Doppio Forno: cocci & dolci

  I read and loved “How to walk away” and “Things you save in a fire”, I even gave as gift “How..” to my sister and so I was excited to receive a digital copy from St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley but this time the book didn’t convince me, I gave it 3.5 stars and I would divide between first half of the book (two stars) and second half of it (five stars). I was almost giving up and do not finish the book; then I read some of the reviews saying the second half was better and I gave a try and they are right. My problem with the first twelve chapters of the book is that the main character seems to be saying always the same thing Duncan was different, he changed, he was so funny, so happy now he is not. Then everything changed and I loved the end of the book, there was more action and it was more interesting.

 A book that can be read in a day Do you think Summer of ‘69 is too long? Do you want to know what happened to the Foley Levin family? You can read this short story and you will know what happened in 1969 and what’s going on to the family on ‘79. I am done with this author, there is no story or plot, the characters are very shallow and predictable and I have lost $1.99. Goodreads: Summer of '79 by Elin Hilderbrand

It is a good romance story but, in my opinion, a little predictable.  I liked the setting in a small town and I think the author succeeded in describing the atmosphere but I think both main characters were a little stereotypical.

I liked the first book and I think I should have stopped with it. I finished this one only because I like Louisa personality/character, the story is nothing special and some of the other characters are too stereotypical.  Finally what I really didn't like the lack of research for example Lou get her green card as easy as buying a plane ticket (not true!).  Goodreads: Still Me by Jojo Moyes

This is the fourth book in the Holley sisters series and my first book I read from this author. I liked and I think I am going to read the other books of this series: I want to know more about the other Holley sisters! It is a nice romance; I liked the story and how the author developed the different characters. What draw me to read this book was the location of Lake District and it left me with the longing to go and visit that area.

This is not for me.  I was tempted not to give a review because it was going to be negative. When I started writing why I was not going to give a feedback I realized it was a mistake not to give a feedback. I read few romance novels because I don’t love the genre but the few  I read and liked were very different from this one. I like when there is more bantering between the characters and a little more humor. This one was flat. There was no humor, Finally when I was a little more than 1/3 of the book I already foresee the end. I am sorry but I didn’t like it. Thank you NetGalley and Troubadour Publishing Limited for providing me with an ARC in change of an honest review.  Goodreads: Distracted by Belinda Wright Published on April 27th 2019 by Matador.
