Romantic Comedy

Full transparency, I’ve never read a Curtis Sittenfeld book and I honestly thought this was a male author so when it seems to take a more feminist stance on topics, I was like ‘uhh wait a minute’. However, I think I’ll be adding the rest of Sittenfeld’s books to my TBR, because this was a…

Let me preface this by saying I’m not the biggest fan of Gothic reads. Gothic books, tend to lean more heavily on a strong atmospheric vibe and less on the actual plot. As a huge plot based reader, this makes most Gothic reads a miss for me. But a couple blurbs about The Cloisters said…

One Italian Summer

I read Rebecca Serle’s The Dinner List a few years ago when it was a Book of the Month pick and I loved it. Then In Five Years came out and once again, Serle was able to toy with my emotions once again. At this point she’s an auto-buy author for me and if you…
