What’cha Reading Wednesday!
These are the 3 I’m reading right now! How about you?
“Same Time Next Summer” by Annabel Monaghan is my fun, summer romance I have going right now. It’s about Sam, who is engaged to Jack, but is visiting her summer home, where her childhood boyfriend Wyatt is also visiting his summer home next door. Right now she is doing all she can to avoid him. But you know she won’t be able to, so it will be fun to see where this goes!
“Sea of Charms” by Sarah Beth Durst is a whimsical fantasy that I am reading in advance right now. It comes out the end of July and I am reading it to see if she’s the type of author I want to carry when I open my bookmobile. And she is! It’s light, whimsical, like I said, and fun to escape into the story. It’s about a sailor, in a way, Marin, who goes from island to island to deliver packages, supplies, etc. On the way she picks up a sea serpent, a magical bush and the man who is going to be the man of her dreams…I just know it!
And “Mad Mabel” by Sally Hepworth. I am actually listening to this one, and I love it. There is the younger version of Mabel, who grew up in Australia so the narrator has an Australian accent. The older version of Mabel lives in England and this narrator has an older English accent. Older Mabel, or Elsie as she is known, is hilariously ornery. Word got out that Elsie murdered someone when she was younger and is making a crime podcast with some young adults. She had such a rough childhood, I am interested to know what happened and why I happened. I love the story and the characters already.
Now I was serious, I want to know what you’re reading, or what you’ve recently read. Share away!
