Great Big Boring Life by Emily Henry

 I just can’t bear to give Julia Whelan 1 star.

Before you sharpen your pitchforks, yes I have read her books before. The lowest rating I gave was 4 stars previously.

This book though? This book is awful. The landfill is too good for it. The story is so freaking boring that I spaced out several times and had to go back and re-read entire sections. The FMC and MMC had no chemistry. They were both as entertaining as drying paint. The old lady’s story isn’t worth the chapters she dragged on and on about it. This book feels phoned in, and if anyone else wrote it, it would be getting dragged. I refuse to give a book a high rating just because of the name on the front cover.

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

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 ...

Blood and Honey by Shelby Mahurin

 I should have stopped at book 1. That’s it. That’s the review.
