Welcome to Litsy!

Jeanie, who has recently taken over her Aunt's cafe and Logan, the quiet, cute local resident who the entire town looks out for after losing his parents .A bit of a cosy mystery element in that we were trying to discover who was trying to sabotage Jeanie and her cafe.This added a fun engaging element also, but primarily it as a slow burn romance that was an absolute delight to read. Lovable characters, living in an adorable town, I. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It was corny. The writing wasn't the best. But it was a fun little story.

My hygge hour is a little early because i cannot keep my eyes open. Super cozy book and super cozy night. I hope you are all having a cozy time as well.

Another “just fine“ read. Small-town autumn-vibes insta-love, “just talk to each other“ romance. I'm so confused by all the people who complained that this was way too spicy - there's maybe two two brief vanilla sex scenes?

Anyway. #Wreath #ISpyBingo #ISpy @TheAromaOfBooks

These are my kind of autumn days!

This was such a cute fall romance!

So many people have read this book, so when I saw it TJ Maxx (for a great price) I knew it was time to give it a shot. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

This book was loaded with fall vibes! It gave me all the autumn feels while reading it.

The romance was super sweet but basic.

I really liked reading this book. I have been seeing it everywhere. Loved the characters. I will most likely continue the series. It has some spice in it. I rated the book a 3 out of 5 stars.

⭐️⭐️⭐️

I always think I want to try a pumpkin spice latte in the fall, but I never end up enjoying it as much as I had hoped. This book is kind of like that! Sometimes you‘re in the mood for something seasonal and cozy, even if it doesn‘t end up being your favorite.

Predictable, but cozy and cute. Just what I needed. I can‘t wait to read the others. Definitely Gilmore Girl vibes (LOVE) Lorelei and Luke for sure; I picture Logan in his flannel with a backwards hat. Another book cleared from the TBR. #HauntedShelf #RestlessSpirits

My hand-written #HauntedShelf notes because I always forget there is a tracker 🤣 also, these events always make me feel like I‘m crushing it and then my point count seems so weak haha I did more word searches, but I can‘t find where I put them or remember if I finished, so I‘ll have to count them for next time. 5 books off of the TBR! #RestlessSpirits

I have been trying to branch out lately and read things outside of my comfort zone. I absolutely loved it. Is this a hard-hitting amazing book that is going to knock you off your feet? No. But it did have all of the fall vibes and got me right into the fall mood. This book felt like a Hallmark movie that you read instead of watch. It is a small town cozy read and had me feeling all of the vibes. Perfect book to get into the fall season! 4.5/5

I‘ve been seeing a lot of praise for the Dream Harbor series over the past year, and I decided to finally dive in and see what all the fuss was about. I enjoy cozy mysteries, but I‘ve never read a cozy romance mystery. I found this one to be okay, but not exceptional. I enjoyed the setting of the small town, the autumnal atmosphere, and the characters.

Randomly picked this up on hoopla. Jeanie‘s aunt gifts her a coffee shop. Jeanie moves from Boston to a small town to run it after she found her boss dead on his desk. She figures out how to make friends, run a coffee shop and most likely fall in love. Grumpy sunshine romance.

I did not think I'd love this book as much as I do. It's just perfect for day one of the first -ber month of the season. I'm ready for crunchy leaves, chunky sweaters, and pumpkin everything. 🍂

Look what I found at Target!!! 🧡🧡🧡

I read the Christmas one previously, so I had some idea of how I would find this.

It is hallmarky, trope packed fun.
Obviously it depends what you are looking for in a read, but sometimes you need a light fluffy palette cleanser, where you know despite at least one misunderstanding, there will be a happy ending. This delivers that! Plus with all these heatwaves, I can‘t wait for cosy autumn times 🤣

I listened to this as an audiobook, and for me it was just ok.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was such a cute story. The fluff that palate cleansers are made of. A spicy Hallmark-esque story. New girl moves from the city to a small town to run her aunt's cafe and meets sexy farmer, romance ensues.

Good. Nice cosy romantic story. Full of lovely characters and I can't wait to read the rest of this series.

Now I am vehemently NOT a romance Girly, but I wanted a light and fluffy audiobook to listen to and this book/series is that.

I enjoyed this one and currently listening to the audiobook for the 2nd one.

Read for reading challenges

4/5

It was a cozy read. Something cute to pass the time. I‘ve been wanting to read this series for a while. I did enjoy it but the main couple were a tad bit annoying.

Wow! That was spicy! I thought it was going to be a cute little romance! Of course, to me, who doesn't read very many romances, and if I do, it's usually an Amish one. Anything with sex in it is spicy to me😂 It was good, but the spicy stuff didn't add anything to it for me. I'm not sure if I will continue the series.

There was a lot of hype around this book so I checked it out. It was a cute romance set in a small town. I didn‘t think it was anything super special but it kept me engaged enough to read it in a day or so. It was definitely spicier than I thought it was going to be. I might check out more in the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I got the second book in this series for Chriztmas, so of course I had to get the first one before I could read the second. I'd been avoiding it because I am not a fan of pumpkin spice anything. But this was cute. Non-consequential, but cute. Nice easy read to start the year. #03-2025

She was figuring out her style for the series in this first one but it worked really well. A little trope-y but pas de trop.

Side note: my friend made me four of these mugs with different designs on them. They‘re all the perfect size! One of them can hold half a pot of tea and that‘s ✨perfect✨

This was a cute enough romance. I feel like I didn‘t get to know the characters well enough, especially the FMC Jeanie, to really but into their supposed back stories and root for them, though. I did like the town as the third main character, which was clever, and the supporting cast was strong and engaging. Good enough that I‘ll read the next one, anyway.

This one is definitely a romance and not a cozy mystery like i initially thought. I really enjoyed the story though and it was a perfect light read for fall. I can‘t wait to start the next one since its about Hazel and Noah!

⭐️⭐️⭐️3/5

We‘ve been up north in MI with no cell service since Thursday night so these are all coming at ya! This was such a fun read. Low to no drama, I would term it a cozy romance. Totally get the hype.

GEEZ! At LAST!!
After 199 pages we finally get a little bit of action. I hate when slowburns take SO long. C‘mon! It was a good scene. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Clean & sweet. Not too crazy or overboard. Just nice. I would rate the smut in this book so far as a 🌶️🌶️.

Does it gets better than this? Or was that bit the best part?

I returned all my library books whether they were due or not so i could start reading the books i have at home! Ive been dying to start this one so now i can!

It was OK, but nothing special

Most basic. Most fun. Moving on to #2…one last stop before I start Christmas🧡☕️🍂

Ok.. I shockingly flew through this book! No character development, but fun characters. It was funny and easy to read. I‘ll read the rest of them! 😙

I‘m jumping on this bandwagon.. I hope it‘s enjoyable 🤞🏻 😝😆 !

Hello #skeletoncrew! Sorry I‘ve been MIA on Litsy this month! My mom had a pretty major health scare (she‘s fine!) which sucked up all my energy so I haven‘t been posting. But I‘ve been reading which has been the only thing keeping me from completely losing it honestly lol.

Cute, cozy and very easy to fly through. I also thought it was really good for this time of year

This was so a cover buy. It screams autumn 🍂

I had no idea that this was the first in the Dream Harbor series. Jeanie has moved from the city to get a new start, and has taken over her aunt‘s cafe. Weird things start to happen and Logan volunteers to help her find out what it is.

The author biography compares Dream Harbor to Stars Hollow, and I see that. Those Stars Hollow town meetings are legendary and I‘m sure these will be too.
