BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: JEWEL ME TWICE


📖BOOK TITLE: JEWEL ME TWICE 

📖AUTHOR:  CHARISH REID 

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: 
#NinetySecondBookOf2024

After I read 'It Had to Be You' by Eliza Jane Braizer, I realized I needed more of that particular kind of story, and that brought me to 'Jewel Me Twice'.

The first thing that put me off was that there was no point of view (POV) for both the FMC (Celeste) and the MMC (Magnus), but still I moved through the story. After Dr. Doris Grant died and the mysterious red envelopes started rolling out, I wanted to know what Dr. Grant had planned, even from the grave.

Doris succeeded in bringing the crew back together for one last job, but I had a feeling it was more than the job; why bring the crew back to Stockholm, where everything went south? I also had a feeling that none of the crew members, including Celeste, knew Doris that well.

Also, I felt the romance between Celeste and Magnus overshadowed every other event in this book.

📖RATINGS: 3 STARS ⭐⭐⭐

BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW

📖 BOOK TITLE: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW  📖AUTHOR: FARAH HERON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:  #127thBookOf2024 Yes, this book is a little bonkers. This is a very unconventional love story, and you have to really get at it to grasp the story between Jay and Aleeza. You know I love everything time travel/parallel universe-related, and with each fiction book I read about this topic, my mind is blown away every single time. Yes, there's more mystery elements than the rom-com because how can Aleeza be in love with Jay, who is not even in her timeline, talk about a guy who is unavailable? I loved how put together this book was, how the mystery elements worked together; there was no point in this book that was left to assumptions; everything was explained well without being boring and overly descriptive. Overall, I really enjoyed this story, and definitely this will not be my last Farah Heron's book. 📖RATINGS: 4 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 📖QUOTES: ♤ Time isn’t linear. There are an infin...

#16 NETGALLEY READ: SOMEONE LIKE YOU

📖 BOOK TITLE: SOMEONE LIKE YOU    📖AUTHOR: SANDY BARKER  📖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 ...
