Why Did I Read? I love Miranda Kenneally’s Hundred Oaks series so of course, I needed to continue the series! My Thoughts: I so enjoyed this one!! I loved Maya and her strong personality. She’s so vibrant, you just get sucked into her brilliant energy! I loved her family unit too, which brings me to the other thing I loved so much: seeing Sam and Jordan all these years later!

Juliet’s mother died and she is coping by writing her letters at her grave but who knew someone would find […]
Why Did I Read? I had heard a lot of early praise for it from some fellow bloggers! I was intrigued! My Thoughts: I really like historical fiction and this was such a fun filled romp with Monty and this friends! I like to think of it as… a 17th century spin on the movie Eurotrip with a more serious note. (Has anyone else seen that movie? It’s hilarious, a bit ridiculous but lots of fun and highly enjoyable.)
