ARC received for an honest review

I have adored every book that I have read of Ms Reid's so far, and I have been impatiently awaiting the release of Dr Strange Beard and more of those Winston Brothers.

It pains me to to say this, however Dr Strange Beard just didn't come up to the heights of the other books in the series to me.

It felt like that for the first 75% of the book, Roscoe and Simone seemed to be in a loop, where they would start to get together, push away, ignore each other and then do it all over again. Nothing much really happened at all for 2/3 of the book.

Once we hit about 70% of the book though, things gathered pace and took a turn for the funny and romantic that I was missing. I thoroughly enjoyed it from this point on.

I know this makes it sound like I didn't like this book, but that's not the case. I did like it, I just didn't love it like the previous books. My paperback is jetting its way to my shelf as we speak.

I adored seeing a bit more of the Winston guys and gals throughout Dr Strange Beard

And whilst this one was a bit of a miss for me, I am impatiently waiting for the next books in the series.
