We Three Kings by Kristen Bailey 

US pub date - 10/14/24

4.5 stars, rated up

We Three Kings was the feel good, heartwarming to the nth degree,  holiday/Christmas cozy found family and romance novel I didn’t know I needed!

I read this over two days and absolutely loved it - it really turned out to be one of my best fun / feel-good novels of the year ❤️

This was my first time reading the author, and I can’t wait to read more. 

A full recommendation from me! 

Thank you to Storm Publishing and NetGalley for the DRC

She’s famous. He hasn’t a clue who she is.

I’m in London, in disguise, trying to hide from the tabloids, when I slam into a wall.

Except it’s not a wall. It’s a hot hunk of British man.

And I just poured scorching hot coffee all over him.

He goes from burn victim to my fiancé in three days flat. It’s all fake to divert tabloid attention away from my recent breakup with my longtime boyfriend-turned-traitor.

Except it doesn’t feel fake. The way he looks at me makes me shiver. When he touches me, I’m molten lava.

Neither of us is looking for anything serious.

Except…did I tell you how hot he looks playing naked Twister? He might just be husband material.

For real.

A #standalone #FakeRelationshipRomance in the #DoctorsSeries.

Chapter 25-27! Inspiration found me early this morning despite the hardships of this month! Still hoping to finish strong. If I don't finish at least I have a good start to a novel.

Blurb:

Being a college freshman is an exciting time, especially for one Cora Worthington. With no college major declared, Cora finds her heart on the tailwinds of a bad breakup with high school ex, Spencer.

As the fall semester begins, an unlikely meeting leads Cora to have feelings for her world history professor, Blake Oakley.

When Blake reveals his hidden past to Cora her heart gets entangled with his. Can Cora secretly date a college professor and not get caught or will their relationship be her downfall?

Happy Publication Day to all the books out today. I know I reviewed many, including When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill. Such a gem of a women’s empowerment story. I loved the fantasy angle this story took. . Can you find the dragon on this cover? Isn’t it gorgeous? Are there any books coming out today that you’re excited about? . . . . #allthebooksmay22 #whenwomenweredragons #kellybarnhill #doubledaybooks #doubleday #womenreading #womenempowerment #womensupportingwomen #womenfiction #chicklit #chicklitreads #chicklitbooks #fantasybooks #fantasy #dystopian #dragons #fantasyreads #fantasyreader #fantasyreaders #tessatalksbooks #bookblogger #bookbloggersofinstagram #bookbloggersofig #bookbloggerlife #netgalley #netgalleyreads #netgalleyreview #netgalleyreviewer #netgalleyarc #netgalleyreader (at Lake Davidson) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdGUgicLfaR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🌸 #toberead 🌸 QOTD: what’s a book still on your TBR? This is one of mine. My mom loves Sophie Kinsella and told me to read this years ago. Obviously, it takes me a bit to get through my TBR. 😂 But also, I love this movie! Outside of being essentially a shopaholic myself, it’s pretty great. 🤪 the movie really is cute. 🌸Tags #confessionsofashopaholic #bookstomovies #sophiekinsella #romcom #chicklitbooks #chicklitreads #romancenovels #bookishlover #bookishgirl https://www.instagram.com/p/CcisYnPro01/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Je pourrais le regarder pendant des heures. 🤩 Connaissez-vous ça avoir peur d'être fière de vous? Peur que tout s'arrête? Peur que ce sentiment disparaisse? C'est un peu ce que je vis avec cette belle aventure qui ne fait que commencer. Mon nom...à moi...sur un livre! Cette jeune fille avec des difficultés scolaires, qui apportait des notes de 40%, 42%, 45% à la maison. Cette jeune ado qui a triplé son secondaire 1. Incapable de retenir la matière... Cette jeune femme qui par chance un certain jour, a pris son courage à deux mains pour tenter de lire un chick lit...même si elle croyait qu'elle allait être aussi stupide pour retenir l'histoire qu'elle l'était pour son école. Cette femme aujourd'hui, qui peut dire qu'elle n'est pas plus stupide que personne. Qui tranquillement fait la paix avec son passé, avec les blessures qu'elle s'est elle-même infligée en se dénigrant constamment. Je ne suis pas mes notes scolaires. Je ne suis pas mes difficultés d'apprentissage. Je ne suis pas le TDA. Je suis moi...en évolution...en recherche de qui je suis vraiment. Mais avant tout...je suis fière de ce que j'ai accomplis!🥂 . #fiere #livre #livres #livrestagram #ecrire #ecrireunlivre #editeur #auteure #auteurequebecoise #accomplissement #perseverance #chicklit #chicklitreads #novelchicklit #karma #spiritualité #dating #amour #rituels https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsojr_BAKJB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x0luowcocz6e

