Give me a small town romance and I will eat it up. I really liked this book, and although I have not previously read any of Elsie Silver's books, I can say that she is now one of my favorite authors. I also truly love anything grumpy/sunshine and this serves. I thought Summer and Rhett had great chemistry, as well as stellar banter that had me laughing several times out loud. Summer and Rhett are both so used to doing what's expected of them or what they are supposed to do, but I love that they threw caution to the wind and finally gave in and both did what they wanted to do. And the princess nickname? Swoon. I love the way this author writes and how she world builds and the side characters she introduces and develops so well. It was really a great book, and worth checking out.

Easily one of my favorite reads of the year and probably the fastest five stars I've given out. Yes, it's THAT good. Willa and Cade and Luke are EVERYTHING. This book features an age gap, small town romance, with forced proximity, an adorable and amazing little kid, stellar banter and out of the world chemistry with super steamy scenes, single parent, grumpy/sunshine, a wonderfully silly and one of a kind nanny, characters taking care of each other when they're sick and some seriously hilarious laugh out loud moments. It really had everything you could ever want. It's such a beautiful story, especially the way Willa is with Luke, and Luke's relationship with both his father and mother. Once again, the way Elsie Silver writes is so good, and the world building and side characters are unmatched. PLEASE READ THIS BOOK RIGHT NOW.

Nikki Castle says in the author's note that this book is full of fun and spice. She certainly delivers on both of those fronts. I always love the premise of two people not wanting a relationship and swearing they will never love anyone, and then proceeding to hook up as friends with benefits and thinking that they WON'T fall for each other. Of course they do. I thought Aiden and Dani had crazy chemistry and the lessons they learned and the way they found each other in the end was just so sweet and perfect. And yes, chapter eight is everything you never knew you needed. I'm so looking forward to the continuation of this series, and for Kane and Isabella's story next.

Great guide to mitochondria

A great guide to mitochondria and mitochondrial dysfunction. I've suspected that this has been my problem for awhile now so I wanted to read a detailed book about it, to see what I can do to help myself. Chang doesn't miss ANYTHING in this book! I felt it was comprehensive, detailed and just what I was looking for. I liked that it was easy to read with simple terms that anyone could understand. I definitely recommend this book.

Great guide to 5G and dirty electricity

Dirty electricity and 5G should be the top concern for everyone but sadly, most people don't know about the dangers and how to protect themselves. I thought this easy to read introduction was great and gives tangible steps on how to reduce exposure to this harmful health danger. I learned several new things that I'm excited to implement and the author does a great job of explaining the ins and outs of this problem. Highly recommend.

This was such an amazing book! It was so informative and so well written. I loved that it was easily laid out and simple to follow. I think every woman/person with these issues should read this book, as it's so helpful to learn about our bodies.

The book details conditions that can explain why we might have pain during sex. It lays out the whys, the whats, the whos and the whens. There are so many possibilities as to why sex might hurt, and this book leaves no stone unturned. I love that this topic was covered, because it isn't always an easy topic to delve into. But, we need to know these things in order to feel better and enjoy ourselves, and to also stay healthy. I know it can be embarrassing or even taboo to talk about these things, but it shouldn't be! This book helps with the stereotypes, the myths, the questions and the realities of what we face. This is a guide that is a must read for those struggling with this common issue.

Each author has their pronouns next to their names, which I thought was a great touch. There were female authors, as well as male authors, which I appreciated, despite the fact that this book is geared towards individuals with vaginas. As someone who has suffered from pelvic pain, endometriosis, interstitial cystitis and mast cell activation syndrome, it was refreshing and so appreciated that these topics were discussed in depth. I also loved that the authors made the connection between gut health and pelvic pain, as this isn't often associated but the links are certainly there. There was an anatomy lesson at the beginning of the book, which I thought was great, as we need to know what parts we have to fully understand our bodies and how to adequately help them. Some people with vaginas still don't know and that's okay; we're always learning and there's no shame in leanring even more about our bodies to better help ourselves and live our best lives.

There is a section in the book that discusses trauma (particularly sexual trauma, but also other forms of trauma) and its link to why sex might hurt. I say this as a trigger warning for those who may be bothered by this subject material, but also because I'm so glad this was discussed, as some people with pelvic pain/painful sex may not be aware that there is a strong link between these two. This discussion is a neccesary one and I'm so glad the topic was covered so that others may make that leap and get the help they may need.

Overall, I thought this book was outstanding and so informative. I would highly recommend to anyone! Special thanks to NetGalley and Hachette Go for the advanced review copy of this wonderful book.
