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.

Dear Girl by Aija Mayrock

5 star This is a poetry book for women. It deals with a lot of different topics such as the #me-to0 movement, the right for a woman to decide who she wants to share her body with, as well as, a woman's right to be heard, just to name a few. I really liked that the book was narrated by the author because it made it feel more impactful coming from her the way she wanted it to come across.

The Project by Courtney Summers

5 star This book gives you an inside look at what it's like to be involved with a colt and the way a colt leader can manipulate other people's minds and souls to the point where they question everything about themselves and the way the world works. This story follows two different timelines involving two sisters, Bea and Lo, You get to read about the path that each sister takes, past and present. This book deals heavily with religion. I personally am not a huge fan of this but I understand why it needed to be in the book. I really did enjoy reading this book. I give it a 5-star rating and I plan on buying a copy when it comes out. Thank you, NetGalley, for putting this book in the read now section. This book is one of my most anticipated released books for 2021

Better Together by Christine Riccio

DNF at 18% DNF at 18% This book just did not click with me. Both of the main characters just annoyed me beyond belief. There were certain things about the plot that bothered me. I really wanted to enjoy this book because I loved the movie "Parent Trap", as a child, as well as, the movie "Freaky Friday". Overall, I just could not get into this book no matter how hard I tried.
