Stay home 24 in 48 Readthon

Four Book Reviews 📚

This past weekend I participated in the #stayhome24in48 readathon challenge. I loved it, and I was able to finish all four books I set out to!

I read Charleston Green by Stephanie Alexander first! This was such a fun read! The main character Tipsy Collins is clairvoyant and can see, hear, and speak to spirits. I’ve often wondered about all of the spirits in Charleston and what they would say if I could talk to them. Stephanie captures the spirit of Charleston perfectly!

Next up was Meet Your Baker by Ellie Alexander! I love a good cozy mystery more than anything, and this book absolutely fits the bill. The recipes that the main character, Juliet “Jules” Capshaw, shares throughout are mouthwatering, and the murder mystery is captivating. Her books remind me of JoAnne Fluke’s and that is a big compliment! Stay tuned to hear more about this book from Getting Booked Podcast next month.

Next up was a read that all my 90s babies definitely can get behind! One Evil Summer by R.L. Stine. This book is part of the Fear Street series, so you know it’s spooky. It was a quick read, but so fun to step back in time and read about Amanda Conklin’s experience with dealing with the evil nanny, Chrissy.

Lastly, I read Four Trials by John Edwards. This book focuses on four of John Edwards’s landmark cases. This is a book that every young lawyer should be required to read before practicing. It details the trials and the buildup to each trial. I really enjoyed reading this!
