#Nowickibooknook Review + 2021 Reading List

Welp, we have a problem here.. I have read many books read since my last book review post yet none shared with ya'll...let's fix that! All my book lovers let's give 3 cheers for 5 good books that will leave you with all the warm and cozy vibes.

Shades of blue and red for the win for this book round-up!

Forever Wild is a 3 book series with this title being the 3rd. I am all about restored relationships and this book has just that. I sobbed in the first book which is one of my indicators of a good book. Fun fact I am not an overly emotional person and don't cry easily but if a book makes me feel the feels then I know its a winner. Forever Wild wraps up the story of a girl, Calla, who travels to Alaska to give another shot to the non-existent relationship she has with her father. This adventure introduces her to an Alaskan pilot that makes her question the life she once lived and what really matters in the end. Loved how book 3 moved along the relationships with all the characters, but book 1 has my heart.

Pride, Prejudice and Other Flavors is just as fun and spicy as it sounds! This book plays a twist on the classic tale by giving us a present day Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. Family is everything to the Raja's, an overachieving American Indian family, who find themselves in situations that could be detrimental if their secret gets out. The plot twists kept me going as I tried to get past the annoying stubbornness of the main characters, but like every good book, the end was worth the time.

Bridgerton. Dear, sweet Bridgerton. If you've watched the Netflix show you know its fabulous. And so like any good, binge-worthy show that I don't want to end I look to the books to continue the story. So far I have read books 1 through 3 in this 8 book series, and was ecstatic to find out that each book is based on one of the siblings' love stories. Book number 2 was from Anthony's telling and my personal fav of the 3 I've read so far. And you better believe I read Lady Whisteldown's gossip column in Julia Andrew's voice. The icing on the cake if you ask me. ;)

The Flatshare is everything I was not expecting. When I read that the book is about an English woman who shares a flat that another guy owns I was skeptical. The main characters schedules are opposite, so while one is at work the other gets the flat. The way the story flip-flops from both of their point-of-views all-the-while intertwining their relationship by communicating with sticky notes has won me over. So quirky, so fun. I would love to see this become a movie.

This past year has shown me I have a deep love for a good chick-lit book. Hand me some lovable characters who find their way together in the end amidst a thick plot and I'll love you forever. But this year I am craving a variety of genres. Faith, motivational, parenting, memoir, and of course chick-lit are all apart of this years picks. Kicking off 2021 starting next month with..
