My Review

A novella in the Business of Love collection made no sense to me, even if it was a sweet, clean Regency romance. I gave it a 2.5** rating, and cannot recommend it.


Ashbrook Abbey by Heather Chapman

Love in the Wager by Kasey Stockton is horrid. Book #4 in the Women of Worth series had a heroine that was not likeable. I don't even know why I finished this book. I gave it 1.5* rating.

Two graphic novels about two incredible historical women. Unfortunately, both books don't do justice to them. They are worth reading for the facts, though.

1. Surrounded: America’s First School for Black Girls, 1832 by Wilfrid Lupano

2. The Incredible Nellie Bly: Journalist, Investigator, Feminist, and Philanthropist by Luciana Cimino

Awful that you read two disappointing novels. I hope you are reading a 5* now!

Thanks! I sure did, Dorie. Posted a 5-star review yesterday, though I have yet to update it here. 2025 is turning out to have a scarcity of 5 stars! :)
