I am not sure where Spring is as it has been dragging its feet getting here. Yesterday morning we had big fat snow flakes but by late afternoon is was 50. The rainy, cold weather increased my reading last week!
Thoughts on the Books I Read Last Week:
Mean girl gets a do over! A fast, fun, and hilarious book about Lissy Ryder, who wonders what everyones problem is after attending her high school reunion. She finds out exactly why everyone reacts the way they do! Would you like a high school do-over?
Each book in the Black Knight, Inc. has me totally addicted to this series. Non-stop, suspenseful action all while a romance is brewing! I liked it that many of characters from previous books made appearances. It bugs me when they disappear from future books. This installment tickled my funny bone and I could not turn the pages fast enough. Can't wait for the next book.
I loved the humor, emotion, and redemption of this book. I was riveted to the pages wondering how their HEA would come about.Looking forward to book two in the Lonely Lords series.
Josie's has lived above the bookstore that she now works at since she was twelve . Her mother lives at the local brothel. Josie wants nothing more than to escape the French Quarter and leave her past behind. She feels a bit guilty about it as she has many people that have cared for and watched out for her: the brothel's madam, her driver, the bookstore owner, and his son. Will her smarts get her out of the easy or will her past as well as her mother's bad decisions keep there? A wonderful, emotional read.
After his mom dies and dad returns home from the war, Jack is enrolled in a boy's boarding school in Maine to be close to where his dad is stationed. He grew up in Kansas and find himself adrift in his grief. He meets Early and discovers his strangeness is more than it seems. Early sets out on a journey and Jack tags along. What they experience is heartwarming, heartbreaking and makes for a great story.

I haven't read Jen Lancaster...that one looks good. Enjoy!
Thanks for visiting my blog.
All of your books sound good to me. I like Walker and Burrowes but can't fit them all in. I'm not familiar with the other three but they sound good too.
Sorry you are still getting snow.
Here's to another good week for you!
I've heard good things about Out of the Easy and the Jen Lancaster book looks like fun. I wouldn't want to redo high school though! I'm glad the teen years are over though I wouldn't mind being in my 20s again :)
I'm ready for summer. We've had a weird spring with days in the 40s and days in the 70s...
I've never heard of these.
Have a great week!
Here is mine
These are all new to me except Navigating Early and that one has piqued my curiosity lately. Enjoy your books!
Glad you enjoyed Out of the Easy, it's on my TBR stacks. Love the cover of Navigating Early, haven't heard of it til now but it sounds good too.
Can't believe your weather! we had a rainy, rainy week last week, maybe that's why I had a good reading week lol
Have a great week and happy reading :)
All new to me! enjoy.
Great week for you :D
here I go Again sounds fun and Out of the Easy sounds lovely
I hope you enjoy your reading choices this week!

Great books this week. Out of the Easy sounds really good - going to have to see if my library has a copy of it!
Have a great week and hope the Spring weather comes to stay!

Love how you put these blurbs about your books in little boxes with the cover next to it. Teach me, o wise one!
Here's my It's Monday.
I enjoyed reading your little reviews about each book, it was nice because I'm not familiar with any of them, but you have peeked my interest with one or two of them.
I want to read Out of the Easy SO BAD :) Her first book was fantastic.
Have a great week and enjoy your reading time!
Ugh, so sorry about the snow. I think of the line from the musical Camelot that snow should "exit March the 2nd, on the spot." Fortunately, we haven't had any in April this year in the Boston area.
I have Out of the Easy and just need to find the time to get to it. Glad you liked it!
I would not want to do highschool over again, once was enough. Out of the Easy sounds good, as does Navigating Early. Hope you enjoy the Burning Air as much as I did. Have a great week Nise, do stop by for some banana bread.
Forgot to mention those two books with the revealing chests, hmmmmmm think I might dig into a series.
Navigating Early sounds good!!
I love Jen Lancaster, I will have to read this one. If I had a high school do-over, I would try to be a little more outgoing. I was so quiet and shy!
I loved Out of the Easy!!
I keep wanting to read something by Lancaster. One of these days I will. I thought Out of the Easy was really good too.
Lots of great books there, especially Out Of The Easy! Happy reading this week :)
What I've Been Reading!
These books look great. I especially like the looks of the Jen Lancaster book. Have a great week!
After loving Between Shades of Gray, I think I'm going to have to read everything Ruta Sepetys writes. Enjoy your week!
I'm excited to read Out of the Easy. Have you read her other book?
Have an awesome week!
Hi Nise,
I sure wouldn't want a high school do-over. Those years were among my most difficult! I'm glad they're long-gone.
It sounds like you had a fabulous week of reading. Do Over sounds interesting though I would never personally want to revisit high school LOL!
Fantastic short reviews that had me wanting to read each one you posted about!
No, I would not like a high school do-over! Somehow I remained unscathed the first time and wouldn't want to risk it twice. I do want to try Jen Lancaster though.
