Exceptional Bordering On Transcendental, With A Few Flaws. If you, like me, read David French's 2020 book Divided We Fall and were utterly *terrified* of just how real its scenarios sounded (particularly given that one of them later began to become true)... you need to read this book. If you, like me, read

More Noir Than Thriller. This is a *great* detective story set in pre-D-Day 1944 San Francisco that truly reads as more of a noir than an actual thriller. There is quite a bit of mystery and intrigu

For this blog tour, we're looking at another Hallmarkie type Christmas tale done exactly as fans of such tales expect. For this blog tour, we're looking at The Book Club Hotel by Sarah Morgan.
Here's what I had to say on the review sites (Goodreads, TheStoryGraph, BookHype):
Solid Sarah Morgan Christmas Tale. For long time fans of Morgan or those who have never heard of her, know that this particular tale is *exactly* the type of tale she always tells for Christmas, at least in my few years' experience reading her books. In this particular case, it is long time friends - each with their own secrets they've been hiding from the others - reuniting for Christmas at a small town bed and breakfast... that happens to have some needs of its own that these three friends just so happen to be particularly well suited to help with. You've got the Hallmarkie charm and at least one romance thread, you've got the female friends b[Continue Reading]
