Booklover Judy Lynn

  September was a crazy month. I seem to be having a lot of those. I have been working at the job more than normal, and the hubby spent 8 days in the hospital.  I read 1 ARC and 2 books off my TBR. I also read a free novella by a new-to-me author that I chose not to mention specifically or review. I try to keep this blog positive and full of reads I can recommend. I was looking for laughs and these books delivered. Add these to your TBR today.  Until next time, happy reading! How To Troll a Guy in Ten Days (Accidentally Infamous #3) by Pippa Grant ARC: Release Date- 10/06/2026 #EnemiesToLovers #SecondChance #RomCom #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. It is written in first person from an alternating dual POV and ends with a HEA. Though it can be read as a standalone, readers may benefit most from reading the book in publication order. Mabel is the organized leader and biggest heart responsible for her Aunt P...

  I can't believe it's August already!  I was traveling nearly half of July, so I only read 5 books.  Three were ARCs and I managed to read two more books in Koko Heart's Cooper Sisters series. They were all wonderful reads. Check my reviews and add to your TBR today. It’s About Time (Blossom Peak #4) by Harlow James ARC: Release Date- 07/10/2026 #EnemiesToLovers #FriendsToLovers #FakeRelationship #SmallTown #ARC Written in first person from an alternating dual POV, this novel ends in the sweetest HEA. Though it is technically a standalone, I encourage readers to read this series in publication order. Dilynne and Elliot have a history that influences how their relationship progresses that is largely detailed in the previous book of this series. Also, understanding the relationship between Elliot and his 3 best friends makes this book all the sweeter. I should have known that Dilynne and Elliot would be hot enough to melt my kindle. I really should have known. Und...

  In June I read nine books. Four were ARCs. And two were by new-to-me author Koko Heart- who has been on my TBR for ages. I will tell you, I had an amazing month of reads. Considering I was traveling 8 days of the month I definitely think I did more than alright. I enjoyed the mix I was able to pull from my TBR with the ATCs I received. I love mixing it up. I also love bingeing a new author, which I haven't been able to do in a long time. I am thoroughly enjoying Koko's Cooper Sisters series and I won't be able to stop till I am done. (I am also including the review of my last read from May below as I apparently did not add it to my blog when the hubby was hospitalized last month.)  Check out my reviews and add these fabulous books to your TBR. Until next time, happy reading! Just Playing for Keeps (Hockey Ever After #2)   by Lauren Blakely ARC: Release Date- 06/03/2026 #BestFriendsBrother #FakeRelationship #GrumpySunshine #Sports #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this...

  Hello. April was a crazy busy month. I read four ARCs and one book from my TBR.  Three were small-town romances, two were sports romances, two had first responders, and three were single dad heroes. In other words, all just what I like. Check my reviews and add them to your TBR. You won't be sorry. Till next time, happy reading. Test of Time (Blossom Peak #3) by Harlow James ARC: Release Date- 04/10/2026 #SingleDad #GrumpyHero #FirstResponder #SmallTown #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. This is written in first person from an alternating dual POV and ends with a sweet HEA. Though it can be read as a standalone, readers will find the most benefit from reading this interconnected series in order of publication. Rhonan is the grumpy single dad to 5-year-old, Ellis- who is a delight. He is also the protective older brother of Laney from book one in this series. I loved it when Vienna shows up and knocks h...

  In the last week or so of March I felt like the old me and got some reading done. I read two ARCs, backtracked to catch up on a couple of TBR books I hadn't read yet, and read a novella by Hannah McBride that I somehow missed before. Needless to say, despite busy life stuff, this made my month. I'm sure my reading pace is going to vary as life happens, but I was very happy to feel like me again. Check the reviews. Add the books to your TBR. Thank an author today for pulling you into a fantasy world that lets you escape your reality- even for a little while. Happy reading! Ryder (Lucky Rivers Ranch #5) by Jessica Peterson ARC: Release Date- 04/07/2026 #BrothersBestFriend #Cowboy #FriendsToLovers #FamilySeries #SmallTown #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. It is written in first person from an alternating dual POV and ends with a HEA. This is the final book in the Lucky River Ranch series. Though it can be read as...

  It isn't quite the weekend, but we are leaving on Friday for a couple weeks and I will be effectively on vacation and out of the country. So here are the reviews of the books I have read in the past 10 days. I read three very different ARCs. All were fantastic. Check my reviews and add these to your TBR. The first 2 are available now and the third releases 3/20. Until next time, happy reading! The Heir (Belvedere #1) by Elodie Hart ARC: Release Date- 03/11/2026 #Billionaire #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance review copy of the book. This is the first book in a new series, can be read as a standalone, and ends with a HEA. Readers who have read the Alchemy series by this author will recognize Ivy as she gets her happy ending.  It is written in first person from an alternating dual POV. Ivy (24) works as a host at Alchemy while managing family dynamics that are heartbreaking. The author does an amazing job tackling the issues Ivy deals w...
