Jen’s Mini Reviews: Books by Christina Henry, Kate Canterbary and Tara Westover
I have a few mini reviews from wildly different authors. All are absolutely excellent and highly recommended. I’m starting with Lost Boy: The True Story of Captain Hook by Christina Henry. Wow! This recommendation came from a colleague and it did not disappoint me one bit. It’s a dark retelling of Peter Pan and the origin story of Captain Hook. In this not so happy fairy tale, Peter is a spoiled narcissistic psychopath. Not a doctor here…but I’m going for it with the psychopath Continue Reading

Review: Unfortunately Yours by Tessa Bailey
Unfortunately Yours by Tessa BaileyA Vine Mess #2Contemporary RomanceJune 6, 2023- AvonARC Review by Angela I didn't love the first book in the series, Secretly Yours, neither the pacing nor the romance really worked for me and it took forever to finish. I kind of debated on whether I should continue with this duology, but ultimately decided I needed to know how the hate/lust relationship between the other Vos sibling and her retired Navy Seal panned out. I'm glad I did because this Continue Reading
