10 -- Author's Last Name Is Also A First Name

Blood of My Monster by Rina Kent

The Perfect Marriage

I read Happy Place by Emily Henry.
This was such a good book. I was getting pretty frustrated midway through by the lack of communication between the main characters. It seemed like such a simple conversation, but it took FOREVER to get to that point. And it WAS WORTH IT. 5 stars.
I 100% think it's worth the read. If you have not read an Emily Henry, I suggest this one. This was my first Emily Henry book.

I read Heir of Storms by Lauryn Hamilton Murray. Both her last names could also be first names!
