My Review:
Five Stolen Rings was a lot of fun. I enjoyed listening to the audiobook, even though I really didn't like the male narrator's narration. I felt like he came across harshly all the time and he didn't do the female voices very well. The female narrator did a fantastic job.
I don't know how we are already at the end of August! I didn't have as many 5-star reads this month, but I still read a lot of good books. I read 15 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.

My Review:
All's Well that Friends Well is the second book in the Lucky in Love series. This series is about a sibling group, and while I will always recommend reading them in order, this one could be read as a standalone. The first book is about Indie, and this one is about Juliette, and they have two other siblings, Aurora and Silas.
Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Books Guaranteed to Put an End to Your Book Slump (Which books would you recommend to someone (it’s me, I’m someone) dealing with the dreaded book slump? No book is grabbing their attention or making them excited to sit down and read and they are suffering for it.) I can't guarantee that these books would get everyone out of a book slump, but these are books that would get me out of a book slump. I was originally going to just go with romcoms, but I decided to be a bit more versatile. The thing they all have in common: the stories stuck with me.

Top Ten Tuesday-books to get me out of a book slump
Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Beach/Beachy Reads (Share books you’d take to the beach OR books that take place at the beach.) I would literally take any book to the beach, so I am going to with beach settings, most with beach in the title.

You guys, I have no idea how it is July! Where did June go? And, will July go just as fast (I hope not!)? Anyway, June was a pretty good reading month. I read 18 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.

My Review:
All's Fair in Love and Blackmail is just the lighthearted, fun read you need for a palate cleanser, when things are hard, when you are in a reading slump, or you just need a laugh, or when you just want a contemporary read.
Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Books that Include/Feature [insert your favorite theme or plot device here] (for example: unreliable narrators, coming of age, darkness vs. light, time travel, metafiction, a specific romantic trope, good vs. evil. cliffhangers, flashbacks, plot twists, red herrings, loose ends, stories within stories, meet cutes, symbolism, etc.) (submitted by Alice @ The Wallflower Digest) I really enjoy the Marriage of Convenience trope, so that is what I am going to share about today.

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books That Provide a Much-Needed Escape (bonus points if you tell us why!). I am of the mindset that ALL books (at least fiction) provide an escape, so I am tweaking the topic just a little bit to books I recently loved escaping into. In order to make the list, the books must have received 5-stars from me. And, since I have read a TON of romcoms recently...hopefully there is a little bit of variety in the list😂.

I was drawn to Maid of Dishonor by the cover. I have had this one on my TBR for several years, and after reading a book by recently by Gracie Ruth Mitchell, I decided it was time to give this one a try.

My Review:
Beauty and the Beach is the first book I have read by Gracie Ruth Mitchell, but it won't be the last. I was approved for an audiobook through Net Galley, but when I went to listen to it, it was gone. So, I listened from Hoopla and I recommend you do the same.
I am not sure how July is over already. It was a busy month but I feel like I still got a decent amount of reading in. Let's see what the month actually looks like. I read 17 books and DNF'd one (which is the exact same as June 😮, although I had more novella's in July). Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is May Flowers — Pick your own title for this one to reflect the direction you choose to go with this prompt (books with flowers on the cover, flower names in the title, characters whose names are flower names, stories involving flowers/gardeners). I am going to feature 10 books on my want to read list that have flowers on the cover.
