Be Yourself. Be Happy.

Of the grand order of folio leviathans, the Sperm Whale and the Right Whale are by far the most noteworthy. They are the only whales regularly hunted by man. To the Nantucketer, they present the two extremes of all the known varieties of the whale. As the external difference between them is mainly observable in their heads; and as a head of each is this moment hanging from the Pequod's side.

Stay Positive. Always.

Truth hurts!

March 13, 2020
-
Posted by nilufer

Drew and Poppy! Their love story was whirlwind, rocky but also undeniably hot, sexy and notorious! They had love at first in an Ibiza bar (the beers they sell must be enchanting) Their chemistry was so strong. They keep secrets from each other and they act suspicious. They kept lying because they know when truth comes out they can lose what they have together…
I can still hear Lizzo singing:”Bom bom bi dom bi dum dum bay” when I’m reading their story.
Do you want to know how their story begins?
Poppy gets fired from her nanny job she’s been doing for last 6 years because she stands up against the careless mother who neglects her kids. She gets kicked in the middle of the night, burrowing her ex-bosses’ jeep and wearing ex-boss’ high heels (her pride prevents her get back to house for her own shoes) and she finally stops at a bar, spending her last money for the beers as charming, older, rich man sits her table. Yes this is Drew. He seduces her, offering his house’s guest room for the night, rejecting to have sex with her because they’re both drunk (what a gentleman!) and the very next day, he buys her clothes, pays for hairdresser, joins her to face with her ex-boss Mrs. Henderson for getting her last payment and leaving the car keys to her house.
So their one night stand-ish meets Pretty Woman-ish relationship slowly turns into summer fling and finally Drew asks her to marry him. And he also offers her to have a clean slate, having an agreement: they’re not talking about their past, they will focus on their futures.
This is a definition of Poppy’s dream marriage because something happened to her or she did something really bad at her first nanny gig that she is still feeling guilty about it. But what if her husband dearest’s secret way too much bigger than hers?
He buys her a new house as wedding present named “Thursday House” (Because they met on Thursday, oh Drew, how sweet of you!) but why everyone in the town rejects to work there or why they are over charging them for any regular service? Who were the previous owners of the house? Why they left so fast without getting any of their belongings?
Poppy is afraid of knowing because asking for the truth means she has to come clean with her sins she’s atoned. What if hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil is the best way to have a perfect marriage! But what if her perfect marriage is just façade and there is a great danger waiting for her at the other side of the iceberg?
Well, ending is twisty and dark. This book is one of quickest reads. It was captivating, smart, entertaining. It slowed down after the middle, I started to lose my interest but thankfully the author picked up the place where she hits the brakes and starts her fast pacing, heart throbbing drive till the end.
I liked Poppy. Straightforward, smart, sassy, has been raised by over conservative, abusing mother, learning from her mistakes. And their hot chemistry with Drew was intriguing. There are still some missing elements about the final conclusion. Maybe I was waiting for more soul crushing explanations but it was still good enough for me.
I’m rounding up my 3.5 stars to 4 because it was still better than 3 starred, mediocre, Switzerland books.
Special thanks to NetGalley and Harper Collins for sharing this page turner ARC in exchange my honest review.

My @goodreads #review : My heart is literally smiling. I start to see imaginary heart emojis whirling around my head and I keep giggling like mischievous teenagers or worst kind of annoying romance heroines. This book is AMAZING!

I loved the Parent Trap with non identical twins theme! 
Storyline: Two sisters accidentally find each other via DNA service and decide to dig more to learn what their parents are hiding from them by participating a summer camp together.
There are 1 year and half age difference between them. From their appearances, it is obvious that they’re siblings. But characteristically they’re completely opposite of each other.

#Happy #book #birthday to this delightful, #intens #Happy #book #birthday to this delightful, #intense #thriller from @emmarousauthor @berkleypub 
Some snippets of my @goodreads #review: This book is one sit, captivating, twisty reading. You may see some twists beforehand and but some of them were still surprising that you won’t see them coming. Especially when I try to solve the complex relationships between characters I got a little lost. Several times I asked myself who was related with whom. 
I have to say especially first half of the book was delightful. We’re going back and forth between the past: Beth’s arrival to Raven Hall as a companion of Averell family’s daughter Nina and the present time: a young, jobless actress Sadie Langton who suffers to make ends meet, getting a job offer she cannot refuse: role playing at a murder mystery party which will take place at the very same Raven Hall. 
Beth is ready to do anything to continue living at Raven Hall because she lost her family recently. Her aunt doesn’t want to take care of her. And she starts liking Nina as her sister, also having a crush on Averell’s old friends’ son Jonah. 
And in the present time: Sadie feels lucky to this well paid job but when she starts to read her character’s role play card, she realizes things written about the character exactly reflects her own life which gives her suspicions about the way she’s been invited into this murder play.
