I inhaled this audiobook. I recommended it to a friend when I was about 15% in – risky, I know – and then I reinforced that recommendation a few times as I continued listening. I think she wanted me to calm down. Homemaker is as much a mystery as it is about the cost of being in a marriage that functions like a shrinking cage, with the key held by an emotionally immature man.

I picked this book up only because I loved Adler’s second book, Happy Medium. (I haven’t read her first yet) For this book, I didn’t feel particularly moved by the blurb.

Welcome back, everyone! There’s only one non-fiction title this time. That’s practically unheard of with Get Rec’d. There’s also a graphic novel, another romance author dabbling in mystery, and a historical romance with a bit of a twist. Can’t wait to hear what people think of that one in particular. Do you have any recommendations you’d like to share? Leave them in the comments!

RECOMMENDED: Real Men Knit by Kwana Jackson is $1.99! Shana and Carrie jointly reviewed this one and gave it a B:
This is a character-focused book and is all about the romance between Jesse and Kerry, as well as the importance of family, friendship, and community. Also there’s a lot of knitting.

Every now and again, I get to do a crossover episode with the Heaving Bosoms podcast. We pick a truly bonkers sexy book, and recap it across two shows. In this case – it’s three shows. Hi Heaving Bosoms listeners! I’m so happy you’re here! This time, Melody asked if I had any suggestions for a title. YES I DID. A Soul to Keep: Duskwalker Brides: Book One by Opal Reyne was taking up a … Continue reading 672. Part III of A Soul to Keep with Heaving Bosoms →
