September Reads

I read five books in September. They were fine.

The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop by Fannie Flag. If you want to read even more about Whistle Stop this book is for you. I found it adequate as a read. I give it three out of five stars.

How Dolly Parton Saved My Life by Charlotte Connors. I borrowed this from my mom because I LOVE Dolly Parton. I’ve been to Dollywood twice. So I started the book. It seemed familiar, but I wasn’t sure. So I kept reading. I kept reading even though I didn’t like the story or the characters. Eventually I finished the book even though by then I realized I had already read the book. My rating in goodreads gives this book three stars, but that must have been when I was reading only bad books or maybe I was recovering from my concussion. Don’t bother with this one. I give this book one out of five stars.

Knit One, Girl Two by Shira Glassman. I heard about this book on an episode of the Knitmore Girls. This is about an Indie Dyer who launches a collection inspired by a local artist, makes it big, and finds love. This is more of a novella than a novel, so if you are looking for an easy romance that takes less than an hour to read this fits the bill. I give this book two out of five stars.

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood. Finally a good book. This adorable and predictable (in a good way) book is about a PhD candidate and a professor who pretend to be in a relationship. I don’t want to give away the ending, so that is all I will say. I give this book four out of five stars.

The Sweetest Remedy by Jane Igharo. A biracial woman, raised by her white mother, is invited to her father’s funeral in Kenya. His family only finds about her existence when she arrives. She meets her family, builds relationships, and finds herself. I really liked this book, and love this author. I give this book four out of five stars.

Have you read anything good lately?
