Began the month with a strong start, but the last few reads have been a little disappointing. We'll see what April and BookSpin brings 😁
Quite possibly the most three-star book I‘ve ever read. 😅
Too many small details, which I normally don‘t mind, but it doesn‘t feel like they add anything (e.g. “I dropped the keys into the bowl on the table”; “I slid the bin from the shelf and lowered it to the ground”; “I pulled onto the shoulder…sliding the gear into park”; “I opened the door, getting out of the truck”, “I reached out…I pushed it open…My eyes widened,” etc).👇🏻
Heartwarming stories aren‘t normally my jam but toss them in with time travel, and a coffee shop in Japan and I‘m in! I‘m not 100% sure I‘ll keep going with the others in the series but I have enjoyed the first two books.
Darby returns to his small home town after losing his job. When he stumbles into the local bookstore & finds his younger self, he‘s forced to confront old choices & who he‘s become now.
I liked this liminal bookstore where Darby interacts w/ himself before he‘s come to terms w/ his identity, & “what would you tell your younger self”, but almost nothing else happens in this book.😅 Good characters, interesting relationships, but so slow.🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
I very much enjoyed this one. It‘s very different to the author‘s Ruth Galloway Mysteries. If you enjoy mysteries and time travel stories, you‘ll love The Frozen People. Quite clever with some interesting characters and a humorous vibe. I‘m looking forward to book two!
Joe aspires to be a poet, but has yet to write a poem he truly likes. When he meets Esi his luck is about to turn. Esi is a time-traveller from the future. She jumped on an opportunity to see the famous poet Joseph Greene during his lifetime to make changes to her own past. But to be able to make those changes to her past, she has to help Joe fall in love with his muse Diana.
