It's that time of year again--the end of the year. And with it, the dilemma--do I post this before the end of the year and risk missing something, or later and have it get caught up in all the 'best of' lists? Well, I guess I blew right past this and forgot to post it till now, so enjoy!
- Eight Nights of Flirting by Hannah Reynolds--Cute Hanukkah romance with the added bonus of a unique setting--winter in Nantucket--and an archaeological/anthropological mystery.
- The Wartime Sisters by Lynda Cohen Loigman--Book club read, about two Jewish sisters who work at an armory in Boston during WWII--it's...fine, not a book I would have picked, but if you're interested in the historical setting, I'd recommend it.
- The Collected Regrets of Clover by Mikki Brammer--Read this for a new book club (that brings me up to 3 😉)--I was apprehensive since it was compared to Eleanor Oliphant, a book that devastated me, but thankfully was unwarranted. It's a truly meaningful although also lighter and quirky story about a death doula and coming to terms with regrets. TL;DR recommended to people who like quirky characters and can handle some discussion of death.
- Kissing Kosher by Jean Meltzer--Ah, so much to unpack--I got it from the library, but I think I need to buy it. Lots of Jewish and chronic illness rep (chronic pelvic pain, this time), really deep and thoughtful about what it means to live a Jewish life in contemporary America, plus cute romance and baking.
- A Vision in Crimson by Kathryn Troy-ARC I am reviewing--stay tuned for more, but TL; DR--highly recommended to spicy romantasy fans!
