First read for Haitian Heritage Month, and it delivered! I absolutely loved The Rings of Revolution! It’s such a creative and powerful fantasy that shows the history of the Haitian Revolution. Emmanuel Jean-Pierre combines real history with magic, resistance, and Haitian culture. I could really imagine everything as I read. The characters were strong and unforgettable, and the story kept me hooked from start to finish. As a Haitian-American, it was amazing to see this part of history reimagined with pride and power. If you love historical fantasy with purpose, magic, and heart, this is a must-read!

I really wanted to like this book,it was one of my most anticipated reads, and I’d been searching for a copy for a while. When it became our book club pick, I was excited and jumped in with both the Kindle and audiobook versions. But honestly, it just wasn’t for me. I didn’t connect with any of the characters, the pacing felt slow, and I kept waiting for something to pull me in. It finally started picking up toward the end,but by then, I was already over it.

I was really looking forward to this book, but it turned out to be just okay. While The Perfect Marriage hooked me from the start, this one felt a bit underwhelming. There were a few twists that grabbed my attention, but overall, it lacked the depth I was hoping for. Disappointed, because I really wanted to love it.

Some books don’t just tell a story, they remind you how it feels to feel. How it feels to love and be loved. How to deal with grief, heal, and grow. And that even in life’s mess, we are all still worthy of love! This book will be one of my top recommendations for romance!!

This audiobook made me feel as if I was watching a crime drama movie. Very fast paced action packed. Wasn’t my favorite S.A. Cosby book, but still definitely worth listening to.

Although I loved The Yellow Wife more than The House of Eve, I really enjoyed this story. The dual POV’s was compelling. A little predictable but I was wrapped up in the story. I wish the ending connected more with maybe a bigger reveal but nonetheless a great story of 2 women overcoming some real life challenges in the 1950s.
