Tom Hanks-Every Girl's Dream!

I was lucky enough to get a copy of Waiting for Tom Hanks by Kerry Winfrey through NetGalley.  Berkley published this book on 06/11/19. 💜

Annie is 27 and obsessed with romantic comedies.  Because of her unrealistic expectations, her dating life has been pretty limited.  She's waiting for her very own Tom Hanks.  When a huge romantic comedy rolls into her town to film, Annie has to decide if she can remove the walls she's spent so long building, or risk losing the potential great love of her life.

YOU GUYS.  I am NOT a romantic book fan.  I've said it several times.  That being said, I.LOVED.THIS.BOOK.  I was hooked from the first paragraph I read.  I actually found myself sending random paragraphs to my bookstagram friends who love romantic books because I just loved it so much.  It is so easy to related to Annie.  Because she lost her mother, her support system is made up of her best friend and her uncle.  They are so endearing.  I loved everything about them.  Just wait until you read about her love interests. 💘  

This book was so refreshing and it just felt GOOD to read.  I loved it from the very beginning, and it made me immediately want to binge watch all of my Tom Hanks movies.  Winfrey has built such a sweet world, and I was sad to leave it.  I was given an digital ARC of this book to review, but I was instantly sad I didn't have a physical copy of this book to lend to all of my girlfriends.  I may end up buying this book once my library of unread books shrinks a little.

Overall, I loved this book.  Thank you Kerry Winfrey for introducing me to Annie.  I feel so lucky to have received this book!

Easy 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 Stars for me. GO READ THIS BOOK NOW!

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

I was given a digital copy of One? by Jennifer L. Cahill.  She reached out to me through Twitter, and she was so sweet.  I couldn't wait to dive into her book.💙 The Plot (From Goodreads): It's London in the mid-noughties before Facebook, iPhones and ubiquitous wifi. Zara has just moved to London for her first real job and struggles to find her feet in a big city with no instruction manual. Penelope works night and day in an investment bank with little or no time for love. At twenty-eight she is positively ancient as far as her mother is concerned and the pressure is on for her to settle down as the big 3-0 is looming. Charlie spends night and day with his band who are constantly teetering on the verge of greatness. Richard has relocated to London from his castle in Scotland in search of the one, and Alyx is barely in one place long enough to hold down a relationship let alone think about the future. One? follows the highs and lows of a group of twenty-somethings living i

First Post-Here We Go!

This is still a little insane to me.  Last week I wasn't even thinking a Bookstagram would be possible for me, let alone a blog!  What if I'm not interesting?  What if my reviews are terrible?  What if I actually have BAD taste in books? I guess we're going to find out.  Follow me.  Be patient with me.  Grow with me.  Let's explore as many amazing stories, wonderful authors, and unforgettable books as we can! 💙

Less is more? An honest take on Less, by Andrew Sean Greer.

I finished this book and immediately thought, "I wish this wasn't going to be my first book review."  What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?  Let's see if that's true. The plot is interesting enough.  Arthur Less is a failure.  He's a failed novelist.  He's also a failed lover, proven by the wedding invitation from his ex that shows up in his mail.  The love of his life has found someone else to love.  What does he do, as a functioning adult?  He accepts invitations to participate in literary events around the world in an attempt to avoid the nuptials.  Less travels to Mexico, Italy, Germany, Morocco, India, and Japan in an effort to avoid his grief.  This is a love story, a satirical look at Americans abroad, and an honest, if not painful look at relationships and how they progress over time. Sounds entertaining enough, right?  This book was 260 pages and I felt every single one of them.  I trudged through this book with all the grac
