Cephalopod Coffeehouse Book Club (2 days late) :: DEC
I am definitely in holiday mode - I forgot to post on Friday for the book club. :)
I've read four books this month and that will probably be as many as I do read. Interestingly enough, these four books are all from writers I only know about through membership of this blogging community.
It's hard to pick a favourite, but I think I am going to have to go with ...
The Summer I Found You - Jolene Perry
I really loved this book, even if sometimes Kate was a teeny bit annoying. She had good reason to be a bit whiny. And I love how she acted around Aidan, always bluntly drawing attention to his lack of an arm and so on.
It was refreshing to read about two characters dealing with physical imperfections that you don't often find in fiction, particularly in romantic fiction. A girl with diabetes and a guy with one arm. Not your everyday 'fluffy romance' read. :)
I can't wait to read my next Jolene Perry book.

I read the ARC awhile back and enjoyed it. I have a few more of her books I'd love to read.

DeleteIt does sound a bit unusual for the genre - always a good thing.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! You're already in 2015 by now!
Yep, it's good to read something non-generic. :)
