Here is one of my latest reads and review. I received an ARC copy and am happy to leave a review of this terrific book. I think you'll enjoy Love & Laughter by Elora Canne as much as I did.

What a delightful story! It's nice to read a book with engaging, mature characters. The banter is friendly and lively as a group of friends and neighbors in their early 60s explore life and love in their retirement years. The novel is full of entertaining characters, humor, and romance.

I loved how the characters reminded me of nervous teenagers going out on their first dates. Many of the characters are widows and widowers dipping their toes in the dating pool again, and are just as nervous as a sixteen-year-old.

Love & Laughter is a heartwarming, original story I thoroughly enjoyed. I would recommend this novel for anyone looking for a feel good, enjoyable read. I look forward to the author's next book.

It's hard to believe it's already February. 2025 is unfolding at a blistering pace. It's a tough time in our country right now. So many changes are unfolding and it can be confusing, frustrating, exhausting.

I haven't blogged in quite some time, but I thought to begin again. I've been reading non-stop, trying books with authors I've never read before, reading genres I never would have in the past. I like to expand my horizons, do a bit of exploring, and have recently read a few fantasy novels that were not on my radar until I came upon them on social media. I have found some great books I'll be sharing. Have a look at them. You may be surprised. I think you'll enjoy them. I know I did.

HIDDEN MAGIC is a wonderful book. The story tells the tale of one woman's life turned upside down when her fiancé reveals his controlling, abusive nature. She leaves everything behind to escape him and finds herself in a  mysterious, magical place in North Carolina.

The fast moving plot is filled with secrets, intrigue, magical spells, colorful characters, and romance with the charming Sheriff of the town. The engaging novel comes alive on the page with the sights and sounds of the Hallow well written. I had a hard time putting down this book and found myself rooting for the heroine and her Sheriff when one crisis after another was thrown their way.

Give it a read. I think you'll like this wonderful escape.
