I've read this numerous times. Currently reading the series again on my Kindle Fire classic.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 5★
I own hard and paperback books. Rereading series because it's available to loan for kindle and other ebook format on overdrive.com

I didn't dive into these books when it was first released. I actually started reading them after this book was published. My youngest sister encouraged me to read them. She actually begged for me to read them just so she can have someone to talk to about them. So being a good big sis to her, I succumbed. And now, no thanks to lil sis, I'm addicted to this. Since then, I've reread this series about 4 times counting now. But this time, I've been adding notes to the ebook.
Goblet of Fire is a good book. I found a lot of discrepancies between book and movie. But I like both about the same.

Sparks' "Lucky One" is the first of his books I've read. It was actually pretty good, with some typical Sparks tearjurking. But a happy ending non the less. Love story of a Marine looking for the woman in the good luck photo - Elizabeth. Then there's her story and her spoiled childish ex-husband Keith.

Logan Thibault is just out of the U.S. Marine Corp. He WALKS with his trusty dog Zues in search of the girl in a photo. He WALKS from Colorado to Hampton, North Carolina. A WALK of 1481.45 miles. Now this would be probable if he hitched rides also, but there's no mention of this. Other than this he and his dog are great. They're both heroes and loveable guys.

Elizabeth "Beth" Green is a strong single mother taking care of not just her son, Ben, and her Nana, but also training dogs at their home/ business. The "lucky" photo belonged to her brother - marine died in Iraq (where Logan found the photo). So her disbelief and suspicion of Logan's motives is understandable.

Keith Clayton is a spoiled childish guy. He's a deputy, Dad's the sheriff and grandad's a judge. Keith uses his families connections in order to get what he wants - his ex-wife Beth. He also thinks that he is above the law - takes pervy pictures of travelers and gives threats to any guy Beth tries to date.

The end was a little confusing. It was still quite good. It has closure. I didn't agree with the drastic way the "bad guy" Keith was handled. I really liked the dog being the great hero. I was bummed that the movie didn't have much of the dog. The book and movie was still a pretty good story.

Tom Valeska is my new #BookBoyfriend!!

I loved this friends to lovers romance story! It was sweet and real. Also so funny sometimes. I love Tom Valeska! I kept thinking of Chris Hemsworth whenever Darcy described his perfect muscular body. Loved that this big hunk of a guy had a little Chihuahua named Patty. Made my heart melt even more. I loved all the characters.
This was the perfect to read for the Summertime, quick and steamy. Loved the ending! Sally Thorne’s second book did not disappoint. It was just as fun as her first book, The Hating Game.
