Throw in some romance and we have a solid 4 star book. Not my favorite Kristin Hannah, but still good!...more
4.25 - Another Elin in the books! This one is a bit heavier/more serious than her usual vibe- not my favorite by her, but still good! If you read it, 4.25 - Another Elin in the books! This one is a bit heavier/more serious than her usual vibe- not my favorite by her, but still good! If you read it, highly recommended reading the “Author’s Note” at the back of the book, gives a bit more insight to why she chose the summer of ‘69!...more
3.5 - very similar vibe to the first book, but with an added trope that not a lot of people love (I don’t want to spoil anything.) The writing in thes3.5 - very similar vibe to the first book, but with an added trope that not a lot of people love (I don’t want to spoil anything.) The writing in these is just way too over descriptive, to the point that it makes them almost cringey? And they could probably be 100 pages shorter without all of the extra words. Idk if I have it in me to finish the rest of the series… but I also want them all on my bookshelf…...more

2.5 - A story of 3 friends trying to save their childhood summer camp. This has amazing reviews here on GR so I had reallyyyyy high hopes, but I just 2.5 - A story of 3 friends trying to save their childhood summer camp. This has amazing reviews here on GR so I had reallyyyyy high hopes, but I just didn't like it! It felt very randomly pieced together and at times would flip back and forth between then and now in the middle of a story, so it made it hard to keep track of what was happening. I really really wish I liked this because the whole premise was right up my alley, but it was not it IMO....more

Two women living two totally different and separate lives are brought together in a pub on the same night because they share the same birthday. One of them is a nut job and the story goes from there. Different than most thrillers I’ve read, but I needed more from the ending! Solid 4...more
