Just under the wire, here are the books I read last month—and my honest thoughts about them. Happy reading! Colorfully yours, Haley Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid—4/5 Surf, sand, and siblings: the recipe for a very solid beach read. From the ‘80s to the present day, we learn about the famous Riva family’s secrets—and […]
I’m fully aware that I owe you guys both my May and my June reads—sorry—but this one should occupy you for a while. So head to your local library or bookstore on the way to the beach and get reading! Colorfully yours, Haley Good Girl, Bad Blood by Holly Jackson—4/5 In all honesty, I usually […]
Me, late with a blog post? Shocking! This is definitely the overall highest-rated roundup I’ve posted so far, so get to the library ASAP, friends. Happy reading!
