January Book Review {2022}


This month, since school started back up, and I was back to being in the car a lot - plus on the dog walks, I got in a few more books than in December. lol 

And this month was filled with a bunch of great books!!

Let's take a look! 




The Broken Girls - my first book of 2022
⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐

I actually had no idea what this book was about when I saw the recommendation to read it. Didn't even read the review ðŸ¤·‍♀️ 

But I really liked it! It's a mystery book (as that's what the library says ðŸ˜†). It toggled between 2 time lines. So in the end you see how it all comes together.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Have you read it? What did you think? After reading some friends' reviews, it was either hit or miss, but I really liked it! It's been in my TBR list a long time, and I don't know why I never felt the need to read it. It was definitely different than what I thought it was going to be, but I really liked it! 




 

Local Woman Missing - Oh. Em. Geeee

This book kept me guessing until the very end and I couldn't put the book down. I mean, I had to, because #momlife ðŸ˜† I actually recommended this book to my friend, who happens to be a Doula and teaches yoga (just like the main character) and she was like ummm... this is eerie! lol

If you like mysteries/thrillers, grab this one!

Aww - A Man Called Ove

I know I'm late to this book, but I'm so glad I finally got to read it.
I LOVED this book. I loved this old man, and found myself laughing at his old man grumpiness and his love for his wife (who had passed away, but still was very much a part of the story).

AND one of my followers just told me that she heard they were going to be making an American version of this move with TOM HANKS!!

Oh my goodness. That's be so good




 

Such a good book. I loved her "One Day in December" book, but I like this on even more.
Lydia loses her fiance in a car accident and basically ends up living two lives, one in reality, and one in her dreams.
I spent a lot of this book super emotional (I mean, I cry ALL THE TIME with commercials and movies, so this is no surprise lol)
I loved watching the main character grow and learn.
It's also a British book, which I love.
It's not a light hearted chick lit, but still a good book!




 

Ok, I can't decide on this one.
On one hand I really liked it, but in the other hand... I just don't know. Maybe it was the style of writing?? But I liked the story line.. its actually kind of appropriate for today's dating world. She meets someone on a dating app - and things start happening!

Idk. Have you read it?? What did you think??

Our Woman in Moscow-

I didn't think I was a historical fiction book person, but Beatriz Williams keeps changing my mind...and she's becoming one of my go to authors! I really liked this one too. 
Another good book by her!!
