I've been reading a lot of Goodreads' "MM Romance" Group shorts of late, this being the fourth? in the last week or so, and I've liked them all.
With this one I have to admit that if it had just been the gig, the confession and the sex I would have given it five stars.
But since it was a little longer than that and we met the rest of the band and a few other people I'm going to give it four stars.
It was cute!

Interesting character study and story told through this family's three different viewpoints during the mother's final weeks (months?) of life. I would have given it a four until the last "chapter" and had to drop my rating as I didn't care for the ending. I will give Holly Brown another go in the future.

This book was very interesting. You don't have to buy into the whole Jungian interpretations to enjoy it. Some of it resonated with me, and some of it didn't, but, as a literature major, I found it fascinating, and I loved the myths/stories alone. I gave it four stars because it was too repetitive at times for my liking.

My mom gave me this book, shortly after I lost my beagle baby to cancer. It's a very nice little book for a keepsake. It has a presentation page, and a nice hardcover. The content is simple, but inspiring. I have it four stars because I would have liked it to have some colored pictures, or something throughout the book.

I don't seem to be having much luck with my books this year so far. None of the four books i've read yet have rated higher than 3 stars.
This one started good but then I started to lose interest. It didn't go as I expected but I carried on and it didn't spark anything in me. I won't be continuing the series.

This book had some holes in the plot but not enough to sink it. The characters made up for what was lacking and since this is a character driven story it worked. Brooke did a good job describing anxiety issues and that made Giselle seem more authentic. This gets four stars from me because despite the short fallings it was still a pleasure to read.

When I learned that Michelle Hoover based this historical fiction novel on a true family story about two girls who suddenly disappeared from their rural family home, I knew I had to read it. Find out why I have this book a strong four out of five stars in my review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/04/25/the-lost-and-what-they-find/

All the Broken Places by Anise Eden
Four Stars
This book was written really well. The author gave details and meanings to things we wouldn’t know. Cate is a promising therapist but she can’t seem to get over the death of her mother and her new found empathy. I didn’t really understand her character. She wanted help but was the road block that kept getting in the helps way. The story starts off really slow for me. There isn’t much build up or suspense. Cate's character felt lacking. Ben seem out of place in the story. Like he was the leader but not really the leader. I didn’t really understand the story concept. The flow of the story was really good it was very consistent. I give it four stars because it might not be a book I overly enjoyed someone else might love it. The characters were simple. I know I will read book two just because I want to know what happens next.
