Profesional Dancer
Artem - author's last name has 3 vowels

Chapter 4: Hiroya (view spoiler)[ this was not the chapter for me but I still enjoyed it. I also love seeing the connections between the chapters grow and grow. (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 3: Natsumi (view spoiler)[ typical struggle of woman wanting a career and to be a mother. however, I liked the way it was written. it was more internal discovery than shrill "damn the man" prose. I also wonder if the moon book is real, but I'm doing audio so I couldn't catch the title fully. (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

i'm in for 5 books!

Finished (view spoiler)[ so stinkin cute. Loved this couple and this ending! (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

Ch.13-16 (view spoiler)[ things are going well. What last challenge are they gonna face? Her parents being buttheads? Or a giant food fight at the party? There’s gotta be something right?? (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

these challenges are meant to be fun not stressful. we're a team 😁

Ch.8-12 (view spoiler)[ yes! So stinking cute but also spicy. Loving how this is going but also so worried for the cringe when they go back to Strawberry Hollow. (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

2: Ryo - i feel like this book found me; this chapter resonated with me so much! (view spoiler)[ I have often felt similar to Ryo about my job/not enough time to do the things I want (not just reading haha). It's so easy to say that we are too busy but really it's a matter of making time for the things that matter to us and not being easily swept up in the stream of day to day. I don't want to open an antiques shop but it does make me think about what is the overall goal I am working towards. (view spoiler)[

also, how can i find this librarian?! hehe. (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

Agh! (view spoiler)[ he didn’t book the hotel! I’m calling it now, only one room left and one bed! *screams in romance book* (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]
