It’s time for another reading wrap up! This Month I Read…
The Princess of Thornwood Drive by Khalia Moreau- I was immediately interested in the premise of this book. It follows two sisters, one in the real world, and one who after a devastating accident that also killed their parents is left permanently disabled. The older sister is struggling to care for her disabled younger sister as she is only in her early 20’s herself and has lots of guilt as the accident happened as they were on the way to visit her. The story revolves around these struggles that affect both sisters. What is really unique is that the younger permanently disabled sister is trapped in a fantasy world in her mind and we get both POV’s. The same things are happening around the sisters in both POV’s, but you are getting it from the real world lens of the older sister and the fantasy world lens of the younger one. The way the stories and worlds parallel each other is fascinating and was done really well. There were parts that felt pretty slow when reading, but it was overall pretty good. The ending was well done I thought too.
First-Time Caller by B.K. Borison- This book follows Adian and Lucie. Adian is the radio host of a romance hotline show who is burning out on romance and love. Lucie is a young single mother who is still hoping to find magic. Lucie's preteen daughter calls into Adian’s show on behalf of her mother and the rest of the story leads from there. Lucie is caught up in her virality and goes on dates as part of “Lucie’s Road to Love” on Adian’s show, but romantic tension quickly develops between the two. The romance was cute and well done, but something about Adian just didn’t sit right with me. I didn’t fully understand or relate to his reasoning for being so closed off to love so I think that’s part of it. My least favorite B.K. Borison yet, but it was still good and I’m excited this is going to be a series like Lovelight Farm ones!
