I really enjoy BK Borrison’s books and characters and the sweet, lovely Lovelight farms. This one was no exception. It’s hard not to wish you had this little town nearby with all these charming and wonderful characters.

Review: Tell Me Everything

Tell Me Everything
Tell Me Everything by Elizabeth Strout
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There’s something magical about Elizabeth Strout’s writing, for me. It’s quiet, tender, and real. I love reading about her characters. I love the way they interact and I love the way they live their lives.

This book has a mystery in its heart. But even that, of course, is really about the human condition. About family, love, loyalty, marriage, friendship. You can’t help but love each character a bit and feel so much love for them. They are quiet, broken, lovable.

I hope Strout continues to write these wonderful stories that I love.

Review: Three Keys

Three Keys
Three Keys by Laura Pritchett
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

In this case, I’m afraid the writing really got in the way of my ability to enjoy this novel. I tried to read it no less than 5 different times. And I liked the premise but the execution really got in the way. the main character spent a lot of time complaining and the writing was really repetitive.

Many others seem to have enjoyed this so please give it a try, you might love it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I loved this idea of a teacher whose car breaks down and she finds herself inside the town where her favorite book is set in. Which avid reader hasn’t hoped for an event like this? Or is it just me? Lovely and creative idea executed well and a joyful read as a result.
