Aunt Crystal & The Vowel Towels

Title: Aunt Crystal & The Vowel Towels

Author: Sandy Ryerse

Publisher: Aunt Crystal Press

Genre: Children's fiction

My Review:

Aunt Crystal and The Vowel Towels is Sandy Ryerse's debut novel. Written for children in the early elementary years, it would be a great addition to any school or home library.

Stacking the Shelves #99, Sunday Post #96, Sunday Salon #90

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? I had another busy week. I am REALLY hoping things settle down soon. We found out another problem with my car. When they took the engine apart they discovered the block the engine sits on is not straight. They had never seen that before 😲. Still no word on when we will get the car back. I am hoping to catch up on a few things this weekend, and MOSTLY relax. What are your plans for the weekend?

Stealing Adda

Title: Stealing Adda

Series: Head Over Hills #1

Author: Tamara Leigh

Publisher: Tamara Leigh

Genre: Christian Fiction, Contemporary Romance

Source: Kindle Unlimited

My Review:

While Stealing Adda is the first in the Head Over Hills series, each book stands alone. I have read the fourth book in the series, Splitting Harriet, and I am unsure how the books are connected.

Top Ten Favorite Christmas Stories (so far!)

 

Absolutely Not In Love

Title: Absolutely Not in Love

Series: Sweater Weather #7

Author: Jenny Proctor

Publisher: Jenny Proctor Creative

Genre: RomCom, Contemporary Fiction, Hockey Romance

Source: Kindle Unlimited

My Review:

 Absolutely Not in Love is the first book I have read that is solely written by Jenny Proctor. I have read others that she co-authored with Emma St. Clair. It is book seven of the Sweater Weather series. The books are loosely tied together by their cozy fall romcom vibe and take place in the same town, Harvest Hollow.

Surrender Bay

Title: Surrender Bay

Series: Nantucket Love Story #1

Author: Denise Hunter

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Genre: Christian Fiction, Contemporary Romance

Source: Own

My Review

Surrender Bay is the first book in the series, but each book easily stands alone. They are connected by location, not people.
