Act Your Age, Eve Brown

The Brown Sisters, Book #3

by Talia Hibert

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

I think Eve is my favourite of the Brown sisters!

Eve Brown lives her life to the beat of her own tune… and that tune keeps changing. She doesn’t have a passion or drive like her sisters and can’t seem to find a place for herself out in the world, either with friends or career-wise. So when her latest career venture blows up in her faced she scores the whole thing, her parents tell 25 year old Eve, that they have had enough!

Eve flees her family home and drive out of the city until a quaint town catches her eye. She stops for a meal and in classic Eve form ends up with a new job as the chef for a B&B! Can she make this into something, or os this and the handsome Inn owner just another one hit wonder on the playlist of Eve’s life?

I fell for the quirky Eve from the get go! Her antics had me laughing throughout the book, and the addition of Jacob as the Strat guy in this comedy duo only made it better! These two were awkward, adorable and addictive!

This book was exceptionally entertaining, but there was a serious element as well. Jacob is on the Autism spectrum. Jacob’s neurodiversity was well represented and respectfully approached. I appreciated how this element of his character shaped who he was and Ehow that affected his relationship with Eve.

This was a fun read and I feel it really wrapped up the Brown Sister trilogy on a high note. I loved seeing the Chloe and Dani back living their HEA’s. This book can also easily be read as a standalone.

Act Your Age, Eve Brown by Talia Hibert is scheduled to release March 9th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from HarperCollins Publishers, Avon Books through Edelweiss+. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Art of Taxidermy

by Sharon Kernot I didn’t know what I was getting when I picked out this book. When I first opened this book and started to read, I was pleasantly surprised. The author, has written this novel in verse and the flow of the writing really goes with and helps tell the story. The Art of Taxidermy tells a gripping and emotional story about love of family and great loss. The themes are woven through the coming of age of young Lottie, along with her immigrant family in Australia after the second world war. I was taken in by this book from the first page and was made to feel deeply for Lottie and this family. Sharon Kernot has written a beautiful book and I can not highly recommend it enough. This is a must read. The Art of Taxidermy by Sharon Kernot is due to release August 23rd, 2019. I received a complimentary copy of this book from the Text Publishing Company through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 #TheArtOfTaxidermy #sharonkern...

The Outlaw's Daughter

The Outlaw’s Daughter Haywire Bride Series #3 by Margaret Brownley ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 A year old stage robbery has brought Texas Ranger, Matt Taggert to the small town of Haywire. While investigating his lead he he discovers that his prime suspect died just days after the stage coach robbery and is the tow’s local hero… not only that, he has left behind a beautiful widow and 2 children. Ellie-May is no stranger to public scorn, as the daughter of an outlaw , she knows what the Rangers accusations against her deceased husband will do to her family and children. For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms! This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me! ...

Here to Stay

Here to Stay by Adriana Herrara ⭐⭐⭐ /5 Adrianna Herraara has a remarkable way of capturing the personality and spirit of her New Yorker characters… even when they aren’t in their native New York! The friendships created and the corresponding camaraderie are what stood out to me the most in this book. It was fun to watch these ex-pat New Yorkers come together in their new home and bond. As for the romance, I found it a bit forced. Julia is on a dating sabbatical and not looking for a man… Rocco is only in Dallas working fro the men trying to cut funding and close Julia’s charitable foundation that she works for. These two should be enemies, but they are friends… the tension between them is pretty high, but they both know they are on opposite sides… I found it unsatisfying… size they were workplace enemies, their friendship muddied the waters. I found it hard to get behind their romance. On another side, I really enjoyed the representation of the charitabl...
