My Book Acquisitions: A Review of My Recent Reads

I've recently acquired a large number of books that I'm excited to read and share my thoughts with you all. Let's start with "It's Not You, It's Me" by the author whose name was not mentioned. This book is about a guy who has a job where he gets to interrupt weddings if his client hires him to find out if their partner has been cheating. The twist is that the client wants to get married despite discovering their partner's infidelity. As the story progresses, this guy teams up with another girl and they work together to solve these problems. Unfortunately, I just didn't click with this one. It was a bit of a disappointment, but I'm sure many people love it.

I also have "Granite Harbor" by Peter Nichols, which came with a bookmark featuring an anatomy of a frog that's surprisingly not creepy at all. This book is a mystery set in a small town in coastal Maine where a serial killer has been targeting the locals. The title suggests that the town is shaken to its core, but I'm not sure what to expect from this one. I haven't heard much about it before, so I'll have to make up my mind later on.

Next up is "First Down" by Grace Riley, which I picked up on a whim. It's a new adult romance novel that follows James and Beex, who meet when James needs help with tutoring and Beex needs assistance in getting rid of her ex-boyfriend. They agree to fake-date, and things get interesting from there. The book was just okay - not particularly memorable or exciting - but if you're looking for a cute sports romance, it might be worth checking out.

I also have "Swift and Saddled" by the same author as "First Down", which is part of the "Done and Dusted" series. I'll admit that I wasn't blown away by the first book in this series, but the cover art for this one has really piqued my interest. The design features a vintage Western style that looks like it's straight out of an old-fashioned movie poster. While I'm not super excited about this one, I do hope to enjoy it more than the previous installment.

Last but not least, I have two book-of-the-month selections: "Just for the Summer" by Abby Hanes and "The Reappearance of Rachel Price" by Holly Jackson. The first book is a romance novel that follows two characters who think they're cursed when it comes to love. They decide to fake-dating each other as a way to break their curse, but things get complicated from there. I loved this book - it's adorable and has a lot of heart. If you're looking for a light, fun read, I highly recommend checking this one out.

Holly Jackson is also the author of "The Good Girls' Guide to Murder" series, which I've enjoyed reading up until now (I only read the first two books, so we'll have to see if I'll continue with the third). Her latest book, "Reappearance", is a standalone novel about a teenage girl whose mother disappeared when she was two years old. The mother reappears suddenly, and the family sets out to uncover what really happened all those years ago. I'm not sure how much of it will hold my interest, but I do enjoy Holly Jackson's mystery novels.

Unfortunately, I did DNF (did not finish) "Five Survive" by another author. While I've enjoyed this series in the past, something about this book didn't quite work for me. Let's just say we'll have to wait and see if the next installment in the series will win me over.

