#BookReview The First Days of August by Alan Froning

I have a love/hate relationship with this book. For one, it's seriously incredible and so well written that OMG why haven't you read it yet? For the second, the ending made me SO DARN MAD. I did not enjoy that ending and I think it almost defeated the purpose of this book - but I'm…

#BookReview When You’re Young and In Love by Patricia Bourque

When You're Young and In Love by Patricia Bourque is a dramatic romance that has a lot going on. Send yourself back to the 60s with this book as we follow Nick, a guy who had a lot going for him but got himself in a messy situation. He's our lead character, and almost everything…

#BookReview Touch by Courtney Maum

Touch by Courtney Maum is one of my fave reads of 2020. Seriously, this book is ridiculously good. I was shocked by how much I loved this book. The plot sounds super intriguing, but the content just blows it out of the water. Let me explain: Sloane is a trend forecaster, and she's really good…

#BookReview The Amazing Snowman Duel by Yossi Lapid

  Snowman Paul is back, and this time he's down for a duel! Yossi Lapid's sweet series about the friendly Snowman Paul is one of my fave kids series at the moment. It's short, fun and teaches some valuable lessons! It's only natural for me to continue to snowball my way through the series (haha,…

#BookReview The Baby Maker by Lili Valente

The Baby Maker by Lili Valente is a lovely tale about a woman who wants a baby and finds love with a man from a famously fertile family. I found this book on Bookbub and I decided to get it while it was the low, low price of free because it sounded charming! I love…

#BookReview The Reluctant Fortune-Teller by Keziah Frost

The Reluctant Fortune-Teller by Keziah Frost is one of my favourite 2020 reads. This book is a serious contemporary gem. When I start reading it, I got instantly hooked and needed to binge the whole thing. It's not only a very sweet story with great themes, but it's also just a fun ride! Norbert Zelenka…

#BookReview Breakfast at Bronzefield by Sophie Campbell

Breakfast at Bronzefield is one of the best books I've read this year. No jokes. No lies. It's one of those books that opens you up to a world you might have heard of, but never really truly knew about before. I've watched Orange is the New Black, and have heard all of the stories…

#BookReview Alone Together: Love, Grief, and Comfort in the Time of COVID-19 by Jennifer Haupt et al

This collection is marvellous, let me tell ya. COVID is driving me (and everyone else, it seems) insane. Being stuck inside, being forced to work to pay bills, being scared and anxious and worried... We're all in the same boat, even when we're not. We're all in this together. And this book reminds readers of…
