Birthday

Title: Birthday

Author: Meredith Russo
Publisher: Flatiron
ISBN: 9781250129833

Thoughts:  There was so much happening in this book that I think the device of only see one day out of the year for multiple years may have hindered it slightly.

Rating: 3/5

The Farm

Title: The Farm

Author: Joanne Ramos
Publisher: Random House Audio
ISBN: n/a

Thoughts:  Very enjoyable characters, but I am very curious about the whole plot - the Author's Note explains where the idea for characters came from, but not where the idea for the premise came from.

Rating: 3/5

If I'm Being Honest

Title: If I'm Being Honest

Author: Emily Wibberley & Austin Siegemund-Broka
Publisher: Viking
ISBN: n/a

Thoughts:  Starts off kind of slow, but once it gets going, it is amazing.  The epilogue, though, only seems to be there to tie it to the authors' first book.
