Drama Drama Drama by Cori Cooper

Drama Drama DramaDrama Drama Drama by Cori Cooper
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I so fell in love with this book. The story is about Carmen who has to move from a big city to a small town in her high school years. It is not an easy move and Carmen has to go through the transformation, the emotions, the teen drama and has to face the challenge of not being accepted in a new school. The book has everything, from comic incidents to building inner resilience. There is teen romance, high school drama and finally those kind hearted angels who come forward to embrace someone new. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and would recommend it to everyone.

Formula one Noel by Christina Braver

Formula One Noel (Perry Harbor)Formula One Noel by Christina Braver
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book took me by surprise. From the summary, I thought it would be a love clash between an over achieving doctor and a Formula 1 Driver , and there would be a lot of thrill , car races and adventure. Actually it turned out to be something different. This is a cute love story between two very successful people who seem to want some real connections in their lives and when they accidentally find it one night , they hold onto it very tight . Especially he is not willing to let go. But will it be happily ever after from both sides ? I enjoyed this story, it’s a more on the steamier side for me but a good read .

The Mating Truth by Brooke May

The Mating Truth (Long Claw Pride Book 4)The Mating Truth by Brooke May
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The Mating Truth is the fourth book in the Long Claw Pride series by Brooke May. The book follows a Mountain shifter community called the Long Claw clan . The book is the fourth in the series , I had not read the previous three but it wasn’t very difficult to follow the plot , though there are certain bits which I had to assume were part of the original storyline.

The story is about two pre fated mates , Harper and Afton and their calling . Harper is trying to recover from a cruel past and Afton is in the middle of protecting his family when they are united for their mating call . The book has all fantasy and paranormal romance elements woven into it , hot steamy romance , family bonding and community development . If you like such books , you wouldn’t be disappointed with this read .

Road to Paradise by Kelly Fletcher

Road to Paradise (Southern Sunsets, #1)Road to Paradise by Kelly Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a beautiful book, I picked it up because it was a small town romance. It started off as a typical ambitious heroine stepping into a small town to take over the company and then fall in love with the place story, but what bumped me over were the characters.
We have read books where the corporate heroine falls in love with the country side cow boy or a macho farmer, but the family she interacts with is a delicate bunch, which demands that life has to slow down.
We take so much for granted in our fast paced life, but if we are to live with certain neurodivergent conditions or health issues, life will have to slow down for the family. But will an outsider make the sacrifice? Would she able to understand the situation and take on the challenges?
This is such a beautiful story full of meaning and hope. I really would recommend this book.

Blackmailed by Holly Bush

Blackmailed (The Browns of Butcher's Hill, #2)Blackmailed by Holly Bush
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am a fan of mysteries and I love historic mysteries especially because the means of doing and solving the crime are a lot more logical than scientific. I did not read the first installment, so the characters were all established, but we jump straight to action.
Philip’s sister finds a man murdered outside the shop she works at. She approaches her brother to solve the crime. Virginia west wants to return the favor to Philip Brown by assisting him to solve the murder. Together they embark on a perilous journey. As they unveil one mystery, they find more and more danger lurking round the corner. Can they solve the mystery and escape unscathed? It is a very captivating read and I enjoyed every bit of it.

The Moon Gift: A Moon Festival TaleThe Moon Gift: A Moon Festival Tale by Anders Roseberg
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a very delightful book which teaches kids about the value of compassion, empathy and selflessness. It is a Chinese folktale narrated with beautiful illustrations. A mysterious Jade emperor sends four animals on a mission, and when they are presented with the challenge, each animal goes far and above to display kindness to a stranger. But one makes the ultimate sacrifice. It’s a lovely book about giving, and it also gives an insight into Chinese culture and the Mid-Autumn festival. I really enjoyed it.
