Shit. This book is going to break my heart, I can already tell…

This intro! ❤️🐶❤️🐶❤️🐶❤️

I’m going to keep going since this book has mostly 4* or 5* reviews from friends, so I’m sure it’s going to get a lot better, but I’m not into it when 6 and 10 year old characters are written to talk and have feelings that make them sound like they should be young adults/adults. I think the author’s intention was good, but the result came off as unnatural and weird to me and took me out of the story. 😬

I haven’t read a paperback book in a long time, and I just found myself touching a word on the page and holding it there for waaaaaaay too long before I realized what I was doing and that the definition of the word wasn’t going to pop up! 😂🤣

I soooooo don’t want to put this book down! I’m loving it! It has me laughing out loud a lot!

I'm seriously loving this book so far!

This was one of my favorite romance authors when I was young, and I remember loving this book so hard - hoping it stands the test of time for me! Fingers crossed! :-p

New author and genre for me, but both seem to be popular with a lot of my friends, so diving in! Loving the TPAM Reading Challenge for getting me to stretch a bit! 😜

I loved it!! ❤️

I have so many other books on my list that have been patiently waiting their turn, but after reading the blurb for this one, I just have to read it right now. :-p

“Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist - they’re all wrong and they’re all right,” he says. “It’s not the details that are important. It’s the overall message.”

“Morality, and not faith,” he continues, “is what matters to God.”

Holy crap. What a Prologue. I. Am. So. In.

Joe’s sweet moment with the old witch. 😢❤️

I've had this book for what feels like forever, and it's the only Amy Harmon book I haven't read yet, so excited to finally get to it! Not sure why I waited this long - think it just got lost in one of my many lists...

This one has been on my radar for a long time! Finally getting to it! 😜

I'm diving in, even though I have a feeling this book is going to rip my fucking heart out...

Wow. Just wanted to pass this along in case any of your haven't heard about this horrid author - she's trying to trademark the word "cocky" for all book titles because she has a series that uses the word, and now she's threatening other authors telling them to change the name of their titles. It's NOT a brand, it's a word. GET OVER YOURSELF! I will NEVER read a book of hers. Ever. http://jennytrout.com

Doing a reread - I feel like I might have read this the first time and not been in the right frame of mind because everyone I know LOVES it, so going to see what all the fuss is about (because I don't remember....) and if maybe the 2nd time is the charm. :-)

Omg, y’all. This book is fucking wrecking me right now. 😭😭😭😭😭

Oh, how I am loving this one!! 😋

I started this a couple weeks ago after getting it from the library, but I didn’t get to finish it before I had to return it, so diving back in.

I am absolutely kicking myself for waiting this long to read this book! I should have known better after how much I loved The Fish Tales series! Loving it!!!
