Thanks!
DeleteI've read and enjoyed every Katherine Center book. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteSame here, Deb!
DeleteInteresting picks! I am a fan of Ali Hazelwood, Katherine Center. I am behind on Brenda Novak. I read my first Sarah Morgan last month. I almost never read historical romance unless it's a mystery.

I love Sarah Morgan and Brenda Novak is a new-to-me author, I've only started reading her since the year before, but I've loved everything by her.
DeleteYou've got some of my favorites on your list: Love Theoretically, Hope of Azure Springs, The Happy Life of Isadora Bentley and The Mostly True Story of Tanner and Louise to name a few. And many others are now on my TBR list! :D
ReplyDeleteWe do have similar book tastes, Lark! I'm always adding to my list from your posts, too! :)
DeleteI really need to read that Brenda Novak series. I enjoyed several of those that made your list.

It's so good! I hope you love them too!
DeleteTwo of those books are on my winter TBR. Glad you enjoyed them!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lucy! I hope you enjoy them!
DeleteOoh, I read seven of these, and I agree, all great. My daughter likes to review the Hazelwood ARCs, so I am behind on her books (the latest adult and YA release). I need to get to them this year. Tanner & Louise is a book I push. There was something special about that one. I hope we have another McBride book coming, too. I adore reading that family's adventures. I am starting the Talk of Coyote Canyon today. Such a great series. You know Center is always a good idea, too.
ReplyDeleteI hope we get a few more McBride books, hopefully one where Junebug gets her HEA too! Oh, I'm looking forward to your thoughts on The Talk of Coyote Canyon! Yep, I absolutely love Center's books! I love her whole attitude on reading, too. She wants to impart joy with her stories and I'm all about that!
DeleteThere are quite a few there I want to try
ReplyDeleteUgh, every time I see that Katherine Center book, I'm reminded it's on my TBR and I haven't gotten to it yet! I guess we know what I'll be reading this week.
ReplyDeleteYay for a Katherine Center novel on the list (so excited to read more by her and I think I own Hello Stranger, too) and I hear amazing things about Melodie's novel, too! :)
ReplyDeleteI loved the Book Club Hotel! I hadn't read Sarah Morgan before but glad I finally discovered her. Here's to lots of great love stories this year!
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of favourite reads in common Rachel. I have already read so many of these, but there are few I will be adding to my TBR mountain.
ReplyDeleteGreat list. I loved Love, Theoretically.
