I am totally loving this series by Nicole Pyland. The characters are engaging and the plot moves well. I will recommend that you read #0 and #1 in the Chicago Series before reading this book. It can stand alone but is so much better when you know all of it, especially to understand the relationship at the center of the story. Looking forward to book #3.

Recently had some great feedback from @Eleanor regarding the 'Fiction & Poetry' Book category/genre.

Do you think that Fiction should be a category in itself, or do you think that fiction books should fit into the other categories/genres?

Would love to hear opinions in the comments to!

Fiction should be a stand-alone category

The Books should fit into other categories

Stands along with "Echoes of the Great Song" as one of only two completely stand-alone novels that Gemmell wrote and, as usual, deals with the concepts of good and evil (with his protaganists quite often straddling both sides of the line) and redemption.

Not the best work by Gemmell that I've read, but it still provides a nice diversion for a day or two.

This is the forth book in this series by this author. This book can be read as a stand alone read. This book has loveable characters that you will fall in love with as you read. This is a lovely story of two people finding love. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

A poor spinoff of the conjuring franchise
Contains spoilers, click to show
If this was a stand alone film not connected to the conjuring franchise, than it might of been good. The only thing connected this film and the conjuring franchise is the priest. He says one line that connects this film and the conjuring film. Im not sure why their had to put this movie in the conjuring universre, but it counts as a spinoff.

Movie Favorite

"Then, my next favorite film is Gary Cooper’s High Noon. Here we’re talking about the one man against many, having to stand alone. And what sticks with me about that movie is that the woman that he loved, who was completely anti-violence, stood up with him, ultimately; and at the end, when all the townspeople had run away, he took that badge off and threw it in the dirt."

Weezie and BeBe are great characters, fun and quirky. (0 more)
Might not work as a stand-alone. (0 more)
Christmas Bliss was the last of my Christmas reads for the year. I have read two others in the series and really like Weezie and BeBe. This time around, Weezie’s getting ready to marry her chef boyfriend, Daniel, but he’s off in New York on a temporary gig at a very swanky restaurant. BeBe’s pregnant and refuses to marry her live-in boyfriend Harry, but she also might still be married to one of her exes. It’s complicated.

It’s a sweet story. There’s not much conflict and the couple of “issues” that crop up are quickly resolved. Weezie and BeBe are great characters, fun, quirky, but I don’t know that this would work as well as a stand-alone. It was nice to already know them and appreciate that they were getting their “happily ever afters.”
