Top Ten Tuesday-Not my typical books

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic isBooks I Enjoyed that Were Outside My Comfort Zone (or books you’d like to read that are outside your comfort zone!) I feel like I have done this topic before, or something similar, but since I couldn't find it, I will just apologize if this is a repeat, LOL! 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.

Wishing for Mistletoe

Series: Love on Sanctuary Shores

Author: Robin Lee Hatcher

My Review:

While Wishing for Mistletoe is part of a series, each novel is standalone, written by different authors, and set on the same island.

Stacking the Shelves #192 Sunday Post #189 Sunday Salon #183

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? Mine was long. I am still completely wiped out. We had 5 showings between M-W, which contributed to the longer week. However, our house DID go under contract, BUT they have to sell their house first. So, my praying friends, please pray their house sells and they continue with the contract on our house. I don't know that I will handle it well if it falls through a third time. I am SO thankful it is the weekend!! We are mostly catching up on projects at home. I feel like I should start packing, but will hold off until their house goes under contract. I have already missed things that got packed up this summer.

Five Stolen Rings

Title: Five Stolen Rings

Author: Gracie Ruth Mitchell

Narrators: Rylee Kuberra & John Rogers

Publisher: Audible Audio

Genre: Christmas RomCom, Contemporary Romance,

Source: Hoopla

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.
