Still a quiet month as far as reading goes.... Here's what I managed to read....I shouldn't complain about the lack of quantity as the books I did read were really good and none have made my wallbanger lost cause list.
Watermelon by Marian Keyes - 9/10* - I can't believe how long I waited before reading this book! I absolutely loved this story! The characters are engaging and easy to relate to and empathize with. Claire is a woman who is a survivor. After giving birth to her daughter, her bastard of a husband tells her he is in love with someone else and is leaving her. Claire manages to pick up the pieces of her life and begin to heal with the help of her family in Dublin and a new love interest. What I found interesting is how quickly Claire's husband, James, tries to worm his way back into her life and his complete and utter lack of remorse over what he did. Fortunately, he doesn't get away with it. The story has many layers embedded within the main plot that were truly an entertaining experience to discover. I've long enjoyed the work of this author and Watermelon further cements Marian Keyes as one of my favorites. Read it and let me know what you thought! Match Me If You Can by Susan Elizabeth Phillips - 10/10* - Awesome story and a great revisit with characters from her earlier "Chicago Stars" stories. This author has a great voice that draws the reader into the story and gives the reader a sense of personally knowing the characters.
