Top Ten Tuesday #1 | Books I Loved but Will Never Re-Read

.

Top Ten Tuesday

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

Adult Contemporary Romance | Valentine's Day 2018




Happy Valentine's Day!

A long time ago I did something like this where I mentioned books that I hadn't read and it didn't make that much sense. So I'm trying this again. This time with some books I've read. I'm also going to divide them by different categories.





____________________________________________________



Landline by Rainbow Rowell

Georgie and Neal love each other but their relationship isn't the same as it used to be. Georgie doesn't know what to do about it till she discovers a way to communicate with Neal from the past.

I loved it! I cried, I laughed, and I broke down in the middle.
4 out of 5 stars.                














Camille is the owner of the internet famous food truck. Winning money to get her baby sister to college. One day she crashes with her former love who had been in the army, Drew Bautista whose family ends up rivaling her in the food business.          

4 out of 5 stars. 💖              








Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

Louisa Clark is an ordinary woman who gets a new job helping  Will Traynor whose wheelchair bound.

Just don't read it sleep deprived like I did. Still gave it 4 out of 5 stars.              













The Fortune Teller by Gwendolyn Womack


Theo and Semele are caught between a grand story of love, fortune telling and adventure.      

Read it in one day and gave it 5 stars. That good.              
















One thriller just cause.

Caitlin had been missing for 7 months. She appears at her home where her husband greats her and sees she's acting like she didn't go missing. She has amnesia.

There is more romance further in the book but since its a thriller I don't want to ruin it.

The Prettiest One by James Hankins | Book Review




Book Review:
The Prettiest One by




Spoilers?
Not really.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is one of the books I read after the passing of Hurricane Maria here in Puerto Rico. With no water, electricity or internet I took to reading my books.

I read this one from Nov 22 - Nov 25. 62 days after.


Title - The Prettiest One
By - James Hankins  
Publication - October 1st 2015 by Thomas & Mercer
Copy - Paperback, 399 pages

 Genre - Thriller, Mystery, Fiction, Suspense

When Caitlin Sommers finds herself alone in a deserted parking lot with blood on her clothes and no memory of the past few months, it seems like one of the nightmares that have tormented her for years…but it’s all too real. Desperate to learn the truth about where she’s been and what has happened to her but terrified of what she may find, Caitlin embarks on a search for answers. Her journey takes her from the safe suburban world she knows to a seedy town she’s never heard of, where a terrible truth from her past lies hidden—a truth she can’t quite remember yet can’t completely forget.

The Rating:

My Review:

The Cover:
Although they say never judge a book by it's cover I believe the cover should represent what the book is going to be like or at least some aspect of it.
I didn't get much from the cover itself but it does have a tiny bit of a mysterious look to it. With the two side profiles looing like orange smoke it is a bit creepy and you think that it somehow is involved in the story inside.


Story:

Caitlin has vanished for 7 months and now she's at the door to her house with her husband confused by her sudden appearance and the fact that he's acting like she was never away.


Relationships:

 Caitlin x Josh
I thought their relationship was weird from the start. Like there was something Josh was keeping from Caitlin. So I didn't really like him for her despite him being her husband.
Katie x Bix
I did like these two so much more and cheered for them when ever Bix talked about her or to her like he loved her still.

Overall:

This book was a wild ride.
No. Seriously it was so good.

I was expecting one thing before I started reading it and then the first few pages I expected something else. Then that happened three more times. It was like this book had too much to offer but in a good way.
It is one of the more stronger books I've read so far. I don't want to spoil it but I will warn you that it is not just a story about a wife who disappears and loses all memory if the even. It's about so much more.
