  Here are the books I read in July: If Something Happens To Me –Alex Finlay My Rating: 5 stars This is another mazing novel from Alex Finlay. I love that his novels are dual POV’s. I did not see the twists coming in this one.   Rage –Linda Castillo (Kate Burkholder #17) My Rating: 5 stars This is the newest novel (#17) in the Kate Burkholder series.

  Here are the books I read in June 2025: A First Time for Everything –K.L. Walther My Rating: 5 stars Another amazing novel from start to finish. I absolutely adore K.L. Walther and her writing. I loved everything about this book and this is definitely one of those books I wish I could read again for the first time.   Atmosphere –Taylor Jenkins Reid My Rating: 5 stars Wow, this book was incredible. I enjoyed it so much. I have loved all of Taylor Jenkins Reid novels.
