My Review:
I was intimidated by the size of this book. Instead of committing to reading it straight through, I decided to start with a chapter a day. That didn't last long, as the first chapter captured my interest and curiosity. However, a few chapters in, I started wondering if I should DNF the book.

My Review:
I don't read novellas very often because I don't feel like they give the full story, or enough of the story to be invested in the storyline.

My Review:
I can't believe this is the first book I have read by Megan Walker. Her writing felt like an old friend. I was sure I had read something by her before. Well, now I have a new friend, and I will be reading whatever I can get my hands on by her!

My Review:
If the Boot Fits is the second of Karen Witemeyer's Texas Ever After series. Since the stories are fairy tale retellings, they don't need to be read in any particular order.

My Review:
I have really enjoyed this series! I wasn't going to read this one because it seemed like the series wrapped up in book two, but this book is Sophia's story (Marcus's sister).

My Review:
The Lost Lieutenant is the first book in the Serendipity & Secrets series by Erica Vetsch. My only regret is letting it languish on my TBR for so long.

My Review:
To Charm a Lady is the second book in The Cartwells duology. They don't have to be read in order, but you will enjoy them more if you do read them in order.

My Review:
I have a confession to make. This book has been on my "want to read" list for years. After checking it out of the library multiple times, including on Hoopla, and never reading it, I decided I didn't want to read it. Then, I decided to give it one more try. You all, I almost missed a fabulous book because of some weird mood I had previously been in!!

My Review:
Where the Last Rose Blooms is the third book in the series, and can be read as a standalone novel. Having said that, I have read the first two books, and wish I had read them closer to reading this one.

Tempest at Annabel's Lighthouse is one of those books that is hard to review. So, I am just going to give my incoherent thoughts.

My Review:
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë is a dense book. I can't remember the last time a book took me eight days to read. I feel like I accomplished something, LOL.

My Review:
Even if I Perish is told through a mix of letters and the character's perspective. It is based on the true accounts of Mary Cornish during WWII, and the CORB program that sent children from England to other countries. It is a harrowing story of loss, devastation, determination, and faith.

Fairest of Heart is the first of Karen Witemeyer's Texas Ever After series. With the stories being fairy tale retellings, they don't need to be read in any particular order.

I think my creative review juices have up and left me. I don't really know what to say about The Thief of Blackfriars Lane.