🌟🌟Happy pubday to So We Meet Again by Suzanne Park! This will be The Page Ladies next book club read! Thank you The Book Club Cook Book & Avon Books for providing us with our next group read! So We Meet Again by Suzanne Park When up-and-coming investment banker Jess Kim is passed over for a promotion, laid off in a virtual meeting, and then overhears why (“she’s already being overpaid anyway for a woman” and “Asians are worker bees, not someone who can drum up new deals”) she delivers an “eff you guys” speech and storms out of the building. Not sure what’s next, she moves back home to Tennessee with her domineering Korean mom, who tries to set her up with her pastor’s son Daniel Choi, an M&A lawyer by day and a successful video game streamer by night. Turns out he’s swoony and smart, not the awkward preacher’s kid she remembers. With his help, Jess launches a Korean cooking YouTube channel focused on easy meal prep for busy professionals. All is going well until her mom walks on the show mid-live recording and argues about cooking technique. While she hates being berated by her mother in front of the world, it actually works in their favor—they go viral! Soon her cooking channel becomes an actual media company and brand. When a client is suddenly interested in buying Jess out, she finds herself sitting across the table from the very investment firm she quit not so long ago. But there’s just one other problem: Daniel, the guy whose been helping her and that she’s been falling for, is the firm’s new general counsel. #galleymatch #diversebooks #chicklitreads #contemporarybook #romancereads #avonbooks #bookclubbookpick #pubday #newreleasebook #ThePageLadies #lovetoread #bookstagram #bookrecommendation (at Cleveland, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSH3AB4r9xb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Love Story by Lindsey Kelk 

US pub date - 9//17/24

3.5 stars, rated up 

Having trouble sleeping (falling asleep at an earlier hour than 4 am, hot flashes waking me mostly) thanks to perimenopause has been giving me headaches during the day, to the point where this particular day’s headache made me vomit and feel generally like garbage. This was the day that I began Lindsey Kelk’s newest novel Love Story. 

So I started this one because I knew if anything would make me feel better on this day, it was this new book (it did help). 

*instalove

*enemies to lovers 

*a capital ‘B’ for banter 

*forced proximity

*third act issues/breakup

What I didn’t love - 

*secondary characters - many of them were such jerks that I was aggravated because Sophie didn’t put some boundaries in place

*the consistent TikTok / social media mentions 

*instalove (sort of) 

*the ending - this really needed an epilogue as it just felt so abrupt after the buildup of the story 

Ms Kelk is an autoread author for me but this one wasn’t my favorite. Absolutely looking forward to reading more in the future.

