The Love Haters by Katherine Center
I was the fortunate recipient of a coveted “Skip the Line” library loan from my local library’s Libby app last week. Imagine my surprise to find a brand new release from one of my favorite romance authors – Katherine Center! I previously read two other books by Center, and enjoyed them, so I jumped right…
April 2024 Five Star Reads
Better late than never – here are the four books I read in April that I absolutely loved and recommend that you should read! Every one of these books was available for free on the Libby app through my local public library. If you don’t have a library card at your local library, GET ONE!…

A retiring novelist creates a small cemetery for her unfinished manuscripts on a small parcel of land she inherited from her father.

My favorite book of 2024 so far – A scifi novel that reads like contemporary fiction. Annie is a lifelike robot with AI that continues to learn how to be more human, and how to please her owner, Doug.
March 2024 Five Star Reads!
The three books that I rated five stars this month are all so different from each other. A magnificent rom-com, the first book in a paranormal series about immortals, and an American History book about Reconstruction and Jim Crow. This goes to show that reading books out of your “comfort genre” from time to time…
