Weekly Reading Round-Up
Happy Friday, all! I’ve been hopping around from genre to genre this week, starting with old school British chick lit: Trisha Ashley’s Chocolate Wishes, set in the small village of Sticklepond in Lancashire. Our heroine’s mother abandoned the family for places unknown (possibly Goa), leaving our heroine to raise her brother, Jake, while also running…

Read MoreTWO WARS AND A WEDDING: Betsy at Smith

Happy Friday, all! My kids have gotten me sick– again– so hello from the fever haze! In honor of Valentine’s Day, I dug into my old Jo Beverley collection and re-read her Forbidden Magic, which contains some of my favorite tropes (we all have our favorite tropes): the heroine of good family fallen on hard…

Hi, all! Apologies for being a day late with this week’s reading round up! It’s been a bit of a discombobulating week (long story involving pub dates for future books moving around, and also trying to figure out what’s going on with my March book tour for Two Wars and a Wedding), so I turned…

Happy Friday, all! As the onslaught of pediatric plague continues (this week it was both kids home sick with cough, sore throat, and fever– I’ve really lost count of how many plagues we’ve had at this point), I took refuge in the third book in Elly Griffiths’s Harbinder Kaur series, Bleeding Heart Yard. In this…

Happy Friday, all! Confession: I’m having trouble remembering what I’ve read recently. I’ve been joking with friends that our long-running serial House of Plague has been going on for so long now that we’ve run out of new content and been reduced to reruns. This week was “Norovirus: the Return!” otherwise known as “On the…
