One of the great parts of Spring Break is that I get some uninterrupted reading time. And even though I have so many eBooks to read (my Netgalley ARCs list is out of control), this time I decided to dedicate myself to reading only print books on my TBR. For Hanukkah, Mr. Librarian bought me … Continue reading You Had Me At Hola by Alexis Daria
You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle
I was recently talking with someone (ok, my therapist) about the nature of romance. Like romance as an idea. See, Mr. Librarian and I have been married almost 15 years and sometimes (especially in the COVID times) it mostly feels like romance is dead. I mean, at this point there’s not much we don’t know … Continue reading You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle

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
