March 2025 Book #5
I own like three special editions of this book because they are beautiful and I thought I would love this book. This book has mixed reviews. I‘m in the side of very disappointed team. The writing style is so different of what I use to read by this author, it was like someone else wrote it. The premise is so interesting but I found it extremely boring. Maybe because I was expecting action, intrigue, I don‘t know something else⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) It didn‘t work for me, sorry for the fans☺️2 ⭐️ What I am going to do with all these editions? Don‘t know yet, they are so beautiful and I really like this author but this one was not for me😬For now they still live in my shelf😊

Karisa Agreed. I ended up bailing on it and it had been one of my most anticipated books… Just didn‘t come to life for me. At least the books are pretty! now

March 2025 Book #4
I really enjoyed this book about two families and the matriarchal way to raise their families. So different. During my reading I was mad with Mrs Willoughby and more in the side of Mrs. Fowler. But then you follow each family, their sons and daughters through their lives and you will understand each side of the story. This is really a story about family dynamics and each and changes in each generation. So well written and⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) so well described. Loved it. 4.5⭐️
I‘m late @Leahbergen in my #PersephoneClub2025 and 2024😂But I will read them eventually because I‘m enjoying each book so much. And…I love my Persephone editions.😍

I continue with my late book reviews but this help me to keep track of what I read in 2025 in GR. readers habits😂
I really liked this book. In some way reminded me Eleanor Oliphant is completely Fine. In this case I saw Sally as a woman with a neurocognitive condition (functional diversity) and how hard could be to adapt herself to a typical world. Family secrets, manipulation and even abuse. That‘s how I saw that family behavior (no spoiler)⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) Which means this not an easy book to read. Maybe because I‘m surrounded by my daughter‘s friends including her, where all of them have functional diversity. But the novel ended with hope…which in theses cases could be a long process with the help of professionals and family/friends support but knowing that we will see ups and downs…baby steps 4.5/5 ⭐️ now

I love this series ❤️. This is book 3, and it's getting better and better. There was a long wait at the library, but it was worth it. Great world with magic. #37by37Readathon @MatchlessMarie #Read2025 @DieAReader

The writing was a little too stream of consciousness for me, but the breadth of history was fascinating.

79/80

I do love a bit of Japanese whimsy. Not so much a novel as a collection of short stories about people who need help finding a clinic open visible to people who need it, where the treatment is cats prescribed as emotional support animals ☺️ 🐈‍⬛. As a slave to two cats, I know how much snuggles from a cat can help!

March 2025 Book 2 A re-read for me but I only read the first 2 books. Now I‘m planning to finish the series, obviously, next year 😂It was enjoyable to go back to this world and I could say I enjoyed more the story now than the first time. Looking forward to see the dynamic of this “romance?” triangle. We know things will drastically change in the next books. I have the first edition cover and this new hardcover edition🤦🏽‍♀️book collector⬇️3.8⭐️

I‘m extremely late for my 2025 year books reviews but this is something I‘m doing to keep a track of what I read this year. Yeap, this is for March 2025😳I really must add to my reading goals/challenges for next year to post my book reviews at the end of each month😂

I enjoyed this story, the mystery was interesting but with many convenient coincidences🙄😂Always reminding myself that I‘m reading the series as an adult 3.5 ⭐️ ⬇️

Librarybelle Baby steps are good! 2d
Ruthiella The coincidences in the Nancy Drew books are ridiculous! 😂 2d

This book was as beautiful as its book jacket. The process of nature's cycles and the imperfections of our lives combine for an engaging look at the human condition: mistakes-suffering-forgiveness and the gentle art of always moving forward. Sometimes that means reconciling with the unresolved…

“The measure of us isn‘t in the day-to-day. And it‘s not in our past or our future. It‘s in the fundamental changes we make within ourselves over a lifetime.”

This conclusion to the Jaipur Trilogy was so satisfying. Really enjoyed this series💜
