Duke&I

The Duke & I by Julia Quinn

If you enjoy historical fiction, the plot itself is very charming and sprinkled with humor. The voice of the narrator is enough to transport you to 19th century England.
OliverKitteridge

Coworker

The Coworker by Freida McFadden

A twisty psychological thriller! I wasn’t sure who to believe or trust while I was reading this book. An office is filled with secrets and Dawn is a coworker that is obsessed with turtles and is an awkward outsider. This book is a reminder to always be kind even to weird people! 🙂
