LILY AND THE OCTOPUS BY STEVEN ROWLEY
This is a quirky one and not for the reader who likes things straight forward. Which, I realized is ‘kinda’ me? I spent most of the book annoyed at the slight immaturity of Ted and how it seemed like things were happening to him rather than Lily. Yet – I balance it with, who am I to judge how people deal…

THE HOTEL NANTUCKET BY ELIN HILDERBRAND
I always think that I struggle with Hilderbrand book but she might be top 5 authors I have read and purchased books for… so take that little doubter in my mind. This was a VERY interesting read.

IT ENDS WITH US BY COLLEEN HOOVER
Let me start out by being honest here, I picked this book up only because it went ‘viral’, otherwise this book wouldn’t be something that would catch my eye. This is my first Hoover book and I’m still on the fence if it will be my last. In the beginning of the book, I struggled to…
