This is a very great book with suspense, drama, and overall the book that is very good. Thank you for making this an OBOB book

The coziest kind of cozy fantasy. Merhorses, cats with wings, a librarian with a talking plant for a best friend who runs a jam shop out of her woodland cottage. Also cloud bears. Pick this one up if you want a book that just feels like a warm hug.

The Comfort Crisis

This book was recommended by a coworker and I listened to the audio via Libby. Overall, this book gave me a lot to think about regarding current comforts, personal physical challenges, and mental fortitude. While I may not follow through with all of the book’s calls to action, I do think I’ll try to embrace some of its spirit.

The Bookshop

When I first heard about this book about bookstores, it seemed right up my alley. Sure enough, this is a great book for book lovers and those who love browsing the shelves of their local brick and mortar. This historical journey through American booksellers goes back to the time of Benjamin Franklin and continues through cultural shifts in the county- from gay rights to racism. The business of books, the evolution of big box retailers and the transition to online sales and digital formats are all discussed. The book was a bit dry at times but did make me excited to visit independent bookstores in other parts of the country. I listened to the audiobook on Libby.

The Irresistible Urge To Fall For Your Enemy

3.5 stars. I feel torn about this book. It had a strong start introducing the brainy healer FMC and the MMC assassin who begrudgingly turns to her for a cure to an illness that is slowly sealing his fate in death. The premise has so much promise! I felt like the chemistry was under-delivered and the overarching plot felt rather underwhelming to me. I wanted more adventure and magic but instead there were brothels and boredom. I think I’ll skip future books in this romantasy series.

Not that easy to follow along with the pictures and instructions, even with a lot of the basic sewing skills.

Very disappointing. I used to love this series but the last few books have not been up to par.
