Review: P.S. I Still Love You

P.S. I Still Love You P.S. I Still Love You by Jenny Han
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The sequel To All the Boys I've Loved Before. Lara Jean has now fallen for Peter and enjoying her junior year of high school. Her sister is still home on college break and have mended their relationship. Kitty is as sassy as ever. Everything seems to be working out great!

Until Lara Jean receives a letter from one of her letter recipients, John. Another boy, another adventure - what's a girl to do?

Witty and just as enjoyable as book one. Definitely more mature with language and content than book 1 which makes me recommend it for high school.

Review: Joyous Detox: Your Complete Plan and Cookbook to Be Vibrant Every Day

Joyous Detox: Your Complete Plan and Cookbook to Be Vibrant Every Day Joyous Detox: Your Complete Plan and Cookbook to Be Vibrant Every Day by Joy McCarthy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A perfect companion to Joyous Health. While Joyous Health teaches about nutrition, Joyous Detox gives more recipes to living a "joyous" life. I've already made a number of these recipes! Last night's Mini pumpkin muffins with mini chocolate chips was a huge hit!

Review: Joyous Health: Eat and Live Well Without Dieting

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great book about nutrition and gut health. I've been trying a number of the recipes after my sister-in-law brought one to a family gathering. These recipes are mostly gluten free with some vegetarian options/sides. Many also support detoxification as well. Delicious and nutritious foods!

Review: The Unexpected Everything

The Unexpected Everything The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoy author Morgan Matson so much! I wish she was writing when I was in high school. Everything about her books scream fun, summer and friendship. Every time I pick up one of her books, I read it as slow as possible to take it all in. What is most admirable about this author is her authenticity to friendship without any mean girl drama. What it truly friendship!

Andie's summer before senior year is going to be great! She has 3 close friends, Palmer, Toby & Bri. Palmer's boyfriend is also part of the group, but know when the girls need their time together. Andie is planning on going into a summer pre-med program to have something else to add to her list of accomplishments when she starts applying to colleges.

That is until Andie's summer comes to a screeching halt. Andie's father is being investigated of wrongdoings in congress and has had to take some time off. Andie is now facing a curfew - which she has never had to follow and a father who is around every corner in the house. To make it more tense, Andie and her father haven't had much of a relationship since her mother passed away 6 years ago from cancer and her father fell deeper into politics.

Due to her father's political accusations her summer premed program has been ripped out from under her! What is a girl to do when she already had the perfect summer planned?

A surprising job as a dog walker, fun with her friends all summer and of course spotting a cute guy who may end up as more than just a summer fling!
