To be honest, when I first saw this book, I thought to myself, "Cheryl, you’ve already read and loved a book very similar to this. In fact, it was one of the best books you’ve ever read. I don’t think I can make room in my life for a read-alike. It truly won't live up … Continue reading Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall

People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry
So, I think I’ve discovered that romances featuring idiots who love each other but refuse to talk about their feelings might be my catnip. Seriously. I requested People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry on a whim. I had read her previous novel Beach Read and I was only lukewarm about it, but when … Continue reading People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline
Hi everyone, it’s me - Mr. Librarian! Cheryl allowed me to write about one of my favorite books of 2020. What should you know about me?

Ladies of the House by Lauren Edmondson
You should probably know that I am a total sucker for a Jane Austen retelling. Or just Jane Austen. Or books about Jane Austen.

And I have the pleasure of saying that I … Continue reading Ladies of the House by Lauren Edmondson

Miracles and Menorahs by Stacey Agdern
I purchased Miracles and Menorahs by Stacey Agdern a few months ago in preparation for a Hanukkah celebration that I knew would look so different from years past.
