I just really really loved this. It's not big classic romance more contemporary fiction with a touch of romance I'd say. But I just fell in love with every character and consistently rooted for everyone to live happily ever after. Also the narration of this audiobook is PERFECT! Eleanor Tomlinson did an absolutely incredible job narrating this like I cannot emphasize enough how much I enjoyed her reading. 10/10 on narration.

OMG. I actually picked this one on a whim because the cover art showed a plus size MMC which i see so seldom and want so often. And then to continue listening and the FMC is the responsible eldest sister that helped raise little siblings in a way that affected childhood and sense of freedom and therefore doesn't want kids (haha ouch that's personal.) This book was so close to being perfectly, exactly what I always want in a rom com but oh boy that stand up was rotten. I did not hold it against Melvin cause he is sooooo lovable. Also really loved the narrators for the audiobook. Long story short it still stands at the tip top of favorite romances for me.

Definitely my least favorite of the Greer and Sarah universe of books so far, but not the worst thriller I've read by any means. Just felt like the pay off was just OK in the end. Did really like Jessica as a character though. The dog is 100% safe the entire book in case you needed to know before reading.

At first I was like this book is kind of annoying cause the only thing the author knows about people from Spain is that they drink sangria. But then Noah got rejected and went to THERAPY and I was like oh OK. Honestly pretty good spicy scenes.
Eventually you find out Noah is just a little sweetie pie and then he cuts off his parents

Wowowowowow! I'm not a huge Sci fi person but this was goooood. So very readable, quick pace and dual POV. Lots of lovable characters which is a need for me to really enjoy a bigger book like this. Big recommend for Sci fi readers and non-Sci fi readers. It's got mystery, horror, a bit of a love story.

Sooooooo cute. I loved Redford. I also like characters realizing personal flaws and going to therapy/realizing difficult situations immediately. Audiobook had a great narrator. Definitely gonna read about the other sisters. Spicy scenes were pretty top notch.

This was a really great book and I know I'm like over a decade behind. I personally had a lot of trouble pushing myself through it but that's just cause I'm a big dumb dumb who has trouble reading anything framed like non fiction even if it's fiction. It just read like non fiction and so for me maybe not my favorite. Could have been written today though.

This was bon Appétit the romance. Actually very little romance haha and a lot of crushing with a small payoff at the end. The characters were really cute though. And if you remember when bon Appétit was at its height in popularity on YouTube but then a bunch of stuff came out about general like discriminatory practices and all the best people left. That's this book but more queer.

This was definitely more thriller than horror which is not necessarily what I was expecting from the initial description. But it ended up being a pretty quick twisty thriller. It throws you in a lot of directions and in the end it's really a question of was it the
carbon monoxide all along or does this house bring out the worst in people
Honestly I was just begging Sarah to drink some water throughout. The angry cat was my favorite character.

Beautiful book. I was fully lost in it for hours at a time, just living in their world with them. The writing is so immersive and really captures something I have trouble describing but that I don't get to feel often from books. These felt like real people living real lives.
