Recent Reads Recap

I am veering from the Top Ten Tuesday Topic this week because I really couldn't think of any books that fit the topic. So I am listing the last ten books I read for fun and that I didn't review on the blog already. 


The Belle of Chatham by Laura Frantz
I gave this one four stars. I was disappointed with the instant love romance thread and it took a lot from the fascinating history.

A Fortunate Miscalculation by Karen Thornell
Three Stars. It was just okay for me. 


Heir of Hope by Morgan L. Busse
Four Stars. I really enjoyed this entire series! 

Marrying the Matchmaker by Jody Hedlund
Four Stars. The best of the series. 

The Light of Stars by Jenelle Hovde
Four Stars. This book is so unique and I enjoyed it!


Awakened by Roseanna M. White
Two Stars. I struggled with this one unfortunately. 


A Bride of Fallen Stars by Victoria McCombs. 
Five stars. Pre-order now! I loved this book!!!!



Man of Shadow and Mist by Michelle Griep
Five stars. Gothic historical romance and a re-read. 


Under the Scottish Sky by Amy Coburn Crawford
Two Stars. This book I just couldn't get into and I really wanted to! 


The Duke's Diary by Ashtyn Newbold
Five star re-read. This one is just fun.

I have Michelle Griep's book and need to read it! The Duke's Diary is on my TBR, but from what you said, it sounds like I should read it sooner rather than later.

I struggled with this topic and did something else too. I love this idea. There are so many book that I haven't reviewed on the blog.
