OUT OF THE READING SLUMP
It’s been a while since I posted about books I’m reading. That’s partly because I’ve been busy working on the sequel to Wicked Dance … AND because I’ve been picking up books and not finishing them. I know, I hate DNFing books, but I just don’t have the time to put myself through the torture of reading through something I can’t connect with. I need the “feels” or it’s just not worth it. I also don’t think it’s fair to name those books. I don’t believe in giving a bad a review, so let’s just leave it at that.
Thankfully, I’ve finally found the book to get me out of my reading slump. KG Fletcher’s Georgia Clay is everything I’d been hoping for. I just started the book two days ago and so far I’ve struggled to put it down. This is the first book in her standalone Southern Promises series, and it’s positively beautiful. Katie and Clay reacquaint at their ten year high school reunion and sparks begin to fly. It’s such a relatable book and the characters are so well written it’s easy to fall in love with them. I can’t wait for her second book in the series, Georgia On My Mind, releasing June 11th! Go check her out!
