Once Upon an Apple Review
A retelling of a beloved fairytale with the swoon-worthy sweet romance of a Hallmark movie, the wholesome and heartwarming feeling of cozy fantasy, and the comfort of a found family of friends, with a sprinkling of danger and a dash of magic…
The Seaside Homecoming Review
Julie has done it again with this series! I found myself immersed once again into the characters' personalities, lives, and way of life. I love being able to get to know the story and characters leisurely. They have such depth! If you enjoy thicker and more leisurely reads, sisterly bonds, regency romance, and dashing gentlemen, then I recommend this series to you. Enjoy!
The Christmas Tree Farm Review
A Christmas tree farm. A single dad. It all has the making of a great Christmas novella. A clean read for ages 14+, if you like Christmas tree farms in need of saving, childhood sweethearts to more, love triangles, then I recommend The Christmas Tree Farm to you. Enjoy!
Miss Lattimore’s Letter Review
The woman who never made a match of her own is making matches for everyone else in this hilarious comedy of manners from the author of Mr. Malcolm's List.
The Coal Miner’s Niece Review
The Coal Miner's Niece is a sweet and charming story with beautifully written descriptions, historical details, gripping plot line, and characters. I enjoyed reading every minute of it! If you like books like Heidi and Anne of Green Gables, along with the childhood-friends-to-lovers and amnesia tropes, and stories about hope and family, then I recommend The Coal Miner’s Niece to you.

Book Blind Date Essentials
But first of all, what is a book blind date? It is simply buying a book cover and blurb unseen and making an occasion out of it. But how do you buy a book cover and blurb unseen? Usually these books come wrapped in paper with a sentence, hint, or the genre written on it. You can probably find some at a bookstore or on Etsy. Here’s some I’ve found on etsy:

The Thief of Blackfriars Lane Review
There’s Often a Fine Line Between a Criminal and a Saint
Constable Jackson Forge intends to make the world safer, or at least the streets of Victorian London. But that’s Kit Turner’s domain, a swindler who runs a crew that acquires money the old-fashioned way—conning the rich to give to the poor. When a local cab driver goes missing, Jackson is tasked with finding the man, and the only way to do that is by enlisting Kit’s help. If Jackson doesn’t find the cabby, he’ll be fired. If Kit doesn’t help Jackson, he’ll arrest her for thievery. Yet neither of them realize those are the least of their problems.
