My Week in Books // 5-13-21

Don’t you love when you have a good reading week?

I read two books last week and they both knocked it out of the park!

*** Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead

I chose this as my May Spotlight book, so you can read all about it here!

And, in case you’re curious, here’s my other monthly Spotlight posts from this year:

• April Spotlight // Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
• March Spotlight // The Final Revival of Opal and Nev by Dawnie Walton
• February Spotlight // Infinite Country by Patricia Engel
• January Spotlight // The Prophets by Robert Jones, Jr.

People We Meet On Vacation by Emily Henry

I read Beach Read last year – didn’t hate it, didn’t love it…so I was obviously hesitant to pick up People We Meet On Vacation, but after seeing so many positive reviews, I added it to my Book of the Month box (click here if you’re interested in joining using my affiliate link).

I loved the story, but I adored the relationship between Poppy and Alex…their witty banter and inside jokes back and forth totally made the book for me. They were such a breath of fresh air in the romance genre and I only wish I could read it again for the first time. The travel destinations were so much fun and I gained a lot of ideas for future vacations with my husband! 😉 I absolutely LOVED this book…and will definitely be recommending it to everyone!
