A lovely festive repost from @whatstephisreading t

A lovely festive repost from @whatstephisreading this morning! ☃️ 🎄 💙 ⠀
⠀
"I loved this feel-good, festive story. The characters were well developed, and grew more likable over time. In the beginning I was frustrated by how much Damien walked all over Sadie, but I liked that Sadie knew she held some power over Damien’s decisions and used it to her advantage. Damien grew on me over time as he loosens up from his workaholic exterior. I loved Sadie’s Christmas traditions with her family and local community, and the story will keep you smiling, even if the ending is a bit predictable.⠀
⠀
Stuck On You was charming and witty so if you like British rom coms or want to get into the holiday spirit, pick up this one!"⠀
⠀
Thanks so much for this fantastic review of Stuck On You by @portiamacintoshauthor! Who else is getting in the Christmas spirit with festive reads? 🎅⠀

Happy Monday Bookstagram! 📚 ⠀

Today we're sharing this gorgeous autumnal snap from @teatime_and_a_book! 🍁🍂⠀

"I really enjoyed this book, the first half was a slow burn for me but kept my attention. It's a very compelling emotional read of self discovery. The story is told in three parts and each part moves seamlessly to the next. I also enjoyed the fact that you got prespectives from both sides of the affair.⠀
⠀
A well written book that makes you think about life, relationships, chances and the things we take for granted. I would definitely recommend picking this one up." ⠀

QOTD: What is your favourite cosy November read? Our choice today is A Village Murder by @francesevesham! 🏡🔎📚⠀
⠀
Featuring a wonderful #bookreview from @lureviewsbooks:⠀
⠀
"Engrossing and light.⁠ As a teenager, I was a fan of Agatha Christie. I loved the mystery and the wow feeling at the end of each book. Adam is my favorite kind of character: cheerful, funny, a little awkward. Definitively not the tall, dark, and handsome hero one expects. His inner beauty shines through, and I was touched by his unassuming way of leading the investigation.⁠" ⠀

"Happy Sunday Bookfriends!⠀
⠀
I'm participating in #reading1000pages this week and today's prompt is cozy reading spot. I love a cup of tea, fuzzy blanket, candle, goodbook on either my sofa or bed to make my favorite cozy reading spot.⠀
⠀
QOTD what does your cozy reading spot look like? ⠀
⠀
Today is my stop for the @bookandtonic tour of The House Mate by Nina Manning.⠀
⠀
This is my second book I've read by Nina Manning and I'm really becoming a fan of her writing. I really enjoyed The House Mate, the synopsis drew me right in and as soon as I started reading I quickly began to devour it. I read a lot of thrillers so I always appreciate a book with twists that I didn't see coming. Manning has a really well thought out plot and is really great at creating believable situations and characters. It was a really well written, fast paced, shocking thriller revolving around misconceptions that I would highly recommend."⠀

"This is the third book I've read by Saxon and she's quickly becoming a favorite of mine. She has a way of writing captivating police procedurals with misdirection and lots of twists and turns throughout. ⠀
⠀
Saxon is able to put the right balance between the main characters personal life along side the crime that has me devouring her books."⠀
