Oh, what a gem of a book! ❤️Review ⬇️ . I read this lovely over the weekend and my heart is so happy! Whether you’ve read The Kiss Quotient or not, whether you’re a romance fan or not, I highly recommend this beautiful story. . The hero: Khai thinks he has a heart of stone because he doesn’t feel emotions the way most people do. He’s autistic, and has decided that he’s better off on his own than risking hurting others with his inability to feel or relate. . The heroine: Esme is a young, single mother living in Vietnam when she meets Khai’s mother, who has come to “find him a bride.” She sees something special in Esme and invites her to come live in the US with Khai and see if she can get him to fall in love. Esme wants to make a better life for herself and her daughter, so she agrees. . The story: so much sweetness! Khai doesn’t think he’s capable of love, and Esme doesn’t think he’ll love her if he knows her real self. But as they slowly spend time together, the trust (and attraction) grows. I chuckled, I got tears in my eyes, and finished with a smile on my face. . Personally, I think I enjoyed this more than The Kiss Quotient. The steam level is moderate and felt like the right amount to me. My only complaint was that by around 2/3rds of the way through, our hero and heroine go through some angsty stuff and we don’t get to see them together much. They are SO good together that I wanted more, especially toward the end. . But overall, an immensely satisfying romance novel with depth and heart. Definitely read the author’s note at the end wherein she talks about her mother’s immigrant experiences helping to shape Esme’s character. Really beautifully done! Helen Hoang has solidified her spot as a must-buy author for me and I can’t wait to read her next book. . Have you read this one? Is it on your list? . . . . . . . #thebridetest #helenhoang #booknerd #bookshark #bookofthemonth @bookofthemonth #romancenovel #bookreview #bookstagram #bookphotography #summerreading #beachread #amreading #readersofinsta #alwaysreading #bookitwithbradeigh

Book mail for thriller lovers! (Thanks #partner @penguinrandomhouse Dutton) ⬇️ . . STOLEN THINGS by debut author RH Herron - about a 911 dispatcher who answers a call and, to her horror, it’s her teenaged daughter on the line, which plunges the entire family into their own nightmare. The author is a former 911 dispatcher herself and loosely based the story on a local scandal where police department officers sexually trafficked the underage daughter of a dispatcher. This sounds riveting and chilling, and I can’t wait to read. Out August 20! . . REPUTATION - by Sara Shepard, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Little Liars! A tight-knit college town is rocked to its core when a hacker dumps 40,000 people's e-mails—the entire faculty, staff, students, alums—onto an easily searchable database. Rumors and affairs immediately leak, but things turn explosive when Kit Manning's handsome husband, Dr. Greg Strasser, is found murdered. Kit's sister, Willa, returns for the funeral, setting foot in a hometown she fled fifteen years ago, after a night she wishes she could forget. As an investigative reporter, Willa knows something isn't right about the night Greg was killed, and she's determined to find the truth. What she doesn't expect is that everyone has something to hide. And with a killer on the loose, Willa and Kit must figure out who killed Greg before someone else is murdered. This sounds exactly like my cup of tea and I’m dying to read it. It doesn’t release until December 3, so put it on your list for a winter read! . . Do either of these sound like something you’d love? . . . . #reputationnovel #stolenthings #thrillernovels #suspensenovel #bookmail #crimenovels #tbr #amreading #readersofinsta #readersofinstagram #bibliophile #booknerd #bookshark #bookstagram #bookphotography

Who likes thought-provoking, multigenerational historical fiction spanning decades? 🤗 {#partner @atriabooks } . Synopsis: Eve Whalen, privileged child of an old-money Atlanta family, meets Daniella Gold in the fall of 1962, on their first day at Belmont College. Paired as roommates, the two become fast friends. Daniella, raised in Georgetown by a Jewish father and a Methodist mother, has always felt caught between two worlds. But at Belmont, her bond with Eve allows her to finally experience a sense of belonging. That is, until the girls’ expanding awareness of the South’s systematic injustice forces them to question everything they thought they knew about the world and their places in it. . Eve veers toward radicalism—a choice pragmatic Daniella cannot fathom. After a tragedy, Eve returns to Daniella for help in beginning anew, hoping to shed her past. But the past isn’t so easily buried, as Daniella and Eve discover when their daughters are endangered by secrets meant to stay hidden. . Spanning more than thirty years of American history, from the twilight of Kennedy’s Camelot to the beginning of Bill Clinton’s presidency, We Are All Good People Here is “a captivating…meaningful, resonant story” (Emily Giffin, author of All We Ever Wanted) about two flawed but well-meaning women clinging to a lifelong friendship that is tested by the rushing waters of history and their own good intentions. . . This is giving me major Mrs Everything vibes! Super excited to finish this one. Releases August 6. . . . . . . . #weareallgoodpeoplehere #historicalfiction #amreading #bookstagram #bookphotography #amreading #readersofinsta #readersofinstagram #bibliophile #booknerd #bookshark

Lots of cheese. 😂 . . . . . #unreadbooks @bookofthemonth #thebridetest #godsofjadeandshadow #fashionvictim #severance #themermaidandmrshancock #crossherheart #labradoodle #labradoodlesofinstagram #miniaustralianlabradoodle #booknerd #bookstagram #readersofinsta #readersofinstagram #bookofthemonth #botmclub #bibliophile #bookphotography
