A River Enchanted, by Rebecca Ross, is a careful, steady book full of atmosphere and surprising depth. “Earnest” is a word I might use to describe the characters, tone, and romance – but not at all dry or dull.
A River Enchanted, by Rebecca Ross
Anatomy: A Love Story, by Dana Schwartz
Anatomy: A Love Story, by Dana Schwartz, was really enjoyable! I will say the big “reveals” were easy to piece together early in the book, which diminished a lot of the suspense for me. Still, getting there was fun.
The Second Blind Son, by Amy Harmon
I find Amy Harmon’s writing consistently enjoyable. She is particularly good at developing engaging characters and a well-paced story, even if it spans several years, as is the case with her book The Second Blind Son.
The Once and Future Witches, by Alix E. Harrow
Alix E. Harrow’s The Once and Future Witches is beautifully written, with an adept combination of several themes and genres – historical fiction, feminism, witchcraft, family, and even coming-of-age.
Moxie, by Jennifer Mathieu
Although Jennifer Mathieu’s Moxie is a little over-stuffed with feminist issues, the book’s mission is accomplished with a good dose of humor and heart.