Thank you to Harper360 and NetGalley for the DRC

SECRET LIFE OF A HOLLYWOOD LOVE & SEX ADDICT by Brianne Davis is on SALE for .99 this weekend only! Grab your copy now! Link in bio. Add this book to your #TBR pile on #Goodreads! ABOUT THE BOOK: "A powerful, raw and vulnerable read.”—Olivia Munn, actress, The Newsroom "Unflinchingly candid. Unspeakably sexy. And oh, so curiously entertaining."—Steve Antin, Golden Globe winner, Burlesque Imagine if Sex and the City's Samantha discovered she was an addict and her drug of choice was MEN. Go on a hilarious, inspiring, and at times, shocking journey as Roxanne conquers her fears, changes her ways, gets closer to healthy relationships and begins loving herself a little more each day. After years of working as an image-obsessed actress in Hollywood, Roxanne finds herself at rock bottom from a disease that is anything but glamorous. In her first year of recovery, Roxanne has to take accountability for her past. From tales of being mistaken for a prostitute at the Hotel Bel-Air to botching a threesome attempt with an A-list celebrity, she must face the truth about herself and stop playing the victim. Roxanne's odyssey of using sex and love—as destructive and beguiling as an alcoholic reaching for a bottle—is a veritable rollercoaster of ups and downs, laughter and tears, and a true testament to facing your absolute truth and conquering your fears. Secret Life of a Hollywood Sex & Love Addict has the vibrant, relatable vibe of chick lit, the soul-baring honesty of a memoir and the wisdom of a self-help book. So take a front-row seat into this complex world and the 10 RULES Roxanne learns along the way. #secretlife #secretlifenovel #briannedavis #secretlifepodcast #kindleunlimited #kindlebooks #bookstagram #booklovers #chicklit #chicklitreads #mentalhealth #addictionrecovery #rockstarbooktours #bookstagram #book #reading #booklover #bookworm #bookish #read #bookstagrammer #booknerd #bookaddict #bibliophile #booksofinstagram Hosted by @jaimerockstarbooktours https://www.instagram.com/p/CMC_nHMguFX/?igshid=4i71uil8mw7o

Happy Monday!! What are some books that have been on your TBR shelf forever? I've got lots of older chick lit/ romantic comedy books back when I wasn't quite full blown ready for the genre. I've read one book by Jill Mansell on my e-reader. Fun fact: I actually bought the first two books on the right side by the yellow flower in Dublin, Ireland back when I went on that trip. I had to go into a bookshop over seas and buy something. *** #bookstagram #tbrshelf #tbrpile #chicklitreads #romanticcomedy #romancebookblogger #booksiown #jillmansell https://www.instagram.com/p/CCl3ypggSU0/?igshid=ewa4xiadbeji

Good Monday morning! I don’t know about you but I need more coffee! ☕️ (QOTD) What was the last country you visited (other than the one you live in)? (AOTD) I live in the US and a few years ago I actually visited a few countries in one trip - Spain, Portugal, France, and England. It was such a fun trip! We are starting to think about where we want to go next. I would love to see more of the Mediterranean. Today, I am starting a read along of Ten Years by Pernille Hughes. In it one of the main characters- Charlie - immediately takes off for the Americas after his fiancé’s death. He is so torn with grief, he feels a need to be somewhere not full of memories to help him heal. While Becca- the other main character- takes the loss of her best friend with equal pain but instead focuses on her career with a new drive. These two characters really don’t like each other and it is easy for the reader to see they never have. . . . . #tenyearsreadalong #tenyears #pernellehughes #onemorechapter #over30blogger #womensfiction #chicklit #chicklitreads #chicklitbooks #readersofinstagram #readers #readersofig #readersgonnaread #readerslife #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #books #bibliophile #bookaholic #booklover #bookaddict #booknerd #bookblogger #bookcommunity #bookphotography #bookobsessed #bookstagrammer #booklovers #bookrecommendations (at Lake Davidson) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChkA4o_L16M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🪴 #happilyeverafter 🪴 QOTD: do you like your books to have HEA’s or do you like more of an open ending? I’m wanting to reread this, I remember not loving this but I definitely enjoyed it. Everything was going great. Now they’re nemesis. We have a couple who are engaged and no longer want to be, but they’re stuck. If she cancels the wedding, she has to for the $20k bill and vice versa. But here’s the thing, she doesn’t have $20,000 dollars. So now Nicholas and Naomi are at odds as to who will call off the wedding. Seeing these two coming together as a team was really cool. 🪴Tags #youdeserveeachother #sarahhogle #newadult #romancebooks #loverstoenemiestolovers #enemiestolovers #chicklitreads #pinkbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd8sRxnrZVO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
