Forget Me Not | Julie Soto

I loved this book! I read it in a day, and I couldn't put it down.
A wedding planner who doesn't believe in marriage gets involved with one of her vendors, a florist. I love how the present-day storyline is in her point of view, and the past is in his point of view.
It is a cute rom-con type story with a bit of spice.

Felix Ever After | Kacen Callender

#ReadAway2024 When I first started this book, I found the teenage characters annoying. But they were just behaving like teenagers and by the end of this very enjoyable book Felix and his friends had grown up more than just a little. Felix is a 17-year-old trans boy who knows he‘s not a girl but is not quite sure he‘s a boy. As he questions his gender identity, an even bigger question becomes apparent: does he deserve to be loved? It‘s a (cont)⬇️

CatLass007 sad question for anyone to ask and we probably all feel this way from time to time. But Felix seems to believe that, for whatever reason, the answer to the question is, “No.” He spends a lot of mental energy questioning if he deserves anything good at all. But during the course of the book he learns to not take responsibility for everything painful that happens to others or is inflicted on him by others. It reminded me of what it was like (cont)⬇️ 5h
CatLass007 to be a teenager so many years ago. And it helped me to empathize with people who are different, especially LGBTQIA+ people. I imagine that people who fall under this umbrella term have a more difficult and painful experience growing up. 5h

Emma of 83rd Street | Audrey Bellezza, Emily Harding

Overall, I enjoyed this retelling of Emma. The ending to me seemed to be a very different tone from the rest of the book, which disappointed me a bit, but this is still a pick. I loved seeing Emma‘s passion for art shine throughout the novel and her convictions to stand on her own in certain situations - lots of growth. It was cute and light…great choice for #PemberLittens ! #JaneAdjacent

StayCurious Thank you so much for reading along! 1h

I absolutely adored this story! Three generations of Indian women supporting each other and finding themselves through life's conflicts. They struggle with self image, misogyny in the workplace, breaking down patriarchal marriage roles, and dating in a new technological world. Each woman brings their own unique perspective to each problem. Their love and support for each other was inspiring 💗

Violet must beat the odds to survive and become a (dragon) rider. Then she has to choose between the kingdom she's been raised to protect and the well-being of the entire realm. Suspense, action, steam, and Violence. A definite 5⭐️ read!
