I thought there was some good information and advice in here although there were times I felt it slightly redundant or long. Still, worth a read for anyone who feels they have perfectionist tendencies.

I enjoyed this second book so much more than the first. In this one, we follow Diana after her separation from her husband, Oliver and how they are working through this new family dynamic. Diana also reconnects with a past love…Could the second time be the charm?

Loved this one. Can‘t wait to read the third installment!

By the sea, there is a restaurant. A restaurant where you can say a final goodbye to a lost loved one, through a remembrance meal.

This style of Japanese fabulism, examining the interconnected nature of food, family, memory, & grief is fast becoming a favorite. Connected short stories, plus recipes, show different griefs & the closure we need. I would have read 600 more pages of this. ❤️ & I want to cook something of my grandma‘s now.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

ARC by Netgalley. An amazing book! Beautiful, well crafted and it was so hard to put it down! Would have read it in one sitting if I had had the time. Almost a hard pick but some things weren't explained well at the end (I don't want to give any spoilers away). BUT I'm hoping the author will fix this and will look forward to reading the final book after publication.

DebinHawaii @Librarybelle I just have to get it transferred from another branch & that takes longer. It‘s just weird that they don‘t have all of them in a branch but I guess they go missing & they don‘t replace them or something. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 4d
Librarybelle That could very well be…when I worked in public libraries, that would be the reason. At least you can get it! 4d
mom2bugnbee Those chickens! ♥️ 4d
Sace @DebinHawaii I have the same issue with The No 1 Ladies Detective series. All the books in the series are scattered among different branches. 22h

The Haunting Between Us | Paul Michael Winters

I was underwhelmed by this book, however, the ending I found very distasteful. It turned the book from a meh to a solid no.

The book suffers from tonal whiplash and not knowing who its audience is. Some chapters are teenage cutesy romance and others are ghost haunting mystery.

⬇️

PuddleJumper The characters are 16 though read a lot younger which is why it was super jarring when they had sex and it didn't even fade to black.

I would have assumed this was aimed at the younger end of YA because the characters read more like 13/14 and the writing was quite simplistic.

PuddleJumper Everything was wrapped up too quickly at the end and it felt cheap.

Thanks to #Netgalley and the publisher for the #ARC

Kept me guessing the whole time! The suspense was kept high and I thought three POVs worked really well.

I figured out part of it pretty quickly, but was stumped by the rest. Enjoyed the twisty ending even if a little unbelievable.

Absolutely delightful! Kicking your heels, clapping your hands fun 🤩 A steamy STEM romance with layer characters who are kind and thoughtful with each other. I‘ll definitely read more from this author! #ARC #netgalleygroup @AllDebooks #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
