I loved the show & hearing the backstory as well as how the cast talks about the characters, the stories & each other only made me love it more.

The Christmas Sisters | Sarah Morgan
post image
Pickpick

This one was carried over from last year on both my #readyourebooks & #Roll100 lists.
I‘m glad I didn‘t get to it in December. It was such a great read & really hit the spot right now.
Morgan takes the time to develop her characters & it gets you invested in them & the various storylines. All this while pacing it so the book never drags. She‘s an auto read author for me now.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! This is the first book by this author I read and I really loved it. Now I try to read her new Christmas book every year!! 2d

I enjoyed reading this with the #LittensLoveRomance group. I liked the setting & the characters. I would have liked a more in depth look at Callum but overall it was a fun, relaxing read.

This was a good mystery with several twists. An 8 year old boy goes missing & this one had me suspecting several characters. Well written even if it did drag a bit in places.

I listened to this one while I‘m also reading an ARC by Center. They are hitting the reading spot for me right now. As it says in the book, you know where the book is going but it‘s how you get there that‘s all the fun. This had several scenes where I laughed out loud. Very entertaining.

Woodrose Mountain | RaeAnne Thayne

Grief & pain led Evie to leave her life as a physical therapist & move to a wonderful small town. Tragedy & a persistent family led her to return to PT temporarily.
This one was emotional, funny, sad & heartwarming. The characters (primary & secondary) are really well developed & the town deals with real problems & issues.

This one clears a physical book off my shelves— right to my daughter‘s shelves. 😉
I enjoy McManus‘ books and this was no exception. The characters were complex and there was no shortage of twists.

I think this drew me in because of its proximity to where I was when I started it. It takes place in the British Virgin Islands & I was in the US Virgin Islands. I could see the island it took place on from my hammock.
It also had a part in NC which is where I was when I finished it. Wow.
I listened to the audio and it kept my attention & I enjoyed the plot.

I‘m back home after four months away. We had to unexpectedly & hurriedly travel to see my ailing FIL. We thought we‘d be gone 1-2 weeks. But, life (& death) happened.
Now we‘re unpacking, going through four months of mail, rescheduling appointments, etc. Plus the HVAC & washing machine have died.
One day at a time. But it‘s still a bit overwhelming. At least I‘m back to getting Sherlock cuddles.
💙🐶💙
