Recently Read

The Rachel Incident - Caroline O'Donoghue 
Loved this book! The main character's voice is so engulfing, and the metaphors hit like a gut punch. I'm an advocate of women's reproductive rights being universal healthcare and this story was a beautiful reminder.

The Last Letter - Rebecca Yarros
I was hooked on this one from the very start. Such a well-written novel about trust, atonement, and what it means to be family. I fell for the characters so hard, which made the ending break my heart into a million pieces.

Open Book (audiobook) - Jessica Simpson
As someone that watched "Newlyweds" as a teenager and adored Jessica Simpson for not only her amazingly talented voice, as well as her style and story, I enjoyed this audiobook. A peek behind the scenes from The Mickey Mouse Club to relationships and motherhood, it was especially entertaining with Jessica voicing it. 

The Social Climber - Amanda Pellegrino 
A story of friendship and revenge with chapters chronicling multiple ages and phases. Very entertaining and was not expecting the ending.

The Last Flight - Julie Clark
Suspenseful and thrilling tale of two women switching identities at the airport to escape their own lives.

The Woman In Me (audiobook) - Britney Spears
Michelle Williams should receive an award for narrating this book. I grew up with Britney Spears - "Baby One More Time" was my first CD, and my dance team did a recital performance to "Toxic." It was so sad to hear everything she has been through publicly and behind the scenes.

The Soulmate - Sally Hepworth
Page-turner about secrets and sacrifice. Love the dual narrators' perspectives with a timeline moving from past to present. 

The Summer I Turned Pretty / 3 Book Series - Jenny Han
I thoroughly enjoyed this series. Super light-hearted + feel good about coming of age, first love and family.
