 

The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas

4.5

The Woman in Me by Britney Spears

3.0

Britney wasn't an idol or anything for me growing up, but it was interesting to learn more about her life. 

Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas

4.5

Despite calling a major plot point halfway through, it was still a fabulous read. 

Gorgeous Gruesome Faces by Linda Cheng

4.0

Okay Linda - get it! This was honestly a really great read and I strongly recommend it if you like a little horror, some really weird cult situation, and KPop stars.  IT SOUNDS WEIRD but trust me - worth it.
