I don't know about you guys, but we had a very eventful December. Lots of record breaking weather and also some good books this month. Did you get any new books for the holidays? I'm not much for buying books, but they're honestly an awesome gift for any age of reader. Did you make a reading goal for 2021? Did you meet it? I think this may be the first year I met my reading goal! Well, let's get down to what I read this month.
"A Very Bossy Christmas"- Kayley Loring
Pretending to be your bosses girlfriend over Christmas shouldn't be that hard. Except when you've been drooling over him ever since you started working for him. Asking your hot assistant to be your fake girlfriend might be the one and only chance you have to hook up without any strings. But is it worth the risk of catching feelings?
This was a very steamy holiday read loaded with quirky Christmas puns. Was it a little predictable? Yes. Were there issues with the writing? I thought so, but overall a fun little smutty read just in time for the holidays.
"Winter Storms"- Elin Hildebrand
This is the third book in the Winter Street Series. I absolutely love this series. I've read a book from this collection every year for the past three years. The Quinn's are a fun and interesting family that get together every year over the holidays at their inn on Nantucket. This series is packed with funny and outlandish family dynamics that are both amusing and sometimes heartbreaking. If you liked the film "The Family Stone" you will love this series. It's an easy read and the books never fail to put me in the Christmas spirit.
"The Sanatorium"- Sarah Pearse
When Elin decides to meet her estranged brother in the Swiss Alps she never thought she'd be investigating a series of murders. Despite the fact that she's taking a break from being a detective, there's a personal connection to the case. Her old friend is a victim or a brutal string murders set in an old Sanatorium. And the hospital's old stories are longing to be told.
This was an insanely creepy book. And the labyrinth of lies surrounding the building and each of the characters makes it doubly interesting. I definitely recommend this book to thriller readers.
"Shiver"- Allie Reynolds
Ten years ago a group of competitive snowboarders met in the French Alps for training and competition. Only one of them didn't come off the glacier that year. Now, ten years later, they gather at the last place they were all together. But instead of a reunion, they're trapped, isolated, and all wondering what really happened to the missing member of their group.
Wow, this book really was awesome. The pacing was phenomenal and I loved every minute of this read. This was a non stop roller coaster from beginning to end. And guess what? No plot holes! I really am overly impressed with this thriller. If you like Lisa Jewell or Lucy Foley you'll want to check this one out.
That's all my reads this month and honestly it was a big hit for me! Did you have any recommendations for me? Did you have a favorite book this year? Anything you're excited about for 2022? Drop me a comment! Here's to the new year! Happy reading book nerds.
