First page in my new watercolor relaxation journal. @willa.wanders makes it look easy when it’s not! But it’s so joyful and meditative anyway.

This was more like a 3.5 and almost 4 but for me it went on a little longer than I wanted. I loved every single one of the characters and I loved how real and 3-dimensional they were. I loved that by the end of the book, I could relate to each and every one of them and my heart broken for almost each of their stories. So many themes explored here around family, marriage, sibling relationships, marriage, single-motherhood, young-motherhood, small towns and more. Beautiful story.
Absolutely excellent. Especially the first wish. But i loved all of this book and the worldbuilding and the idea behind it. I can’t recommend it enough!
A fun book with dramatic and over the top moments. I think I am likely too old for these types of books at this point.
I had a lot of fun with this light read about a family that moves to a beach town where many rich folks summer and while the mom, Charlie, gets to know all the wealthy women and their secrets and gossip, her husband who works at a local medical center is struggling and they are talking to each other less and less. There are a lot of funny moments in this book, and a lot of not-so-funny moments too. It is told with humor and doesn’t take itself too seriously but there are some serious topics tackled in this book. Some of the characters are over the top and not as three-dimensional as they could have been. But I still found this book to be very enjoyable and read it all in one sitting. I think it will be a lovely and fun beach read! with gratitude to netgalley and Little A for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
Ok this book was creepy. I had no idea it was going to have vampires or I might not have requested it but I had read C.J. Tudor’s books before and I knew they were slow burn mystery that I liked and this one was no exception. A kid is dead. Everyone assumes it must be the vampires because, come on, they are vampires! Right? Well, of course not right because if it was that obvious, it wouldn’t be a novel. At least not a good one, and she writes good novels. This is creepy, and fun, and interesting. I wasn’t crazy about the vampire bits but I loved the book. with gratitude to netgalley and Ballantine Books for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
It is very rare for me not to finish a book. In fact in the last three years, I’ve probably DNF’ed 2 books. And I’ve loved Messud’s other novels. But this one was just not what I expected and even at the 40% mark I was still struggling to focus. At that point, I decided to call it and not continue with reading the book. I am confident there will be others who love it and her writing, as always, is beautiful but this was just not the right book for me. Since I didn’t finish I will not rate it. Please read other reviews and I will absolutely look forward to and read Messud’s next book. with gratitude to W. W.

What an awesome idea for a book! This book works for anyone who’s a beginner or intermediate who would like to have some fun with patterns. Even though it’s simple, she has some lovely ideas of how to combine all the simple patterns she teaches to make some really beautiful pages. I loved reading these and am really looking forward to practicing them. with gratitude to edelweiss and Quarto Group for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
Even though I’ve never followed this account on any social platform, I really loved reading these comics. It’s amazing how some relatively simple drawings can have such profound messages/impact. This, to me, is the real power of art: to be able to say so much with so little. I highly recommend these. with gratitude to edelweiss and Simon & Schuster for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
If you want a gentle and really beautiful book on how to learn embroidery and commit to practicing regularly, this book is a fun way to learn and make a project out of it so you can learn all the different stitches and create some simple and beautiful patters. I loved it. with gratitude to Quarry Books, Quarto and edelweiss for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review |
