Historia
It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, and Charlotte and Seth are not looking for romance. Armed with emotional-support bear spray, Charlotte is in self-imposed isolation and on guard from men. Having a stalker can do that to a person’s nerves. Just across the hall and giving off woodsy vibes is Seth, a recently divorced arborist. As in today recently. Heights, he’s fine with. Trust? Not so much.

Too much unnecessary language
Revisado: 03-31-25
I couldn’t get through this. And occasional F word is one thing, but this was an unnecessary amount and bothered me

Historia
Romania, 1989. Communist regimes are crumbling across Europe. Seventeen-year-old Cristian Florescu dreams of becoming a writer, but Romanians aren’t free to dream; they are bound by rules and force. Amidst the tyrannical dictatorship of Nicolae Ceaușescu in a country governed by isolation and fear, Cristian is blackmailed by the secret police to become an informer. He’s left with only two choices: betray everyone and everything he loves—or use his position to creatively undermine the most notoriously evil dictator in Eastern Europe.

A Must Read
Revisado: 09-04-24
The beginning made me sad. It was hard to read about such difficult conditions.
Stick with it. This book is so worth it! It’s important history to read and feel gratitude for your own life and the triumph of those who keep going in difficult circumstances

Historia
Eve Hatch lives for surprises! Just kidding. She expects every tomorrow to be pretty much the same as today. She loves her cozy apartment in Brooklyn that’s close to her childhood best friend Willa, and far from her midwestern, traditional family who has never really understood her. While her job is only dream-adjacent, it’s comfortable and steady. She always knows what to expect from her life . . . until she finds herself expecting after an uncharacteristic one-night stand.

Well written but not for me
Revisado: 03-29-24
I’ve loved some of this author’s Audible shorts. Her writing is really good, excellent character voice, and she really knows how to do romance. A bit spicier than I personally like.
One thing I didn’t love: while I know the author meant to present the different varied reactions to the MC’s pregnancy, I really objected to the fact that her only representation of a Christian character is one who responds in a cold and negative way. Does she think that because Christians have a specific set of personal morals, we’re all unable to be happy for and supportive of someone who makes a different choice?

Wonderful funny characters plus unique story
Revisado: 12-30-23
There is so much humor and fun in this, but also a depth unusual to most romances. I love that it’s clear and uplifting. I love that they find a way for both of them to explore their dreams yet still find each other. Narration wasn’t my favorite but I’m not taking off stars because the book is just so good!

Historia
After a broken engagement, Cher decides to leave heartbreak behind by signing up for a holiday house swap. For the next few weeks, she’ll ditch sunny California to spend her first Hanukkah in New York City, a time of snow-covered sidewalks, festive store windows, hot cocoa, and...cute neighbors? As Cher is moving into her temporary new apartment, Eliot is moving his ex’s belongings out, and he soon finds himself offering to play tour guide. He’s nursing a broken heart too, and spending time showing the beautiful traveler around is exactly what he needs.

She writes such entertaining situations and realistic, lovable characters. I love that this is written for all audiences and hope she writes more like this. Book 3 of the series might be my favorite yet.

Historia
Hannah Gold never thought she’d speak to Ethan Reisner ever again. Getting dumped in high school will do that to you. But when she needs to find a beloved sweater in time for her parents’ 50th anniversary, she begins her search where she last saw it: Ethan’s childhood home. She thought calling Ethan out of the blue would be the hardest part, but breaking fifteen years of silence was just the beginning. Why is Ethan being so friendly? And helpful? And funny? And is it possible for someone to be handsome over the phone?

Unique Format, Sweet Terrific Story
Revisado: 10-03-23
I listened to this in a day. I’ve enjoyed all three of this authors originals for Audible and wish she had more PG rating offerings The phone call format is so unique. The humorous dialogue and situations are enjoyable. I loved the characters and their relationship. It’s always nice to read about the hope of love rediscovered!

Just what I needed
Revisado: 05-20-23
These short meditations are so well done. Today I felt stressed and did two app meditations that didn’t help. I played one of these and it helped. I liked her explanation of why and how staying present can calm us and help us heal from the effects stress and unpacked emotions can cause.

One of the Best Books I’ve Read
Revisado: 04-27-23
I really enjoyed this book. It’s very well written, touches on serious works issues while remaining being encouragingly hopeful. As delightful as the lemon cream cheese frosting cake she describes!

Mostly really good
Revisado: 03-24-23
I liked the artist the MC helps with hoarding, and the relationship between the two. However, I did not like when the MC ignores the possibility to renew a solid relationship with her past partner, saying she “deserves” a fling with a younger man. There’s no decent benefit to that kind of choice and it tarnished my respect for the main character
