The Wishing Quilt by Jodi Thomas; Lori Wilde; Pati

The Wishing Quilt by Jodi Thomas; Lori Wilde; Patience Griffin.

Despite not having heard of any of these authors before, I took a chance on this book solely based on the fact that it was quilt themed, a hobby I am passionate about.

The first story (which ended up being my favourite) was one of instant love and takes place over a week or two. It took me a few attempts to get settled into this story, the characters were almost abrupt in their thinking and dialogue. There were a couple of subplots that were not explored, but all in all, a pleasant way to spend 30 mins.

Story two and three were both enjoyable as well, and feature cowboys as well as quilting. Would I read more from these authors? Yes, I'm a huge fan of small-town romance.

Thank you to @netgalley who supplied me with an ARC in return for my honest opinions.

This is the first book I have read by Miranda Lias

This is the first book I have read by Miranda Liasson, and while it is actually book 2 in a series, you don’t need to have read the other book first in order to follow along.

This is a sweet, small-town romance that focuses on family and friends. It has a simple, predictable storyline, and the characters are likeable. Overall, a fun, quick read.

I received this book from @netgalley in exchange for my honest review.

Description from the publisher: Kate O’Reilly lo

Description from the publisher:
Kate O’Reilly loves a stroll down memory lane.

Nowadays she’s a mother to Declan and Phoebe, has the semi-detached in suburbia and the dependable husband, Seamus – but when faced with a never-ending pile of laundry and new chin hairs sprouting overnight, no wonder she daydreams about the past.

A time when the music was better (Girl Power forever!), her social circle was wider, Cool Britannia reigned supreme and only a penalty shootout stood between England reaching the finals of Euro ’96.

So, when a freak electrical storm takes her back in time to 1996, Kate’s elated – this is her chance to discover what might have happened if she’d only done things a little bit differently in the Nineties.

But as she relives her youth again, will Kate realise some things really are best left in the past? And will she ever be able to get back to the family she misses so much? Even if none of them know how to load the sodding dishwasher.

My Review:
I really wanted to love this book, the blurb made it sound like such a fun read, but it ended up lacking for me.

The main character was fun and learned a lot while she was visiting her younger self, she also came to realise that we often have a tainted, romantic view, of our past, and she grew from this knowledge.

There was a LOT of product placement in this book, was it sponsored? Alcohol, food, shops, and places were named again and again and again. The book also references Back To The Future, and has plot lines that obviously mimic that movie. This made the book pretty predictable, and also rather disappointing.

A quick, easy read, but I wanted more in terms of plot and predictability.

Thank you to NetGalley for giving me an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

The Amish Teacher’s Dilemma by Patricia Davids.

The Amish Teacher’s Dilemma by Patricia Davids.

Patricia is a new to me author and I'm glad I took the plunge. I really enjoyed this story and have now added her backlist to my TBR pile.

I am obsessed with Amish romance (if you have any recommendations, please let me know). I love the family aspect of the stories and the clean and wholesome romances that are based on faith.

The blurb:

The teacher next door could be the mother they need…

Will she return to her old life…or risk everything to build a new one?

Taking a schoolteacher position in another district is just the change Amish spinster Eva Coblentz needs. And with her new neighbor, blacksmith Willis Gingrich, struggling to raise his three orphaned siblings, Eva is determined to help them heal. But when her relatives insist she come home, Eva must choose between the life she left…and the one she’s growing to love.

There are days when I constantly need to remind myself of the truth in these words. To try, and fail, is a lot easier to live with than the regret of never trying.

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek by Elizabeth Bromke.

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek by Elizabeth Bromke.

I had never heard of this author before picking up this book, and I really enjoyed it.

This was a charming small-town romance with multiple POV. Although this is book 3 in a series, you don’t need to have read the others in order to understand this book.

A sweet, quick read, a perfect way to spend an hour or two.

Thank you to @netgalley for a copy of this book in return for my honest review.
