Book Review: The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes

 *Digital ARC provided through NetGalley

Every time I think I can't possibly love Cat Sebastian's writing even more she has to go and prove me wrong. The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes is the much anticipated follow-up to The Queer Principles of Kit Webb, and it lives up to and transcends expectations. That said, I would recommend reading The Queer Principles of Kit Webb before diving into this book because I think you will understand the story and get the most out of it that way. Trust me, it's no hardship to read the first book. It's excellent. And if you have read it, don't worry, there's plenty of Percy and Kit in this book and they are, of course, delightful.

Let's just get right to it: I loved this book a whole lot. Emily Henry really know how to deliver on beautiful writing, emotional depth, realistic characters, and bright/witty dialogue. Her books always feel so immersive and this one is no different. 

Summary

Nora Stephens is the high-maintenance city girlfriend in every guy-goes-to-a-small-town-and-falls-in-love romance book. She loves her Peloton and her impractical shoes and fancy skincare, and she loves her sister Libby and her agenting job even more. So when her sister drags her to a small North Carolina town, Sunshine Falls, that's the setting of one of her client's books, she's not feeling the need for her own small town romance. And the best part? That's not what this book is! Oh, there's definitely love, but it's with sharp-eyed editor, Charlie Lastra, who's visiting home from NYC to help his parents out. Both of them are city-people who don't quite fit into small town life and they can't help but be drawn together again and again.

Book Review: Something Wilder by Christina Lauren

As a devoted Christina Lauren fan, I knew going into this that I was going to have a good time and I was not disappointed! This book is so much fun and I can see why it's a book that they chose to write during these pandemic times. I mean, almost the entire book takes place outdoors! It's full of adventure, action, wild twists, and a truly swoony romance. If you're a fan of adventures moves like Indian Jones, Tomb Raider, and The Mummy, AND you like romance, you're going to want to pick up this book. 

So here's what you need to know!

The Pitch:

Young lovers are separated for a decade and come back together by chance for an adventure of a lifetime. Emotions run high as Lily and Leo confront their feelings for each other while searching for treasure. There's twists, turns, betrayals, a car chase, coded messages, and kissing -all the good stuff.
