Forget Me Not
by Miralee Ferrell

2.5 stars. I listened to this audiobook in one sitting as it’s quite a quick read, clocking in at 4 hours. I picked this up because I was looking for books that would satisfy a “two books with the same titles” bingo square, and there’s at least three other Forget Me Nots that I have/will read. As an Oregonian, I was intrigued by the historical romance set in Baker City. I don’t often read Christian fiction, but it’s also nice to mix it up. In this second chance romance, Julia and preacher Seth rekindle their former flame after seven years apart. This book’s first turn-off was how Julia went from not recognizing this apparent love of her life to instantly feeling infatuated as if no time or intervening events had passed. I really struggled with the Chinese immigrant representation. It felt so stereotypical with too much emphasis on the white savior. Maybe the stilted broken English speech on the audiobook exaggerated the effect, but I felt there was a missed opportunity to humanized these underrepresented characters. I appreciate what the author is trying to do (as evidenced in the author’s notes), but I think she misses the mark in execution. Maybe this book would be better as a full-length novel in which their story gets fleshed out a bit more. I almost rounded this book up on the rating because I think the intentions are good, but as it currently stands, I would recommend skipping this.

Somewhere Beyond the Sea

While I did love The House in the Cerulean Sea a tad more, this book did not disappoint. TJ Klune has a way with words and the imagery created is magic. I so loved all the children and their unique outlook of the world. The story was uplifting, funny, charming, and full of hope.

I read this book for a summer reading bingo (square: read two books with the same title). This is a very short YA book but has excellent representation of Tourette’s and a sweet friendship/romance. There’s some tough family dynamics and painful social meanness.

An amazing book, full of risks and the enemy, who is supposedly always ahead. Ogres, Elves, Trolls, and more, with the human world included, this is a great book that you should totally read! It is also a thicker book, with about 730 pages.
