#SixtyninthBookOf2024 #Arc

Thank you to the author for this ARC. I received this ARC voluntarily in exchange for my honest opinions.

The cover of this book is beautiful, and it was what first drew me in. I loved the characters, particularly Nkechi. The whole story of this book is about how the Ifeanyis navigate a period of forced lockdown, job loss, grief, elections, racism, and an unexpected pregnancy.

Obi and Nkechi's marriage has been through a lot, and I am so glad they stuck to each other. Like they say, marriage is a school you will never stop learning from!

I loved the whole rant about politics, but over time the politics talk became too much for me. Naturally, I'm not a fan of politics at all. With everything happening in the country, the Ifeanyis came to realize that family is everything.

HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND BY KATHLEEN WHYMAN

๐Ÿ“– BOOK TITLE: HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND? ๐Ÿ“–AUTHOR: KATHLEEN WHYMAN  ๐Ÿ“–THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:  #154thBookof2024 I love this book, the humor! The drama! And the mystique surrounding Scott and his numerous problems. I can't believe Marie and his ex-wife married this guy. Scott is an a$$hole, and he deserves to be treated as such. Those poor innocent kids ๐Ÿ˜ฉ. While humor was a big part of the novel, this book shines a light on serious topics such as infidelity, gaslighting, serial lying, and paternal irresponsibility towards children, just to say the least. I had so much fun laughing while reading this book and gained awareness of how lies and subtle gaslighting build up! What Scott did is unacceptable! And my heart goes out to all the things he did to the women he was with; what a gag๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคข. And yes, there is a love interest ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ. ๐Ÿ“– RATINGS : 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

#16 NETGALLEY READ: SOMEONE LIKE YOU

๐Ÿ“– BOOK TITLE: SOMEONE LIKE YOU    ๐Ÿ“–AUTHOR: SANDY BARKER  ๐Ÿ“–THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:  #134thBookOf2024 Thank you to Netgalley, Boldwood Books, and Sandy Barker for granting my request to read this e-ARC and provide my honest opinions. I would have rated this 3.5 stars, but I rounded it up to 4 stars. The whole transition from friends to lovers took me on a ride, and I really thought that both Raff's and Gaby's HEAs (Happily Ever After) would not happen due to some circumstances on both MCs part. "Someone Like You" is the fourth book in the "Ever After Agency Series," and I read this book as a standalone even without reading the rest in the series. Honestly, I feel that no one can be as dumb and oblivious as Raff. Like, seriously, dude, how can you not know when someone is flirting with you? The whole matchmaker bit got me excited (that's a dream job). Overall, I really enjoyed this story, even if I thought it was way too long and dragging ...

#17 NETGALLEY READ: SOME LIKE IT SCOT

๐Ÿ“– BOOK TITLE: SOME LIKE IT SCOT  ๐Ÿ“–AUTHOR: PEPPER BASHAM  ๐Ÿ“–THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:  #135thBookOf2024 Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for granting my request to read this e-ARC and provide my honest opinions. It has been long since I've felt all the feels of a romantic swoon, and this book filled my heart with a renewed faith in love and what love can do to a person. I kept wishing for this book not to end for me to continue immersing myself in the richness of the love story between Graeme (I pronounce this as "grim" in my head; I hope that is correct ๐Ÿ˜‚) and Katie. These two give a whole different meaning to love, ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ and I love it for them. Katie, the travel writer who does not have roots in any place, meets Graeme, who has a loving family in Mull and is not thinking of going anywhere any time soon. After meeting our two MCs, I thought that maybe this was just going to be a fling, but alas, with these two, the word fling doesn'...
