My Review:
The Story People is the first book I have read by Heather Kaufman. It's always hard to know what to expect when you read an author for the first time.

My Review:
Clock Tower Bound is the second book in the Bookstrings series. It can be read as a stand-alone novel, but I recommend reading them (including the novellas) in order.

My thoughts upon reading for the second time:
My second reading of Twice Sold Tales was even richer than my first reading. I recently read the novella Spines and Leaves which gives us great background on Milton (the book doctor) and Atticus (his parrotlet).

My Review:
Having read Twice Sold Tales, I was thrilled to find out there was a novella. Spines and Leaves is the perfect introduction to the series.

My Review:
I believe The Bookish Bandit is the first book these authors have written together. I love the play on words as it is the TBR series. The cover is super cute and drew me in.

My Review:
I am on a Susie Finkbeiner kick. I am trying to read all her books and every time I turn around (it seems). I learn about another one she has written. I absolutely love the cover of The All-American, her newest release. We have come, yet again, to a story that will be hard for me to explain all that I felt as I read this story.

My Review:
It's been a while since I have read a book by Chautona Havig. I was drawn to Twice Sold Tales when I heard the setting was a bookstore (plus that cover!!!). It started getting a lot of hype, and I decided to reserve it from the library.

My review:
I love reading Denise Hunter's books. Her writing is solid and consistent. I have to say A Novel Proposal has quickly topped my favorites of hers!!!
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic Bookish People I’d Like To Meet (These can be authors, book characters, book bloggers/influencers, cover designers, cover models, etc.) Since I really don't have any thoughts on this topic today...I decided to instead list ten bookish books that I want to read (Which might help me with this topic next time it comes up 😂). Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.
Ten Bookish Books I want to read (and yes, you will have seen a few of these before because I own them and STILL haven't read them 🤦)

Smitten Book Club is a novella collection by four authors. It is the third book in the Smitten collection, but I do not think you need to read the others before reading this one.

My review:
Of Literature & Lattes is the second book in the Winsome series by Katerine Reay. I should have reread the first book, The Printed Letter Bookshop. It was hard keeping the characters straight, especially at the beginning of the book.

I have been waiting for months to read The Blackout Book Club by Amy Lynn Green. I loved her first two books, Things We Didn't Say and The Lines Between Us.
