My Month Is Booked: July 2024 Edition

 Here are the books I read in June:


 

The Wedding Party –L.R. Jones

My Rating: 4 stars

I really enjoyed this mystery novel. It was very good. It wasn’t overly violent or gory and I appreciated that.

 

You Look Beautiful Tonight –L.R. Jones

My Rating: 3 stars

This book was full of twists and turns I didn’t see coming. I totally did not see the ending coming.

 

Homerun Proposal –Maren Moore (Orleans University #1)

My Rating: 3 stars

I wish this book had more baseball talk in it. I also felt like it was overly heavy on the smut. I don’t mind some smut in books but I don’t like it when it’s over the top. I did really enjoy the parts of the books when they weren’t focusing on the smut scenes, but I felt like there needed to be a lot more of those parts.

 

She’s Up To No Good –Sara Goodman Confino

My Rating: 4 stars

This story follows two women (a grandmother & her granddaughter) and shares their story. I really loved this book. This is an author that I found this year and I really love her writing.

 

Don’t Forget to Write –Sara Goodman Confino

My Rating: 4 stars

This novel takes place in 1960 and is about Marilyn finding her way in life. She is sent to live with her aunt for the summer after bringing embarrassment to the family and her future at returning to college is up in the air.

    Ooo, I'm going to have to check out The Wedding Party and You Look Beautiful Tonight -- have been in the mood for more thrillers/mysteries lately. :]!

      The Wedding Party was so good. You Look Beautiful Tonight was good too but the twist it had in it freaked me out. Let me know what you think of them if/when you read them. A series I highly suggest is the Amish mystery series by Linda Castillo. The 16th book in the series just came out and I know that may seem like a lot of books but they are such quick reads and they are all so good.

Books Read in February 2022

I rated it 3 stars on the Goodreads website. When Less Becomes More -Emily Ley I love Emily Ley's books and I had the pleasure of meeting her at one of the Wild For Planners Go Wild Planner conferences. She is super sweet! I really enjoy her personal development books. I rated this book 3 stars. Heartstopper (Volume 4) -Alice Oseman I love this series so much. I love graphic novels and I really wish my library had more of them. I rated this book 4 stars. Bad Moms -Nora McInerny I like this movie (and the sequel A Bad Mom's Christmas) and I saw this at a discount store and I had no idea it was made into a novel. I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite book ever since I knew everything that happened since it stuck very close to the movie. I rated it 3 stars. Life, Unscheduled -K...
