'After I Do' by Taylor Jenkins Reid

From the BLURB: When Lauren and Ryan’s marriage reaches the breaking point, they come up with an unconventional plan. They decide to take a year off in the hopes of finding a way to fall in love again. One year apart, and only one rule: they cannot contact each other. Aside from that, anything goes. Lauren embarks on a journey of self-discovery, quickly finding that her friends and family have their own ideas about the meaning of marriage. These influences, as well as her own healing process and the challenges of living apart from Ryan, begin to change Lauren’s ideas about monogamy and marriage. She starts to question: When you can have romance without loyalty and commitment without marriage, when love and lust are no longer tied together, what do you value? What are you willing to fight for? This is a love story about what happens when the love fades. It’s about staying in love, seizing love, forsaking love, and committing to love with everything you’ve got. And above all, After I Do ...

'Burn Bright' Alpha and Omega #5 by Patricia Briggs

Received from the Publisher  From the BLURB: Mated werewolves Charles Cornick and Anna Latham face a threat like no other - one that lurks too close to home . . . They are the wild and the broken. The werewolves too damaged to live safely among their own kind. For their own good, they have been exiled to the outskirts of Aspen Creek, Montana. Close enough to the Marrok's pack to have its support; far enough away to not cause any harm. With their Alpha out of the country, Charles and Anna are on call when an SOS comes in from the fae mate of one such wildling. Heading into the mountainous wilderness, they interrupt the abduction of the wolf - but can't stop blood from being shed. Now Charles and Anna must use their skills - his as enforcer, hers as peacemaker - to track down the attackers, reopening a painful chapter in the past that springs from the darkest magic of the witchborn... ‘ Burn Bright ’ is the fifth instalment in Patricia Brigg’s urban fantasy series ‘Alpha & Om...

'The Upside of Unrequited' by Becky Albertalli

From the BLURB: Seventeen-year-old Molly Peskin-Suso knows all about unrequited love-she's lived through it twenty-six times. She crushes hard and crushes often, but always in secret. Because no matter how many times her twin sister, Cassie, tells her to woman up, Molly can't stomach the idea of rejection. So she's careful. Fat girls always have to be careful. Then a cute new girl enters Cassie's orbit, and for the first time ever, Molly's cynical twin is a lovesick mess. Meanwhile, Molly's totally not dying of loneliness-except for the part where she is. Luckily, Cassie's new girlfriend comes with a cute hipster-boy sidekick. Will is funny, flirtatious, and just might be perfect crush material. Maybe more than crush material. And if Molly can win him over, she'll get her first kiss and she'll get her twin back. There's only one problem: Molly's coworker, Reid. He's an awkward Tolkien superfan, and there's absolutely no way Molly coul...

Interview with Cecelia Ahern, author of 'Lyrebird'

Hello Darling Readers, I’m thrilled to bring you a very special Q&A on the blog today – with Irish author Cecelia Ahern!   She’s the author of bestselling book (turned into tearjerker movie) P.S. I Love You , and another favourite book and film adaptation of mine – Love, Rosie . She’s also responsible for one of my favourite (much-missed!) comedy shows, Samantha Who? Cecelia Ahern’s latest book is Lyrebird , which I’m reading now and absolutely loving!   So without further ado, here’s a special December treat for you … *** Q:     Earlier this year you totally switched things up and released your first young adult debut in Flawed . What made you want to write for teens? And how was it harder/easier than writing for adults?  The story decided it for me. While I’d been asked for years if I would write for Young adults, my response was, ‘I will if I get the idea’. I’m not the kind of writer who decides a genre first, I really follow the ideas. When Flawed ...

'Daisy Jones and The Six' by Taylor Jenkins Reid

From the BLURB:  There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.  There was Camila, the frontman’s wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode – and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy.  There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn’t ready for her.  And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour. They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames.  It’s never just about the music… Late contender for one of my FAVE books of 2019 - 'Daisy Jones and the Six' by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I loved her other book, 'The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' so I shouldn’t be surprised t...