Overall, I'm excited to dive into these new books and share my thoughts with you all. Whether they turn out to be winners or flops remains to be seen - but one thing is certain: I'm eager to get lost in their pages!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello everyone my name is Heather and welcome to the channel bookables and welcome to another book haul I have a stack of books I have right here I usually try to categorize them between books I've bought and books I received but this time I didn't we're just going to go with the stack and whatever is in the stack that's next will be what I talk about I'll let you know if I've purchased it or I've gotten it either from a publisher a book box things like that either way it's a moderately sized book haul it's not really huge it's not tiny I'd say it's like a good sweet spot for not adding too many books to my TBR so yeah let's get into it the first two books I want to talk about are actually non-fiction books that I bought that I thought I would share with you first up I have untangle your emotions by Jenny Allen she is a Christian non-fiction writer I have read I want to say this is my either third or fourth book by her but this one is naming what you feel and knowing what to do about it I really love her books they're great and so I have just started this one so I can't tell you much about it um so I'm really enjoying it the other one I bought is the Bible in 52 weeks this is a year-long Bible study for women and I am on just started week three so this is what I've been doing because I'm a Christian I've told you guys this many times and I haven't really studied the Bible as I should so I'm starting to get into that and this is really helping me with that I just finished um the first book of the Bible so that's really awesome it just gives you a few chapters each week it gives you a little lesson and it's really easy and I really enjoy it so I've been really loving these two um nightly and I think they're great I'll link them down below in case you're interested now moving on to some books I bought I believe this one is the rule book by Sarah Adams this is her companion novel to the cheat sheet which I read last year did I read last year yes and I liked it but man I loved the rule book I don't know what it is now about Sarah Adams like when I read the cheat shei and I read when in Rome I thought they were okay I was like I don't kind of get the Sarah Adams hype but then I read practice makes perfect in the rule book and I'm like crap I get it now I love it and I really have loved both of them I've given them a five out of five this one is about Derrick who was part of the friend group in the first book he's um a tight end for the LA sharks fictional um and he gets injured and he's trying to get his way back into the season and he gets a new assistant and who is assistant but Nora and he they are actually College exes they were in this huge amazing relationship and they broke up and now they're back you know he's she's his agent he's trying to make her life kind of hard so he'll social quit and they both still have feelings for each other it is closed door romance that means no steaming times and it's super cute Second Chance romance and I ate this junk up you just want some cutesy cotton candy books Sarah Adams has got you covered I love them um another book I recently bought is Wild Love by Elsie silver this is book one in her new series I forget what the series is called Rose Hill I believe the Rose Hill series it's even got a little map I honestly don't know much about it because again like Sarah Adams I wasn't getting the LC silver hype cuz she has the chestnut spring series which she is really known for and the first book of that is flaw and I liked it I thought it was okay then I read heartless freaking loved it so I was like crap I need to finish the series and then when I heard she had a new one coming out I had to buy it this is she's been driving him wild for years the good kind of wild the bad kind of wild so I'm guessing this is Another Second Chance romance set in the country western type of thing I'm here for it speaking of setting outside I also bought a th hours outside by Jenny urick this is an Instagram account that is literally what it's called 1,000 hours outside there's been a lot of studies shown that you know if you spend a lot of time outside is really good for you and I'm a really full proponent of that whenever it's nice weather I am outside I'm my kids are outside I want them to get vitamin D it's good for you it's just good to be outside and so that's why I bought this because this is full of activities not only that but she has categorized it into season so in case you live somewhere where it snows and it's really cold she has some good outdoor activities to do um and then she has spring summer all that kind of stuff and I think that's really awesome I'm definitely going to be using some of this especially with my younger um with my youngest child so I'm really excited for it because I I want to say I spend 1,000 hours outside every day I at least when weather's nice I'm not kidding it's not all at once but we probably spend up to four to five hours outside um and I love that because I think it's really beneficial to your mental health I know that it helps me out a ton I can't say that for everybody but it helps me out and I think it helps my kids with energy and all that kind of stuff okay moving into some books that I got sent I got sent from Bloom say you swear by Megan brand I think this is a republished one it says they say First Love lasts forever I hope they're wrong okay it says her brother's best friend broke her heart what happens when his new teammate wants to put it back together okay so teammate what is this exactly oh quarterback okay I don't know if this is a new adult it's a pretty freaking lengthy one it is oh my gosh you 500 pages it is literally like 510 pages that is a sick freaking romance I haven't heard anything about this so if you've heard about it let me know what I like it would I not I've been reading a lot of sports romances lately I'm not mad about it I have another one I bought because book talk made me buy it and that is Butcher and Blackbird by Bren Weaver this is like about two serial killers that fall in love and I am interested it says the viral friends to lovers dark romantic comedy full of murder chaos and sizzling chemistry let me read you the trigger warnings in the front because when I saw it I was like okay eyeballs and eye sockets amateur surgery skin ornaments chainsaw aess knives scaffold lots of are lots of sharp objects accidental cannibalism not so accid not so accidental cannibalism questionable use of a mummify corpse lobotomized manservant in advised use of kitchen implements um detailed steamy scenes I I don't know also there's a playlist in it which is always really interesting I suffice to say I am very nervous to read it but hopefully I'll like it if I do I don't know what that says about me I don't know moving on um another book I bought the teacher by Freedom mcfaden this would be my second Freedom mcfaden book I read the inmate last year it was bizarre I can see when people love Freeda mcfaden she is very very easy to read you can fly through her books with no problem at all but I don't think the writing is really there this one is about a teacher I think I don't know with Thrillers I try to go into them not knowing much and honestly I haven't read a ton of Thrillers this year so we'll see if I get to it just in my buying pile I guess cuz I also bought Sarah Hoggle newest novel Old Flames new Fortune I have read all of Sarah Hogle books before and I think I like them they're cute um this one is I don't know I think it's about like a small magical town and I don't a fake dating scheme I don't know it just seems cute and I'm really into cute novels lately I think because you know sometimes when life is just a little bit too tough you kind of Escape in um fiction and I do that a lot and I do that with like a lot of lighter and happier book so I'm hoping this one fits the bill in that regard then another book I bought is night shift by Crown again just because it seems like a super cute one it's a college bookor and the campus basketball star share an encounter in the library Stacks things get complicated it's a new adult one it seems cute we'll have to see I like to have a lot of really cute books on my TBR pile why I don't know because I'm always like I'll pick them up speaking of another cute book I bought Baker's Magic by Jay Penner this is like a cozy fantasy and I've learned that I'm not into cozy Mysteries I've read a few and I'm just not that's not for me that's

friendship connecting so actually who comes to um East rescue is Will's older brother his name is Shep and he helps out a lot so I think it's got to do a lot with that it says a surprise pregnancy

her mom just shows up again and they're trying to figure out what exactly happened like 17 years ago who knows nobody and it kind of goes from there I really like Holly Jackson's ya Mysteries which I don't love a ton of ya ones but Holly Jackson has cracked the formula I think I will say that but then I dnfed five survive which came out last year so we'll have to see actually on that but either way those are all the books I have acquired recently quite a lot I'm excited for a lot of them and I can't wait to read them if you have any thoughts on them please let me know down in the comments as always thank you so much for watching and I will see you in my next video bye\n"
