I Couldn't Love You More by Jillian Medoff

I recently read I Couldn't Love You More by Jillian Medoff. This book was significantly more than I expected. This book focuses on 2 sets of three sisters. The first is Eliot Gordon, Sylvia, and Maggie. They are products of a divorced couple. The father has not been in the picture for most of their lives. The second set are Eliots step children and child, Gail, Hailey & Charlotte.  

This book shows the true trials and strengths of a family and the need to come together when bad things occur. It shows everyone's love despite difficulties within the family. Love always prevails! This book takes everyone on an emotional roller coaster that had me wanting more the entire time. One night I had a very hard time putting it down even though I kept dozing off while reading it (it was 1 in the morning at this point). This book was very well written. I am looking forward to reading Ms. Medoff's future work.

A Girl Like You by Maria Geraci

I recently read A Girl Like You by Maria Geraci. The book was very well written. The characters are very well developed. The story follows Emma Frazier, a reporter for a magazine as she deals with love and friends. During a night out she over hears her friend refer to her as the "ugly friend" which sparks her to impress her boss with whom she is infatuated. Emma begins to reconnect with friends from high school one of which she ends up dating the other leads to big life changes for the person. 

The story was truly enjoyable. I loved that the characters in this book can very easily be someone everyone knows. Unlike many other books this book involves a lesbian couple (Emma's mothers). It was nice to see this situation in a book. It makes it seem like this could be anyone's family.

Cosmo's Fifty-One Shades of Blonde

I recently read Cosmos Fifty One Shades of Blonde. I know that this must be a parade of Fifty Shades of Grey, however being one of a few people who refuses to read that book I would not know for sure. As far as the book I did read, it was a short story that was pretty well written, the only thing missing was a plot. The story jumped directly to sex without much background or story first. I would have liked to have a story before I read about two people jumping into bed. The potential for this to be a decent story is there, the author just needed to build it up more. Overall the entire story can be read in a half hour, but if something with better reviews comes along I highly suggest reading that instead.

The First Husband by Laura Dave

I recently read The First Husband by Laura Dave. I had heard fantastic things about this book and was very excited to read it. The book follows Annie Adams who is a travel writer for a magazine. After dating a man for several years she breaks up with him and marries someone she barely knows, thus changing her entire life. They move to a new town where she does not know any one. Happiness does not last forever as her life starts to spiral out of control.


This book was very well written. I did not enjoy it as much as I hoped. While the event in the story can happen, they were not very relatable to real life for me. She rushed into a life that she was not ready for so of course their would be challenges. The story it self was light, and comedic at times. This would be a good beach read.


Everyone check it out and post your thoughts when you are finished!
