Birdsong28

Good. Takes an in-depth look at not just the final days and death of Marilyn Monroe but her whole life. Even though I enjoyed this there were some chapters that I skipped due to information that I felt just dragged the story down and wasn't relevant. Also sometimes during chapters that I did read some parts felt like it was also going off on tangents.

Very good. Funny and heartwarming. Perfect Christmas reading as it shows the reality most parents face at Christmas but done in a light-hearted way.

Very good. Sarah Morgan at her very best. Full of family and romance. Follows a family and how one tragedy can linger long after the event and shape their lives. Full of festive cheer and warmth.

Blonde: A Novel | Joyce Carol Oates

Good. Hard to read at first as it's very disjointed but when you get into it it's such a good read. A fictionalised account of Marilyn Monroe's life from not just her but her friends and family. My advice with this book is to just go with it and don't think too hard about what you are reading otherwise it won't make sense and will spoil the experience, you need to have some background knowledge before you read this as some things won't make sense.

Love Me Do | Lindsey Kelk

Very good. Full of romance and laughter. Characters are relatable and written so well. The story is funny and flows throughout so that you don't realise that you have read so much of it in one sitting.

Thank you @HarperCollins for sending me these goodies.
I missed Lindsey Kelk's zoom party for Love Me Do a few weeks back due to recovering from surgery and there was supposed to be a recording sent out after it. I emailed Harper Collins about it and they said there were technical issues so as an apology they sent out a summer romance bundle and here it is.

Love, Pamela | Pamela Anderson

Good. Interesting to see a different side to a well known person. Interspersed with poems that she has written makes for an interesting read as you can be in a paragraph then suddenly interrupted by it so it sometimes adds to it but mainly makes you lose your interest in the story.

Very good. Full of twists and turns. Beautifully written the words just flowed and made me want to keep on reading. A love story that leaves you both wanting more and complete at the same time. Must read.

Good. Even though I enjoyed the love story between the two characters their own stories felt a bit disappointing. As some bits felt rushed and didn't make sense. Thank you #Avon/#HarperCollinsPublishers for inviting me to read this via #NetGalley.

Good. Nice romantic story. Shows that love can come in many forms. Even though I did have a free digital copy from #Netgalley I did read it in print form. Thank you #Netgalley.
