so-soTHE UNHONEYMOONERS was my first experience with this great writing duo, so my hopes may have been a little too high for this novella sequel giving Olive‘s identical twin her own romantic comedy. The full cast feeling is fun & it‘s certainly a quick listen, but it‘s not as funny or charming as I expected. Brody‘s big secret fell flat for me (& seemed to need more research— though throwing together a HI wedding in a week was equally implausible).
20 years ago or so, I woke in the night with a crushing chest pain. My husband called an ambulance and because we had a young child, couldn't come with me. In the panic, neither of us thought to supply me with a book.
I was fine, but I was there for hours, getting tests and just lying there with nothing. What kept me from going completely mad was my obsession with this book, which I was able to “read“ from memory.
@Laughterhp - Here are your books for #SnowedIn !! I have GOT to stop participating in this challenge because all I do is add books to my own TBR 😂
@PuddleJumper thanks so much for organizing!!!
panThis one was a miss for me. Liked the child characters and not much else - the pacing seemed really off.
bailedBail at 245. I cannot stand a single character and Kelk is trying far too hard to be funny. Awful. I'm having such a bad run of books recently!

This is an old obscure book left on my mother‘s shelves. I think it‘s actually a 1963 printing. Anyway, I‘ve started. The author grew up in Hawaii. Molokai was the leprosy quarantine island in the 19th century.
pickSuper quick audiobook with a cast ensemble. Fun, light, easy audiobook. It‘s a a crossover story from The Unhoneymooners.
pickIt‘s another #SweetValleyChristmas & though the Wakefields have plans for a skiing trip with both sets of grandparents, Jessica & Mandy Miller enter a recipe contest for the Pineapple People & win a trip to Hawaii! Liz would rather ski, & Jessica insults Lila by inviting Mary Wallace instead since Lila‘s already been. Mr. Fowler comes to the rescue & joins them & pays for Lila, Ellen & Janet—along with his new girlfriend, Bambi. Lila hates her!
