RECOMMENDED: My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix is $2.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and Amazon just dropped their movie adaptation on Prime Video. Carrie reviewed this and gave it a B+:
This particular horror story is a love letter to the 1980s and to the power of friendship between women. The ending is very awesome. But also very gross, so be prepared.
Starry-Eyed Love by Helena Hunting is $1.99! This is book two in the Spark House series, which features a group of friends who run like an events space. I feel like Hunting is a hit or mess author. What do you think?
RECOMMENDED: Royal Holiday by Jasmine Guillory is $1.99 and a Kindle Daily Deal! Maya loved this one and gave it an A:
In the end, this story is overwhelmingly about saying yes to good things put directly in your path. If all you want to do is wrap yourself up in a Christmas love story with two adults just admirably adulting all the way through the book, I say grab a Christmas sweater and a hot chocolate, and get ready to have a stranger ask you why you look so happy reading the book you have in your hand!
The Business of Blood by Kerrigan Byrne is $1.99! This is book one in the Fiona Mahoney historical mystery series. It was recommended by Renee Ahdieh on the podcast and she mentions that it takes place during the time when Jake the Ripper was active.
Dangerous Ground by Rachel Grant is $1.99! This is book one in the Fiona Carver series and I’m unsure if it’s romantic suspense or more of a mystery series with romantic elements. Book two is also on sale!
All the Feels by Olivia Dade is $2.99! This came out last November and one of my dear friends (Hi Tildy!!) and bookstore manager absolutely loved this one. I haven’t read this one, but have enjoyed Dade’s other contemporary romances.
The Perks of Loving a Wallflower by Erica Ridley is $2.99! This is book two in The Wynchesters historical romance series. This one has been mentioned a couple times on the site, including a Hide Your Wallet post and Get Rec’d with Amanda.
RECOMMENDED: All Stirred Up by Brianne Moore is $1.99! Catherine gave this Austin-inspired contemporary romance a B:
All Stirred Up is not a book that sparkles – the atmosphere is more melancholy, with glimmers of sweetness and humour. It’s a story that requires patience – more patience, honestly, than I have – but if Persuasion is your favourite Jane Austen novel, I suspect you will love All Stirred Up. I don’t think I’ve ever read a retelling that captured the mood of the original so well.
Two Steps Forward by Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist is $1.99! Sarah read this one and gave it a B- grade:
While I can see and enumerate the flaws I found in my own experience with this book, I also very much enjoyed it, and feel honored to have experienced the Camino with the characters, and the journey within the story itself.
The Fire in the Glass by Jacquelyn Benson is 99c! Recently, we featured Benson’s more action/adventure title and people in the comments also mentioned how much they loved this one. It’s more of a paranormal historical or historical fantasy with a medium main character.
Shrill by Lindy West is $3.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and is being price-matched. The book does deal with Lindy’s experience with eating, rape culture, and internet trolls, so there’s some pretty heavy stuff. It has a 4.1-star rating on Goodreads.
