You expressed the way it feels when grief days on the calendar are coming - the stressful anticipation. Then the way grief is still there but things lighten. I understand completely. 💙💙
@bethanysbookshelf Thank you, Bethany! 🥰 I'm glad I managed to somewhat summarize Across the Ages, but I completely missed saying anything about the plot of Cross Country Christmas! 😅 Whoops!
I've encountered books like that - technically clean but so much lusting going on... Annoying! I found that aspect of Across the Ages interesting, that she had no idea why she crossed time and what the rules were. It created a lot of tension in the plot, too!
@insearchofwonder Yes! I love to try different authors, but I just never know what to fully expect until I get into the book. I really appreciated that about Across the Ages! 🩷
I've been seeing so many people reading Better Watch Out. Apparently I need to give it a try 😅 And I really want to get to one of Morgan L. Busse's books next year. I've wanted to read some of her books for a while and still haven't picked one up yet. Sounds like it was a really good reading month, though I'm sorry it was rougher emotionally. Praying for you!
Okay, I definitely need to pick that up soon! I'm holding myself to finish my 24 on 24 list before anything else... but Ravenwood 2 is a good motivator at the end of it. 😆

That's it exactly. It's there, but the anticipation of that anniversaries diminishes for another year. Thank you 💗

I really liked the fact on Across the ages that she didn’t know. I felt like that added a whole new level to the idea.
@@CandlewickLibrary Exactly! I had never considered that possibility.
Oooo, The Designated Friend sounds cute!! 😊
@@bethanysbookshelf It was! ❤️
I finished up the The Ravenwood Saga this year. My husband and I read that together and we both enjoyed it.
@AlmasBookJourney I love it! I think it's one my husband would like it too!
I loved reading Across the Ages with you! You did a much better job summarizing it than I did! 😂

@Coffee_and_a_Book I highly recommend Morgan L. Busse's books. The two I've read, at least! Thank you 🥰
I loved the Ravenwood Saga! Book 2 is probably my favorite.

@Jess-pagesandgrace how many books do you have left on your 2024 list?
@@AshleasBookshelf 5 🤦♀️😆🤣😬
@@AshleasBookshelf 2 of them are very short, but I'm ready to have that goal complete!
@Jess-pagesandgrace you can do it! 👏

SO interesting were your thoughts about the reality of small towns.
It's something I don't see often, but I really enjoy it when I do! I'm all for cheesy romances with cute towns, though, too! 😆
