I finally read a five star book last week, my first this year. It was A Little Too Familiar by Lish McBride. It's what I would call a "cozy" paranormal romance, with a lonely wolf hero searching for family ties and an animal mage heroine who specializes in matching witches to familiars. Bad things do happen, but there's also a great group of friends and a found family theme. Lessons In Chemistry has been on my wishlist for awhile and I loved EEAAO.
I'm probably in the minority but I really didn't like EEAAO all that much. Acting was great. The beginning hooked me. The end scene between the mom and the daughter had me teary-eyed (though admittedly it doesn't take much for me to cry, lol). I liked the rocks. But other than that, I didn't enjoy it all that much. For me, it just felt too disjointed. Don't hate me 😊
I heard so many good things about Lessons in Chemistry and it's been on my list, but I never got round to buying it. I might just actually pick it up now!
I don’t watch a lot of movies (my eyes don’t focus well), but my last 5 star read was In the Lives of Puppets by TJ Klune. I’ve read a few of his that were very good, but I’ve been waiting for his truly great one, and this is it!
You write the best newsletters! I always come away with a nugget of goodness.
This week I read The Dictionary of Lost Words. It’s historical fiction about the lack of women’s words in the creation of the Oxford English dictionary. Really appealed to my word-nerd side!!
