pickI really liked this book and the atmosphere of the renaissance faire. The romance was cute, the characters storyline was nicely developed. You liked the side characters as well (set up for book 2). The sexy scene was more detailed and explicit than I was expecting based on the tone of the book, so be ready for that. Also, the lead male character who was uptight playing a sexy pirate at the faire was fun! Already put on hold the next in the series.
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.17-18: naturally the doubts creep in. She really needs to take her own advice and give the guy a chance. But she also deserves to be romanced. She‘s never had that and it will feel nice. But will Simon woo her as himself or will he be more confident in his pirate persona?
#LittensLoveRomance Emily is given a well-needed nudge by a fortune cookie and Mitch (of all people!) and she goes to straighten things out with Simon. Thank goodness for that. See what talking to each other gets you, folks? But I worry that they both still have a lot of insecurities which may weigh them down in the chapters to come.
pickThis was a cute fall romance!
The set up is not the greatest and is the weakest part of the book. The party at the pumpkin farm and fixing up the barn premise didn‘t quite work. But since this is a romance I just rolled with it. The book is also a bit of a slow burn.
The two leads were cute together. I loved seeing their relationship slowly develop.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.13-14: it seems as though Emily is finally ready to talk - with her sister, but maybe with Simon too. That is the only way she‘ll get things sorted with Simon. Because he is definitely not helping. Boy‘s got issues - totally understandable ones - but issues nonetheless with Mitch and his brother. I think Emily needs to be brave and take charge and go after what she wants, in both love and life. ⬇️
Should probably be drinking whiskey with this but it‘s Sunday night so a sparkling water will do. The rain has come 🎉🎉🎉 #wesureneededthis 👵🏻 #hyggehourreadathon is a go
pickThis is the 2nd Emily Henry book I‘ve read (the other being Book Lovers). I really loved this one! I loved how Daphne was a children‘s librarian & the set up of the novel. I really respected her as a character. I‘m new to the romance genre & this one was highly recommended & I‘m glad I read it! I would love 2 see this adapted to film or tv! I appreciated the connection Daphne had with her mom & the struggles she had with her dad. I could relate.
pickI couldn't get enough of this book! It was so good and shows how some relationships turn into a stale mate and it takes 2 to realize that a change is needed so everyone finds their happiness and love 💜
