I am so many mixed emotions with this book. Here's are the items I enjoyed
- the family dynamics of Lee's and Kelly's
- the LGBTQ representation
- respect for nature
Here's what I didn't like:
- this book is marketed as a rom com and I am not sure there was much element of that
- the premise of a natural disaster that keeps them isolated and the damage done yet they still had internet and electrify
- the need to ratio food but I didn't not see them really rationing food and having celebrations
- none of the characters were likable and were all so selfish
Thank you @netgalley for a copy of this book.

I enjoyed this second chance romance. I enjoyed the flash book of the weekend Channi spent with Gabe as a reporter. I liked the mix of reviews and the current day too. A fun celebrity romance.

I started reading this book and gave up about 100 pages in. I think the author's writing style is just not for me, just a bit too wordy. Switching for audio really helped and I was able to finish the book.
Julia Whalen is such a great narrator and make the book so much more enjoyable. The siblings were all so spoiled and privileged and were not likable. I enjoyed it once Phoebe's POV started.

Thank you @netgaley for a copy of the book. I struggled with the first half of the book. It was really slow and the story was pretty much a lot of people making bad decisions. I switched to audio halfway through and enjoyed it a lot more.
I enjoyed the family dynamics and all the secrets held by each person. The story is told in multiple POV and past and present which drag a bit.

I don't sleep much now days and always feel groggy with the lack of sleep. Insomnia ups the level of paranoia and I loved how it played out for Emma. Her insomnia plus her fear of turning 40 and going crazy really sets the tone for this book. It kept me entertained and you never really know what was happening.

Wow! What a beautiful and heartbreaking love story. The backstory to both Archer and Bree is so sad and I love that they both were learning to live and survive on what they thought was best.
It broke my heart for Archer and how he was treated in town and how he has been so lonely. I love that Bree and Archer together helped each other healed.
I was worried that the love triangle would become messy and Glad how that story played out.

This was a great ending to this series. I love Arden and how he deals with his life and relationships with and without Caspian.

Thank you to @netgalley for a copy of Everything For You. This is book is for you if you are looking for Ted Lasso vibes with a grumpy soccer player like Roy Kent. I love how optimistic Oliver was and their tension was amazing.
I love seeing the Bergman family again with the addition of Linnea who is so adorable! I also love the addition of Gavin's poker buddies and how much fun they brought to the story.

Kennedy Ryan's writing is just incredible. I love how this love story is written with so much about relevant issues such as saving global warming and the treatment of indigenous people. I love the connection between Maxim and Lennix and how both were so determined with what they believed in.
The story has lots of steam and their love story is so beautifully told.
