The Rachel Incident by Caroline O’Donoghue
This book is quiet and took me a little to get into, but once I was there WOW, I loved where it went. It’s about a college student in Ireland, her best guy friend, and a complicated situation they find themselves in. This book is a great pick for fans of Normal People and Adelaide.
My Rating: 4/5 Stars
The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin
This book is a guide to living a happier life. I first read this book in 2011 and I’m *convinced* it changed my life. I decided to do a reread via audiobook and enjoyed revisiting it. The tips throughout are simple by powerful.
The Nine Lives of Rose Napolitano by Donna Freitas
I enjoyed this book but also have complicated feelings on it. It’s about a woman who doesn’t want to have kids and follows 9 different versions of how her life turns out. I appreciate the exploration of different ways motherhood can look, but if you’re looking for a book that affirms a child-free lifestyle this book ain’t it.
Expiration Dates by Rebecca Serle
Out on 3/5/24
Rebecca Serle has done it again. Every time Daphne meets a new man, she gets a slip of paper that tells her how long the relationship will last. When the paper for her new beau Jake turns out to be blank, it’s time for her to figure out if this is what the universe wants for her — and if the secret she’s holding onto could ruin everything. I devoured this book in 24 hours and it turned me into an emotional puddle. I loved it.
