Review: After You by JoJo Moyes

Star Review: 5/5 stars
Recommend: Highly!

This was such a great way to continue Lou's story.
It is a sequel not like any other. With twists and turns you wouldn't expect.
I loved reading as Lou learned to trust herself again. Learned to move on from the past. As well as learning to tell the past to a stranger she notices looks a lot like Will Traynor.
I was heartbroken with the way it was portrayed of Lou's way of coping with loss. But if you really looked at it, everyone has their own way of coping and finding a way to move on.
While reading After You, I had the distinct feeling that Lou was never going to live again. (As Will had told her many times.) however, the more I read, the more I saw her discovering herself, except the past and welcome the future.
JoJo Moyes as a talent of showing you a real life scenario and makes you learn from it. That was what I got from Me Before You and what I got from After You.



You know what my favorite part of Lou's story? In Spring of 2018, we will be able to get book 3!
That's right, Book 3 of Lou's story! JoJo Moyes announced it last month on Facebook! EEECK! I m so excited!

Review: Secret of Camp Whispering Pines by Tara Ellis


Star Rating: 4/5 Stars
Recommend: Yes for your Nancy Drews out there

Here is my extremely short review for Tara Ellis's second book in her Samantha Wolf Mysteries.

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

I was not disappointed. Tara Ellis did it once again. This book not only was just as fun and fast paced as the first book, but it was another good mystery.
I was so excited to get a message from Tara, asking me to read this book for an honest review, since I loved the first one. Sammantha Wolf reminds me of a younger, modern Nancy Drew. I highly recommend this book to any kids or younger teens who loved Nancy Drew.
Forgive me for the short review, but I just loved it so much, I can't write it down!

Review: The Mystery of Hollow Inn by Tara Ellis

Star Rating: 4/5 Stars
Recommend: Great for Middle School Grade

I reached out to Ms. Ellis on GoodReads when she first came out with this book. She was looking for reviewers who was willing to read her new middle school level mystery novel.
I was so thrilled to get a chance to read it because I LOVE (still do) Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. So I gave this book a chance and love it! I highly recommend if you have a middle school grade reader who loves Nancy Drew.

So here is my short and quick review!

Summary:
