Another fantastic book by one of my favorite authors. So many twists and turns, and as always very well-written. Definitely recommend!

If watching these two dogs on YouTube gave you a laugh during the pandemic, then you'll love reading more about them in this book. In fact, I think all dog lovers will relate to these two. Throughly enjoyed it! (But don't tell Olive & Mabel that I currently only have a cat right now.)

Just starting this one today. Heard goid things so looking forward to it. Excited to know there's a 2nd book coming later this year.

Been looking forward to reading Olive, Mabel & Me for months and finally got it from the library. Can't wait to start reading it. Been following the tales of the dogs on Twitter since the beginning of the pandemic!

Wow! Fantastic book. I read it two days, which is unusual for me. It was beautifully written, and so captivating. I had forgotten what it was about when I started it, so it felt like I was being taken along for an incredible unknown journey.

500 Miles from You | Jenny Colgan

Always love books from Jenny Colgan and this one didn't disappoint. As others have mentioned, I would have liked a bit more story after Lissa & Cormac meet, but maybe they'll be mentioned in another book in this series? Definitely enjoyed catching up with some of the characters from her previous 2 books in this series. 😀

Great book! As enjoyable as all of Ruth Ware's books have been. So often with a thriller you figure it out well before you finish, but with this one, I never could guess the ending and it definitely surprised me.

It's an odd book, but strangely it's growing on me. Looking forward to seeing how it ends. The story takes place in Hamburg, Germany, which gives it a different and unique element.

Spring House | Mary Ellen Taylor

Starting Spring House today. Kinda worried because it only has a 40% rating here. But I read Winter Cottage and it has some of the same characters, so well see how it goes.

Enjoyed the book, easy read and some good twists & turns. The cons would be that it didn't wrap up very well, it was too quick. Although I suppose it leaves room for a follow-up book... Also, as others have mentioned, weren't the two main characters a little too closely related to be involved together? But other than that, good book and I'm looking forward to more books by this author.

Definitely enjoyed it, it's an easy read. Good characters, a couple of twists. I think there might be a sequel to it, so will have to look into it.

Just read the sequel, Postcards at Christmas. Litsy doesn't have it listed. It was an ok read, nice to follow up on the characters, but it very short, not too much to it.

Just finished The Overdue Life of Amy Byler (good book especially for book lovers) and moving on to The Last Bathing Beauty. Looking forward to it!

Vicki1109 Just finished the book. It was good. Maybe not my favorite, but I enjoyed reading about a Midwestern summer resort in the '50s. 5y

I see a lot of people gave this book a So-So rating, but I really enjoyed it. I listened to it as an audiobook and it had a great woman who read it. I wonder if that's what made the difference.

Just started this a few days ago, enjoying it so far. In the end though, the best part will be that the book introduced me to Litsy.
