Audiobook Review: Christmas at Frozen Falls

Christmas at Frozen Falls

Author: Kiley Dunbar

Publisher: Saga Egmont Audio

⭐⭐⭐💫

Christmas at Frozen Falls follows Sylvie, whose Christmas isn't turning out quite as planned after her fiance breaks up with her a week before their wedding. With the help of her friend Nari, Sylvie starts to pick up the pieces by planning a trip to Frozen Falls, which also happens to be the hometown of her ex-boyfriend Stellan. When the two are reunited, the sparks begin to fly again, and Sylvie may end up with a happy holiday after all.

Christmas at Frozen Falls has a perfect setting for the holidays: cold, snowy, and a chance of northern lights. So it's off to a great start. I liked the story of Sylvie going to Frozen Falls instead of staying home and licking her wounds (her ex-fiance is certainly no prize to cry over!). The second chance romance between her and Stellan is sweet and I enjoyed listening to it. While I liked the story as a whole, I feel that some of the magic was lost for me in the audiobook version. The narrator is great, but I personally think I would like to give this book a shot again in print form. Christmas at Frozen Falls is a nice second chance romance with a great setting for the holidays. 3.5 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley and Saga Egmont Audio for this ARC; this is my honest and voluntary review.

Only You in Everything review

-
Happy Pub Day to Only You in Everything by Jennifer Ann Shore! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only You in Everything is the story of Cameron, an artist who is spending the summer before college working at a summer camp. And she just so happens to be working right alongside her childhood friend and longtime crush Will. Will this be the summer that Will finally returns Cameron's feelings, or will her hopes remain unrequited as she enters her first year of college? Only You in Everything is the fifth book I have read by Jennifer Ann Shore and I think this one just might be my favorite so far. I adored the summer camp setting; it gave me some nice trips down memory lane and offered a fun escape. Cameron was great as a lead and I liked how the book focused on her as a whole person just as much as it did the romance aspect of the book. The relationship between Cameron and Will had a lot to it, and their road was definitely not straightforward. I am always in need of good YA books in my life, and Only You in Ever...

What If Jesus Was Serious about the Church?

What If Jesus Was Serious about the Church? by Skye Jethani ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What If Jesus Was Serious about the Church is a devotional style book that tackles a lot topics surrounding the current state of the church. The book looks at the issues of lack of trust and people leaving the church, and turns to Scripture to try to address what is going wrong and what followers of Christ should focus on to change these problems. I started listening to The Holy Post podcast this year, which is one of the main reasons I was interested in reading this book. The chapters were short, easy to follow, and fell in line with a lot of what is presented on the podcast, and I liked the illustrations. My main critique is that I feel like the book almost would have been better suited as a book with longer chapters that went deeper into the topics rather than a devotional style book. That being said, I liked reading What If Jesus Was Serious about the Church and am interested in reading the previous books in the...

All That Fills Us is out today!

-
Finally, one of my favorite books of the year (so far) publishes today, and I am beyond excited to share my review. All That Fills Us is exceptional and outstanding, and I can't wait for readers to check this one out.  All That Fills Us by Autumn Lytle ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ All That Fills Us is the story of Mel, a girl with an out of control eating disorder that has landed her in the hospital multiple times. With her family and doctors at the the end of their rope, Mel decides to try to heal in her own way first: by hiking from Grand Rapids to Mount Ranier National Park. The trip would be difficult for the healthiest of people, and Mel will need to rely on the kindness of strangers to get her through this trek. All That Fills Us is such a great book. Great does not even begin to described how much I loved this book, it is easily one of the best books I have read in a long time. Mel is such a good lead that goes through so much throughout her journey: the reader will feel for her yet get so fr...
