Books we loved, but had small issues with. A solid book with great writing and well developed characters and plot. A page-turner and enjoyable read. Some issues could include the character or plot development, disappointing endings, pacing, and style. Would recommend regardless of outside interest in the genre, plot, or setting.

Books that are absolutely breathtaking and memorable. We stay up all night reading these books. The themes and main pionts stay with us for a long time. The plot line holds our attention and is unique. The characters are memorable and have distinct voices. These books are a must read for anyone and everyone, regardless of outside interest in the genre, plot, or setting. Highly recommended!
