You passed me! Lol. Solid 3 stars, I'll probably enjoy. It's been a while since I've read the rest of them. Does the departure from the main characters- America- and the focus on the daughter detract from the book at all? Also, I just finished The Belles. I'm sure you don't want to get invested in another YA Dystopian series, but I think you'd enjoy it as another guilty pleasure read.
Thank you! I added it to my TBR. I like to always keep a couple of guilty pleasures on hand for when life gets to be too much. It's almost like it's a whole other series. You don't necessarily need to have read the the previous 3 but it helps add to the overall story. I always like when series do this and focus on another character after the previous happily ever after. Nora Roberts does that in a lot of her series so it's a writing style I'm already use to. It's almost like a spin off for a TV show.
Hilarious, Charlotte! I’m still waiting for 2 and 3 to arrive from the library. So I can consume Cordon Bleu in peace for the moment (aka the Booker longlist) and then scoff super-sweet ice-cream when the library pays up... Guilty pleasures indeed. And not one that a few gym sessions will help with 😋
Lol, maybe we need to make book-themed workouts after all this guilty pleasure reading. You guys are definitely making me want to finish the series now, haha.
Ha! I do "book" workouts all the time. I live on a big hill and I'll throw on a fun memoir like Tina Fey's or something and walk up and down that sucker. I will say I think #4 and definitely #5 are super short. I think 5 might be the shortest out of all of them. I feel like it took me no time to read it... the review for it coming shortly lol.

The Crown
Yep... I'm still stuck on this series this month. This is the 4th in the series of 5. I can't really say much about it with out giving away the end of the third. So I'm just going to say that it's the same as the rest. A guilty pleasure. I'm enjoying the series and hating myself for it.
I will say Cass tried to make the female character strong in this one but I still found myself rolling my eyes and deep sighing a lot from my annoyance.
On to the 5th and final of the series, The Crown...
