You've Reached Sam by Dustin Thao

                                                                         

5 star

This is the first book this author has written and let me tell you, he hit it out of the ball park!!!!!!!  It was a home run & an absolute 5 star. This beautiful story between Julie and Sam made me sob uncontrollably..  Although the story is written in present day, we do get to see glimpses of the relationship between Julie & Sam prior to his death.  As Julie mourns the loss of Sam she decides to call his cellphone, just to hear his voice one last time but is shocked when he actually answer his cellphone.  Julie & Sam quickly fall back into their routine of talking every day.  At some point in time they both realize that this could not continue to go on forever & that it needed to end so they could both move on in life & in death.  It was extremely difficult for me to see them make that final decision.  Thank you NetGalley & Wednesday Books for giving me an eARC.  I 100% recommend this book.

Tales of Nash by Ann Worthington

5 Star This is the author's debut book. I want to start by saying that I absolutely loved this story immensely. This book had me sitting at the edge of my seat. Due to certain circumstances, that almost all teenagers face these days, Nash's mother had to send him away to live with his grandfather and leave all of his friends and problems behind so he could wipe the slate clean and start all over. Nash had a very difficult time being away from his home and friends. Nash's relationship with his grandfather was very rocky at first but a bond slowly grew between Nash and his grandfather which was unbelievably heartwarming. The relationship that developed between them reminds me of my own relationship with both of my grandfathers. I like how the then/now chapters are both so compelling. Unfortunately, Nash goes through a tragic and heartwrenching experience with his grandfather. This tragic event changes Nash's life forever

The Shadows by Alex North Narrated by Hannah Arterton; John Heffernan

  DNF at 51% I started this book in 2020 and read 51%. I have finally decided not to continue reading it. I did not care for the plot nor did I understand it. I realized that the more I read this book the more confused I became. I really wanted to love this book but I think the author is just not for me.

Chess: book 2 in vampires in wonderland by Candace Robinson & Amber R. Duell

                                                                                                                                        5 star This is the second book in "The Vampires in Wonderland" book series. In this book, we follow Chess, the son of The Queen of Hearts, and Ever, The White Queen and sister of Rav. We also have dual perspectives, like in the first book, which helps us because we are following two very different people. Ever is a good person. She loves and care's about her friends. Chess, on the other hand, is not a nice person & only cares about himself & his mother. I love the way Chess keeps saying sexual innuendos to...
