Oh, Say Can You See is the first book I have read by J.P. Sterling. It is also the first in the Stars, Stripes, and Hockey Nights series. I enjoyed the audio narration by Kasey Miracle and Kyle Snyder.

My Review:
Well, if you want a book that will take you through the entire roller coaster of emotions, look no further.

My Review:
The concept of Reverie is unique, and the hype surrounding the book is why I read it.

My Review:
Once I got used to the male narrators voice, I really enjoyed this book. It's not that his narration was bad, just not what I was expecting.

My Review:
I was excited to finally get Rosalie and Zev's story. This is the fourth in the series, and I highly recommend reading the other books first.

My Review:
I love Natalie Walter's books and humor. I have been looking forward to this one for over a year (since I first heard about it), and I had high expectations.
Series: Only Magic in the Building #5
Author: Carina Taylor
Narrators: Stephanie Rose and Lee Samuels

My Review:
Another fun installment of the Only Magic in the Building series. These books are all set in the same historic building, with light magical elements. One thing I appreciate is that the "magical" element is different in each book.
Series: Only Magic in the Building #3
Author: Jenny Proctor
Narrators: Stephanie Rose and Lee Samuels

My Review:
Petals and Plot Twists is a standalone book in the Only Magic in the Building series. These books are all set in the same historic building, with light magical elements and a tendency to play matchmaker among its residents.

My Review:
I put this book off for a few weeks because the title was hitting a little too close to home, LOL. However, I have to let go of my regret of judging a book by its title and assuming it would be similar to my situation.
Series: Maple Valley #2
Author: Melissa Tagg
Source: Library
My Review:
Some Bright Someday is the second in the Maple Valley series. I didn't realize that some of the characters first appeared in the Walker series (I haven't read it). I didn't feel like I missed anything, but I would have preferred to know that before diving into this series. This book can easily be read as a stand-alone, but I recommend reading Now and Then and Always first.
Series: RomCom University #1
Author: Annah Conwell
Narrators: Cat Protano and Keval Shah

My Review:
I am not the target audience for this book. It is a young adult novel, which I did not realize before starting it. That is on me. However, I have loved everything I have read by Annah Conwell, so I was curious.
Series: Hope Harbor #12
Author: Irene Hannon

My Review:
I started listening to this book on Hoopla, but I was not enjoying the narrator's narration, which is odd because I typically like books read by Thérèse Plummer. It may have been the multiple points of view shared that contributed to my dissatisfaction with the narration.
Series: Trinket Sisters #2
Author: Kristi Ann Hunter

My Review:
Amy is a new believer, and her sister, Emma, has given her a list of things she now "must" do. It is overwhelming, and Amy is determined to figure it all out on her own; she doesn't need someone else telling her what to do.

My Review:
I had the honor of meeting Angela Ruth Strong at a reader event in November of 2024. At that time, this book was in progress, and Angela was telling me a little bit about it. I was excited about the uniqueness of the storyline. Claire Holloway Is Winging It did not disappoint.

When You Look At Me is a heartwarming story about coming out on the other side of the darkest trials.

My Review:
Poor Alex is the only one of his siblings without a family. He is so lonely that when a couple of his friends suggest he let their friend Nora use his kitchen for a cooking show and have him be her student, he agrees without much thought. Her cooking is incredible, and it will be a bonus to have something to occupy his time.

My Review:
While this is the second in the series it is not imperative to read the first book in the series first. However, I will always suggest that you do 😉. The series is linked through three siblings, so the books are interrelated.

Series: Give a Bookish Girl a Biker #1
Author: Dulcie Dameron

My Review:
The Backpack Bride is the first book in the Give a Bookish Girl a Biker series. The series has multiple authors, so the books will be loosely connected and easy to read as stand-alone novels. This novel is a spinoff from Dulcie's Switch and Score book.
