Review: The Breakaway

The Breakaway by Jennifer Weiner
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Weiner is always a steady read for me. I know what to expect and she delivers. I’ve been having such a hard time finding things to read that I wanted something I can count on and she delivered.

Review: Gone for Good

Gone for Good by Harlan Coben
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I went on a Coben journey after watching some of his Netflix movies. I think the books are good but I don’t seem to enjoy the narrator and I like these more as miniseries. They are still great for twisty stories if you enjoy those!

Review: Margo’s Got Money Troubles

Margo’s Got Money Troubles by Rufi Thorpe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow, what an unusual story. I don’t even know where to begin with this one.

The truth is that it took me a while to get into this story. Margot made so many poor decisions, one after the other that I wasn’t sure I wanted to keep going because I was frustrated. But then I slowly started to fall in love with her tenacity. I fell in love with her ability to forgive and her willingness to give others chances and her demands that she, too, be given chances.

This book full of oddball characters and collection of poor choices and misfortune will fill your heart when you’re not paying attention and leave you in tears, proud of these characters for all the growth and tenacity they experience over the course of the story.

I started on the fence and ended up loving it.

with gratitude to netgalley and William Morrow for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
