The Queen of Hearts in Freaks Between the Book Sheets Romance Recs

Feb 22, 2018 Kailey (kmc_reads) rated it it was amazing

Loved this one! As soon as I saw that Southern Living recommended it for fans of Grey's Anatomy, I knew I had to read :) I thought it was a quick but interesting read. The perfect blend of medical drama, female friendships, romance and secret betrayal. I liked the past/present flashbacks, and was so intrigued to find out how everything had gone down (in the past). There were some small "twists" that I wondered about but really didn't see coming, so I very much enjoyed it. There was also a very s ...more

This book was interesting! I was drawn in by the cover & the description (because who doesn’t love medical dramas), but it did fall a little bit flat for me. The friendship aspect was interesting, as were the dilemmas throughout, but I didn’t really care for the ending/outcome with relationships.

I can see how this book can be compared to Grey’s Anatomy. I don’t think just because you like Grey’s you’ll like this book or because you hate Grey’s you will hate this book. I really enjoy medical shows, real life and fiction. They have fascinated me for as long as I can remember. I didn’t love this book though. I also didn’t hate it. There is a lot of medical jargon in this book and I can see where someone may not enjoy that. Each chapter is told from Emma or Sadie’s POV and sometimes in a di ...more

In case you don’t know, my favorite author is Liane Moriarty. Yeah, she’s big news now after the massive success of Big Little Lies & for good reason! Liane is amazing & I am Really Into her style of writing.

THE QUEEN OF HEARTS BY KIMMERY MARTIN BOOK REVIEW
In case you don’t know, my favorite author is Liane Moriarty. Yeah, she’s big news now after the massive success of Big Little Lies & for good reason! Liane is amazing & I am Really Into her style of writing.

From the very beginning, she hooks you in with her relatable & REAL female characters. Liane keeps the drama right below the surface & it floats along with the story. If I think about all of her books, I can picture most characters clearly, even years later. So when I say that Kimmery Martin’s writing style reminds me of Liane Moriarty, it is the BIGGEST compliment.

ZADIE & EMMA
I love Zadie & Emma’s friendship. Their friendship requires no explaining, no fluff & they are REAL friends- even more like sisters. They are both bad ass doctors & although their personalities are different, readers can see why they work so well together. Quickly, Kimmery introduces a taste of suspense that is carried throughout The Queen of Hearts. I’m living for it. This is seriously my favorite thing in a book. I want suspense right there under my nose, but the heart (no pun intended) of the story to be relationships.

Y’all, this ending had me with baited breath. We’ve all lost a friend due to secrets, a misunderstanding, hurt feelings, etc. Losing a friend that is like your family is so painful. Jessica & I had what we call a break-up & it was so heartwrenching, I can still barely talk about it. I won’t spoil the ending, but Zadie & Emma reach a point where their friendship is tested in a HUGE way. Cue the chest tightening.

THE VERDICT
I am Really Into The Queen of Hearts by Kimmery Martin. You have got to read this book so we can talk about it. Secrets, women, friendships, lies & love- this is the stuff I live for & The Queen of Hearts has it all!

Special thanks to Kimmery Martin, Berkley & NetGalley for providing my copy in exchange for an honest & fair review. ...more

had to read it. I had a friend describe it to me as Greys Anatomy meets Big Little Lies, so I had high expectations for this one. While I will say, it didn’t quite meet my expectations, it was still a fun read none the less. ⁣

Here are three things I liked about it:⁣

1. The theme of friendship between Zadie and Emma (in the beginning) of the book. They supported each other through medical school, and years of friendship after. I can relate to friends helping me get through grad school and all as ...more

Y’all I have been struggling writing this review so stick with me here!
This book is about friendships and how much one can take before it breaks. Can something that happened 10 years ago break a friendship that has made it this long?
I say I struggled with this review because it was my first 5 star read of the year and I wanted to make it to where EVERYONE will read this book! This is about friendships, love, family, and work. The fact that it shows working busy moms, I love that! That is ...more

The Queen of Hearts gave me a bit of a book hangover - it left me turning the characters and plot over in my mind, not quite ready to start anything else. Real-life Dr. Kimmery Martin really created a vivid world that I was completely drawn into. The heart of this book is the friendship between Zadie and Emma, and the book alternates between their perspectives (as well as between med school & the present). Two thumbs up for a book centered around a female friendship, and not just finding a man ( ...more
