I adored Some Like it Scot by Pepper Basham. It had everything I look for in a contemporary romance, plus more.

My Review:
Mistletoe Season has three Christmas novellas in it. I had not read anything by Sheila Roberts before, but I have loved several books by Kathleen Fuller and Pepper Basham. I went into it thinking I could skip a story if I didn't enjoy it, but it wasn't necessary because all three stories are wonderful.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books on My Winter 2024-2025 to-Read List. How are we already talking about 2025???

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books to Read During a Storm (these can be cozy/comfy reads, books with storms in them, atmospheric reads for dark and stormy nights, light reads to combat the heavy weather, etc.) (Submitted by Astilbe.) While it is a great topic, I am going to tweak it for books to read in a snow storm. These books might have a snow storm in them, or they might just have snowy covers, we'll see what I come up with.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.

My Review:
A fun Christmas collection all set in Kedgewick Creek, North Carolina.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is another freebie. I was going to go with covers with Christmas lights on them, but since I found exactly zero, I decided I should head in a different direction. Then I decided to share my top Christmas reads, until I realized I did that last year. So, I am going super generic and will be sharing books with Christmas trees on them. Then I am going to list a few things I am thankful for. 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.

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Ten Favorite Books from Ten Series (We all have a favorite book in our favorite series, right?)

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books on My Summer 2024 To-Read List. I haven't been doing lists like this this year, just trying to mostly go with the flow. However, I do have some ARCs I have signed up for and a few books I would like to get to (I won't include the two ARCs I am currently reading). So, let's see what the plan should be 😉 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.
May was a crazy, busy month with two trips. I feel like I did more reading toward the end of the month. So let's see what it actually looks like 😂. I finished 16 books and apparently it was RomCom/Contemporary fiction month, LOL! Usually I have more of a mixed bag of genres. 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 Books I Was Super Excited to Get My Hands on but Still Haven’t Read. So, I see we are having confessional today, LOL! I am not sure I really want to confess, but I will because I know I am not alone!! The hardest part is going to be narrowing it down to ten. I will also say, some were gifted, some were won, and some I did actually buy.

Title: Loyally, Luke
Series: Skymar #3
Author: Pepper Basham
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Release Date: May 14, 2024
Genre: Contemporary Christian Romance
My Review:
I have loved the Skymar series. I have been impatiently waiting for Loyally, Luke ever since I finished Positively Penelope. I highly recommend reading the books in order.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love as Much the Second Time Around. As someone who rarely rereads, I am going to skip this topic. I thought about doing books with "March" in the title, I have exactly zero on my Goodreads account. I also thought about books with "spring" in the title, yeah, it wasn't working either. Instead, I am going to do ten books with "book" in the title.
