RECOMMENDED: The Monsters We Defy by Leslye Penelope is $2.99! Sarah read this one and gave it a B:
I liked the painstaking and careful character development of the first half more than the zoomy-zoom plot of the second half, but the foundation of historical fiction and incredible detail coupled with folk magic, ghosts, and negotiating with spirits made this an exceptionally fun, absorbing, and thoughtful story.
RECOMMENDED: The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen is still $2.99! Sarah loved this one and gave it an A-:
If you like fantasy with characters that might sound like your neighbors sometimes, in a world with big stakes and little stakes and magical talking animals who deliver the mail, and especially if you like epistolary novels that lead to characters becoming more of themselves, you’ll like this undertaking. (Bad dum bum.)
Forget Met Not by Julie Soto is $3.99! This is a contemporary romance debut and I mentioned this one on a previous Hide Your Wallet. I liked this one! The book does switch between past and current events to show more of the main couple’s previous history, but I understand it could be a jarring format for the reader.
The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston is $4.99! I don’t believe we’ve ever had this one on sale before. Carrie reviewed this and gave it C, nothing that she was very confused by this one. Do you feel the same?
Georgie, All Along by Kate Clayborn is $1.99! I’ve had several friends read this one and mention it brought them to tears. Have you read it?
The Duchess Hunt by Lorraine Heath is $1.99! This is book two in the Once Upon a Dukedom series and wow, she’s about to be tits out in that field. The heroine is also named Penelope Pettypeace, which is a mouthful.
Midnight Duet by Jen Comfort is $2.49 at Amazon! I mentioned this on a previous Hide Your Wallet and was excited for this Phantom of the Opera retelling. However, I remember reading comment somewhere that it didn’t live up to the hype. Did you read it?
RECOMMENDED: The Bride Test by Helen Hoang is $1.99! I’m hoping this isn’t a deal leftover from the weekend. I loved this book so much and gave it an A-:
The Bride Test is so beautiful and Hoang was right when she said it was impossible not to love Esme. She’s tenacious and battles against her fear of failure, of judgement, and of her own self-doubt, to become this confident and self-assured woman. This Bride Test has only solidified my love for Hoang’s romances; they are truly a gift to the genre.
If Only You by Chloe Liese is $1.99! This is book six in the Bergman Brothers series. The series has been highly recommended by the community and their illustrated covers had an upgrade recently. I love the detail!
The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon is $1.99! I’m unsure if this is a leftover Kindle Daily Deal from yesterday. Catherine read this one and gave it a B-:
There was some lovely writing, some fantastic banter, and I really did like Shay and Dominic together. They had terrific chemistry and the sort of teasing relationship that makes me very happy, because it means there is a firm foundation of friendship underneath the romance.
The Minuscule Mansion of Myra Malone by Audrey Burges is $1.99! I believe this was my pick on a previous Hide Your Wallet and I was really intrigued by the concept. However, I never got around to reading it; ain’t that just the way.
