BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: FOUR WEEKENDS AND A FUNERAL

📖BOOK TITLE: FOUR WEEKENDS AND A FUNERAL 

📖AUTHOR: ELLIE PALMER 

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: 
#113thBookOf2024
I am a little bummed that I didn't enjoy this story as much as I would have loved to. Adam and Alison's love story is one I didn't quite connect to—the tension was strong, but the connection between the two main characters I did not feel. It felt forced to me, and the chemistry between the two MCs was definitely lacking.

I wanted to shake some sense into Alison. You hate hiking; admit it. Why beat yourself up for something you can't control? Every page/chapter I turned, Sam's name haunted me. We get it, Sam is dead, and it is a very uncomfortable situation, but it was very repetitive.

Let me not get started on Adam's so-called issues 😂😑. There were a lot of ramblings here and there that, in my opinion, were not relevant to the plot.

For a rom-com, it was heavy and the love interests didn't appeal to me.

📖RATINGS: 2 OUT OF FIVE 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 ...
