June Reading Wrap Up!

 

For the month of June I ended up reading 10 books in which 3 were new, 1 was a known to me author, and the rest were rereads for a total of 3638 pages. 

Breaking the Dark by Lisa Jewel (360 Pages) is a Jessica Jones Marvel Crime Novel published in 2024 which was a modern day Dorian Grey tale and Jessica is a downtrodden detective with so so powers and never uses them to solve the crime.  2 stars as it failed to live up to expectations

Swan Song by Elin Hilderbrand, the 4th book in the Nantucket trilogy which James picked up for me at Target on a whim.  It's the last book in the series which was full of back tory, an unknown narrator, a new couple trying to bilk every one for money and things, thinking they could get away with it. The ending was very anticlimatic.  2 stars as it failed to live up to expectations.

Unlikely Story by Ali Rosen (306), published this year. Ali's in love with J, her editor, who she's never met. She also has a contentious relationship with her neighbor who turns out to be J. There were so many little hints throughout the story that I pretty much figured it out way before Ali did.  3 Stars

Resorted to reading old friends which are books by Nora Roberts, my go to comfort read and always five stars. 

Three Island Sisters Trilogy with Nell and Zack in Dance Upon the Air, Ripley and Mac in Heaven and Earth, and Mia and Sam in Face the Fire.  Then Born in Trilogy with Born in Fire, Born in Ice, and Born in Shame.
