Review: The Pumpkin Spice Cafe - Book #1 Dream Harbour Series - Laurie Gilmore - August 2023

I had been so excited to read this series as it has been quite popular and also just screamed a cozy feel to it and OMG that's exactly what it was, this is the type of read that you can read without having to think too deeply about and was just a book version of a Hot Cocoa or in this case a Pumpkin Spice Latte. Jeanie was busy working in the city as a PA right until her boss had a heart attack. Jeanie realized that she had worked so hard and she had no friends, and if she died - nobody would come to find her until it was too late. This made her have an epiphany and headed to the small town where her Aunt Dorothy lived. Here in town, Aunt Dot owns The Pumpkin Spice Cafe and has decided to sell it to Jeanie while she goes off traveling. Strange things have been happening though with the cafe and when Jeanie talks to it at the town meeting, she is paired with the hot farmer aka Logan to do a stake-out and see what is happening with the cafe. As the book goes along, we see sparks fly between Jeanie and Logan. After Logan got burned when his big gesture marriage proposal, he has cold feet and trust issues. Can Jeanie prove to Logan that she's not going anywhere and wants to make Dream Harbor her hometown? If you love small-town romances and TV series, like Gilmore Girls with Luke's Diner - then you will fit right at home with Laurie Gilmore's Dream Harbor Series. I am now looking forward to reading the rest of the series as I have also on my bookshelf The Christmas Tree Farm and the Cinnamon Bun Bookstore.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

Review: The Hoodie Girl - Yuen Wright - August 2021 Now and again, I will come across a book that I have never heard of and the author is also unknown to me and I will give them a go. This weekend, for me that was The Hoodie Girl by Yuen Wright. As readers know, I just absolutely adore the Library App - Libby and find so many awesome reads on there. In The Hoodie Girl we meet Wren who loves to try and be invisible, she is just skating by on life and has this obsession with her Red Hoodie - it's a comfort thing we later learn as a few years ago, Wren was in a car crash with her Dad and sister Emma. Wren was the only survivor and now suffers panic attacks, nightmares, and bad anxiety. At school, she is the heads-down type of girl and has one best friend Mia. That is until one day, she is bumped into by Asher Reed -he is the school's Mr. Popular and captain of the Hockey Team. As the week goes on, Asher needs to know the girl's name and soon he learns that she is none other...
