This book was just okay. It has a cool premise of Hal, a writer who receives an exclusive invitation to go with a movie group to the Cannes Film Fest in the 1950s. There is a second plot, that of the journal that the movie is based on. The journal is actually more interesting, and the love affair between Hal and Stella is rather predictable, and the twist ending is predictable.

While I found a few helpful tips here, bit the majority of this book was Mr. Martin over-explaining. For every lesson there are three unnecessary examples.

This is also very focused on the Catholic Jesuit sect, and not as the title indicates "for everyone"

I've enjoyed this one more than I did the first one. The pace is just really slow and for the best part of the book it feels like nothing is happening.... And then in the last 80 pages I couldn't put the book down. And now I have to read the next one. I NEED TO KNOW!

TheSpineView Well done! 9mo
Linear I loved the original series. I thought I'd be able to get into this one because of how much I liked the original. But... I just couldn't >_ 9mo
Enchanted_Bibliophile @Linear I get it. I also enjoyed the VA and am really struggling with this one. I'm hoping now that I feel I have to continue to see what happens next I'll be more invested 😉 9mo

Oh my gosh, I don‘t know if I can put into words how much I loved this book! I seem to have a witchy theme going recently and was so pleased to see the parallels between this and Hester.

February catchup review 3/
Henry writes great rom-coms! A fun read especially as we are still stuck in the midst of winter (hello 15” of snow yesterday). It felt lovely to escape with Poppy and Alex on their various vacations while outside it was cold, snowy and icy.

Poppy and Alex were a fun duo and I really liked how Henry weaves the threads of their past vacations through what was happening now to bring the story together at the end. 4⭐️

Totally adorable! Sweet and salty, had me worried for a minute but came through strong at the end! Loved these characters and the slow burn they made us wait through. #BookspinBingo #romantsy #Loveathon @TheAromaofBooks #Pantone2023 #AiryBlue #TenderPeach @Clwojick

I finished Primer! This is a really fun YA superhero graphic novel involving foster family, superpower-inducing skin paints, and skeevy government military science projects.

I just fell in love and had my heart broken several times over all in one rush. There‘s nothing unpredictable here, yet somehow watching it unfold was still surprising. It takes on some major cliches, but it does so in a way that is completely without artifice. TJRs considerable mastery at bringing her characters to life is going to leave me with a major book hangover from this one.

Andrew65 Great review. This is on my list for this month. Library hold should come in before the end of the month. 1y

Whenever I love a book as much as I did this one; I don't know how to say exactly why I loved it so much.
To me everything about this book was perfect!
Will think about it and write a proper review when my heart allows.

First 5✨ of 2023
