It was so silly! I loved it.

A typical beach read from Jennifer Weiner taking place on the outer Cape. I have read many of her books and have enjoyed them for their storytelling and pure escapism. This one did not disappoint although I had to construct a family tree to keep track of all the twists and turns. There were so many skeletons in the closet with this one especially when Ronnie’s son ended up having a tryst with her granddaughter’s fiancé. The author always ties up her books with a big reveal at the end.

This was a cute, easy beach read and follow up to It Happened One Summer. The central relationship was a little frustrating at times, but I loved the characters (especially Hannah!)

Wicked and delightful! Excited to read more by this author . The story came full circle and without less ends

I didn’t really like how mean the family was, but I though Amelia was funny!

I got to meet the author of the Penderwick series and I got to ask questions like do you speak Latin because there was Latin in the Penderwicks? She said it was fun the add different languages into it but she doesn’t speak Latin. It was so cool to meet my favorite author in the world everyone should read her books and she has a new book The Library of Unruly Treasures

This story is a sweet love story where the conflict is internal and the character needs to overcome herself. Very cute. Loved it!

what a sweet and dramatic finish to this sweet and dramatic romance between a lord-turned-PI and a soldier-turned-bookseller. In this final episode, Will helps Kim confront his family trauma when Kim’s elder brother is accused, quite logically, of murder. Kim has no love for the brother who spent their childhood torturing him physically and psychologically, nor for the father who permitted it all to happen. But the thing is, if Will and Kim are to have their future together, it would certainly not be aided by Kim’s role as the heir to a Marquis. So, Kim is prepared to sacrifice whatever it takes to keep the crumbling estate away from them both. That is, until Will gets framed for another murder.

I thought the book was funny because the family thought of silly names.

While the identity of the killer in this murder mystery didn’t surprise me, I enjoyed this cast of characters and would go back earlier in the series. (This was gifted to me, so I started rather in the middle of things.) I loved hanging out in Victorian London and was sufficiently pulled along with both main and side plots to cruise through the book at a relaxed pace. Made for a nice way to unwind after the day.
