The third book in the Lovelight series and this book is basically slow porn, ugh. I‘m not a fan of smut. The first book was really good, the second book was meh, this is smut. I‘m not reading the fourth. Book #33 in 2024

I wasn't really aware of this series, but I've enjoyed Cassandra Clare previously and I know Holly Black is a similar author so I figured I'd give it a shot. It's definitely intriguing, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. #33-2023
Book #33
3.5/5
Decent book - offers a different perspective on relationships, in the context of African-American characters in the US. My complaint would be the pacing of the storyline. There were a lot of places that felt very slow, and it didn't have a very good flow.

Even though I didn't realize that this is the third book of a series. I still enjoyed listening to this one
This didn‘t keep my attention and reminded me a bit of Olive Kitteridge. It was quite depressing and the writing was boring, I mean the writing is decent but the subject was drab and boring. Eleanor is the victim of extensive child abuse that has left her as a strange, naive adult. But, here‘s the thing, this book is painted in a different light but it‘s about a woman who had a very f*cked up childhood. Book #33 in 2033 pic of my reading buddy.
#PersephoneClub2023 (February) When at the beginning of this novel, I saw Mrs. Knapp behavior, I couldn‘t stand her, a controller OCD mother-woman. But then, behind her behavior I saw a frustrated, depressed woman repressed for not fulfilled her goals in life, but “obliged” to follow “society stereotypes mother-woman roles”. What a change in the dynamic of this family after Lester accident. The roles in each member will change, for good⬇️
23 #33 This little series has become my go-to cozy mystery for this year when I‘m in the mood.
Finished it! I gave it 3.5 stars. Yes, it was different from other cozy mysteries, but not really my cup of tea. Kind of depressing actually. Lovely purple cover though. #33 #BookSpin 2 #BFC23 #MarchMadness #20in4 #ReadySetRead #Foodie2023
