Historia
Lillie Silva knew life as an empty nester would be hard after her only child left for college, but when her husband abruptly dumps her for another woman just as her son leaves, her world comes crashing down. Besides the fact that this announcement is a complete surprise (to say the least), what shocks Lillie most is that she isn't...heartbroken. She's furious. Lillie has loved her life on Cape Cod, but as a mother, wife and nurse-midwife, she's used to caring for other people...not taking care of herself.

2 Strong Female Characters
Revisado: 11-02-24
I enjoyed the thorough characterization of the 2 main females, both very different but strong. Their lives cross over an affair that ironically puts them in an even closer situation.

Historia
Lark Smith has always had a plan for her life: find a fantastic guy, create a marriage as blissful as her parents’, pop out a couple of kids, and build a rewarding career as an oncologist. Things aren’t going so well. For one, the guy didn’t work out. Theoretically, she’d love to find someone else, but it hasn’t happened. Two, she’s just been transferred out of Oncology for being too emotional. (Is it her fault she’s a weeper?) Three, her parents just split up. Deviating from the plan was … well, not in the plan. A potential solution comes from the foul-tempered surgeon Lorenzo Santini.

An empowering book!
Revisado: 10-12-24
I liked that there were 3 storylines, each through the voice of a different woman. Lark, Joy, and Ellie move on from tough times through their own efforts.

Historia
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Fun Variety of Best Man Speeches!
Revisado: 10-04-24
About a man who hesitates about friendships, but comes to realize how many he really has. Listening to the variety of speeches that he has written is a hoot!

Historia
It's 1999, and Eira Hart and Ru Tattersall are set up to co-host The Lonely Harts Club, a new late-night radio show to help New Yorkers find love. It's a last chance attempt for both Eira, expert in Celtic mythology and amateur Welsh matchmaker, and Ru, once-hot-shot Aussie DJ, to achieve their New York dreams. The thing is, you either click with a co-host, or you don’t. It’s a bit like falling in love. There’s co-host chemistry, or there isn’t. With the countdown to a new millennium, it feels like the world as they know it is about to end.

Great Chemistry
Revisado: 08-14-24
The characters were likable and some had great chemistry. I thought that the radio show that the book centers on might be silly, but it felt real. I’m glad that I gave this book a try!

Uplifting
Revisado: 07-07-24
A difficult topic (death of a spouse), but with the focus on living, both before and after the event. Uplifting vs, pure doom & gloom. Kristan Higgins has the best character development in her books!

Historia
When two Stanford graduate students set out to create a new kind of cigarette that wouldn’t kill them, they didn’t foresee all the obstacles that lay ahead — or the powerful forces their invention would unleash. Nearly 10 years after the launch of the JUUL, Backfired: The Vaping Wars asks: Could e-cigarettes have been the solution to one of the world’s most pressing public health problems—or was this technology doomed to introduce a whole new generation to nicotine, and end up perpetuating an intractable addiction?

Learned more than I expected
Revisado: 06-23-24
I had been following the story of Juul, but didn’t know about the products that preceded Juul or followed Juul, so this was an eyeopener. Also interesting to hear about the changing FDA regulations for vapes.

Superheroes with 401ks

A book about superheroes, but with 9-5 jobs. Really fun! The main character finds her niche as the administrative assistant for a superhero company. A book for the grown-up superhero fan.

Historia
Divorce attorney Harper James can't catch a break. Bad enough that she runs into her ex-hubby, Nick, at her sister's destination wedding, but now, by a cruel twist of fate, she's being forced to make a cross-country road trip with him. And her almost-fiancé back at home is not likely to be sympathetic.

Being one of the guys isn't all it's cracked up to be. So when journalist Chastity O'Neill returns to her hometown, she decides it's time to start working on some of those feminine wiles.

While doing a story on local heroes, she meets a hunky doctor, and things start to look up. Now there's only one problem: Trevor Meade, her first love and the one man she's never quite gotten over....

Historia
Emma London never thought she had anything in common with her grandmother Genevieve London. The regal old woman came from wealthy and bluest-blood New England stock, but that didn't protect her from life's cruelest blows. Genevieve rose from the ashes of grief and built a fashion empire that was respected the world over, even when it meant neglecting her other son. When Emma's own mother died, her father abandoned her on his mother's doorstep. Genevieve took Emma in and reluctantly raised her - until Emma got pregnant her senior year of high school.

Layered story lines, good character development
Revisado: 02-10-24
The story lines were rich and layered upon each other. There were 3 main characters, a grandmother, her granddaughter, and her great granddaughter. The grandmother had dealt with a lot of loss in her life, first a young son went missing, then her husband died, followed by a falling out with the granddaughter, then not getting to know her great granddaughter. She receives a life-limiting diagnosis, then decides to regain a relationship with her granddaughter and to get to know her great granddaughter. The growing relationships between them are the main storyline. Plus, the other characters in the book are also well developed, as are their relationships with the main characters. The book kept my interest throughout. Minus 1 performance point for characters Clark & Miller sounding too much alike.
