64. Beach Read By: Emily Henry

I can very much see why everyone loves this book!!
Augustus and January are well known authors. When they end up living next door to each other in Beach houses, they end up helping each other with their books. This story was so heartwarming and even if you kind of knew what was going to happen, it was such a good read getting through it.
If you like a hate to love troupe, this one is for you.

63. The Most Beautiful Distaster By: Hope Carpenter

Thank you to the publisher for sending me an arc of the book. Comes out May 2021!!!

This was such a good read. I read through the whole book in one day or you could read it a chapter a day while taking notes. The author talks about her life and also shows ways that you can become closer to the Lord. This truthful story shows how you are not alone, while giving details on how to be closer to God.

62. Every Heart a Doorway By: Seanan McGuire Wayward Children’s Series

Borrowed from the library!!!!!

This was such a wonderful book. It’s a small book that I finished in an afternoon. As another reviewer has said, what happens when the kids come back from Narnia, when Jack comes back down the beanstalk, when Alice comes back home. How do they live regular lives after being in such grander lives somewhere else? In this book there is a home where children may go when they come back from wherever they have been. This is a long series of books which I will definitely read. Once you learn about who loves in this home and why…..murders begin. Go along with the children to see who will be next and why things are happening. Such a good book and I would recommend it to anyone.

61. The Bright Side of Going Dark By: Kelly Harms

This was such a good book to help with some crazy days that I have been having. I couldn’t put it down and just loved the storyline and characters. Mia Bell is a popular influencer on Social media. That’s saying it lightly while she has such a huge amount of followers. When she doesn’t get married but fake acts like it on Social media, she just has enough and throws her phone over a mountain. But, The quiet time makes her dig deep into who she is and what she wants in life. Paige Miller is able to hack into Mia’s account and begins to act like her, especially bc her not well known sister is having a hard time. Will they all meet up? Who is the real person rather than who they act like on the internet? I would recommend this book to anyone who needs a book to get your mind away from life. A book that you root for everyone and hopes things work out.

60. Freely and Lightly By: Emily Lex

Goodreads Audio Arc

This was such a wonderful book to listen to. Every chapter, the author talked about her life and you felt like you were sitting on the couch or running errands with her. Her focus was on her family and her relationship with God. I needed to hear this and I know that others would love hearing what she has to say.

I just looked on Instagram and she is a wonderful artist!!! The book is said to have gorgeous watercolor drawings throughout it.

4.5 out of 5 Stars

59. Three By: Ted Dekker

This is a book from my husband’s favorite author. I bypassed all of my other books and read this today. Sitting on the couch, I swear only after reading about half of it, I said out loud what I thought was the ending. The big surprise. When I finished the book, I shouted to him that I was correct!!

Kevin is having a hard time. He receives a random phone call saying that a game was going to begin to be played. He had exactly three minutes to confess his sin or the car he was driving would be blown up. Who called him? What is his deep dark sin and who does he have to shout it to? With help from his childhood friend and a FBI agent, he tries to figure out who has it out for him and for them not to hurt anyone in the meantime.

4 out of 5 Stars. Even with me figuring out the big twist early in the book.

58. Rosaline Palmer takes the cake By: Alexis Hall

This was a book that I received from the author for winning it on Goodreads.

I just couldn’t get into the book!! I read all types and kinds of books. And I am wondering how to put this. This book was all about bisexuality and a little bit of the baking. I tried to get through page 100, but I feel like it was a talk through how a mother talks all of the time about who she is. Again, however I say it, it will come out wrong. But, I just couldn’t get into it.

57. The Soldiers Redemption By: Lee Tobin McClain

This was the cutest 70 cent book from Mckays a gal could have bought. It melded all of the Nicholas Sparks books into one. Yes, you knew what was going to happen, but it still was a good read. Kayla and her son show up at a dog kennel that is looking for a job. Finn is hesitant to hire this unknown woman, especially bc he is still grieving a loss and she reminds him of it. What will happen when they start spending time together? What will happen when What Kayla is running from finds her in the small town?

4 out of 5. An easy read to get your mind off of life.

56. SHIVER By: Allie Reynolds

I would like to start by saying that my husband picked this book up at the library for me this afternoon and I finished this over 350 pager tonight. I couldn’t put it down

Out Now: at local library

Where to start? Friends are asked to come to a ski resort after 10 years of being away. It’s the same ski resort that they used to ski at in order for them to try out for the Olympics. They hadn’t seen each other since one friend went missing. Why didn’t she show up to the competition that day? Who had spoken to her and could have hurt her?

When crazy things start happening, well when they arrive to the ski place nothing is open and they are the only people there. Things quickly begin to be strange and with each chapter you are wondering who did it and is the girl really dead?

The author did a wonderful job at every other chapter being in the present time of the ski lodge and then 10 years ago and what was happening a few days and up until the friend went missing. I don’t remember who told me about this, but this has been on my to borrow list at the library. I’m glad that I did!!!

5 out of 5!! Everyone should read this mystery, especially when I didn’t realize the big surprise!
