  Crashing Waves by Kelsey Kingsley book 1 in the Crashing Waves Duology   🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Damn y'all.... I was NOT prepared for this book! I went in totally blind to this ARC read.  And when I tell you, I cried so hard!  I had to wear an eye pack to bed!  I am NOT EXAGGERATING!!!   The trauma that Max goes through is just unthinkable!  This book is all from the male POV of Maxwell.  The story starts when he is young.  Being "raised" by parents that should NOT have had children.  His mother is very neglectful (likely due to a severe mental illness) and his father just treats him like shit.  But Maxwell makes some friends and gets through school.  Then enters the military, where he excels!  But that is when he thinks things are all going well...... his life starts to fall apart. Every time things seem to start going well for him, he gets kicked down again. No I will say that this book kind of ends on a cliffhanger....

  P.S. You're the Worst by Jane Anthony 5 🌟 This is your typical ritzy boy falls for a girl from the wrong side of the tracks...... only this girl is a BAD ASS!  She may be from the wrong side of town, but she is holding her own in a world that this man couldn't even dream of surviving in!  This book is a dual POV with Darla and Dylan.  Darla has busted her ass to be where she is. Dylan has skated along doing what his dad wants him to do.  Darla makes him think for himself for once in his life and at a critical point he acts like he can't handle it!  So in comes the little sister to smack him with some reality.  The grand gesture is one of the sweetest things I can imagine ! 

  The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Attwood 4 🌟 I rather enjoyed this book.  Not my usual type of book and the writing style is definitely not my cup of tea, but I found myself needing to keep reading to see what happens.  There was a lot of flashing back to the past.... with very little distinction to tell you the change in timeline.  But the story behind all the time changes was very compelling and I needed to know what was happening.  Now the story ends on a kind of cliffhanger because the Handmaid who is telling the story is taken from the home she was staying at and you dont know what happens to her after that.  I havent watched the show but I plan to soon.

  Lake and Manning by Jessica Hawkins Book 4 in the Something in the Way series 4 🌟 So Lake and Manning are FINALLY together!  But despite all they have been through to be together, now that they are they have some different obstacles.  The one thing I did not like about this book was that it was entirely from Lake's POV.  We got nothing from Manning at all!  And while I feel like Tiffany has made some strides to be better.... she still seems to be quite petty and childish when it comes to Lake.  And I just still dont like her.  Lake and Manning get married and are living their lie, but they have troubles conceiving their family.  Which causes conflict between them.  Honestly I think that Manning needs to chill out a bit when it comes to Corbin,  but I also understand why he gets bent out of shape.   Overall this was a good book and a GREAT series.  I just wish we could have gotten more Manning POV through this time in th...
