Well Met by Jen DeLuca kept me entertained as I followed the love story of Emily and Simon. Ms. DeLuca's description of the Ren Faire and what goes on behind the scenes makes me want to attend our regional Faire next year. An enjoyable quick read.

For Better and Worse by Margot Hunt proved to be a quick (less than 24 hours) enjoyable read. I have been reading so much nonfiction lately that it was fun to kick back and just get carried away.
