Reading Round Up: September Part 2

Hi Friends! I am a little later than I wanted to be with this one but here is my last round up for September! I really enjoyed all 3 of these books and they were all so different!

She Started It by Sian Gilbert – 4 Stars She Started It follows a group of woman who go to a secluded island for a hen do but not everything is as it seems. This is a book where you are just waiting for them all to die!

A Lady’s Guide to Scandal by Sophie Irwin – 4 Stars Normally I am not a fan of love triangles but I will say that this one worked pretty well for me! Eliza is recently widowed and still in mourning when her late husband’s heir (who happens to be Eliza’s first love) returns home to take over his property. Not wanting to return home to her overbearing family Eliza decides to head to bath for her “health”. While there she befriends Duke Melville who does not have the best reputation. This book was so fun and I am glad that I finally got to it. I also liked that this book addressed race as Melville is of Indian descent and this is a part of his character development. If you are a fa of historicals then I recommend picking this one. Thank you @penguinbooks for my gifted copy!

The Rom-Con by Devon Daniels – 4 Stars This book reminded me of one of my favorite romcoms, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. We are following Cassidy who works for a woman’s magazine and gets the idea to use an article from the 1950’s about how to get a man. At a party one she decides to use a tactic but it backfires and instead ends up talking with Jack who works at their magazine rival. I really enjoyed this one, the writing was great and I was in it from the beginning. I love when a book is a true romcom and makes me laugh a bunch which this one did. I was part of a traveling arc for this one and enjoyed seeing everyone’s highlights and markings. Thank you Berkley Romance and my traveling arc friends for the gifted copy!
