Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Addams








If you're looking for a humorous, heartwarming, and emotionally rich romance I advise you to read Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams. The book is set in the charming small town of Rome, Kentucky, this novel follows Annie Walker, a sweet and selfless florist who is tired of being seen as “boring” and wants to find her perfect match. We begin the book after a disastrous date, Annie's confidence takes a low hit. Then enters Will Griffin, a rough and emotionally guarded bodyguard with a complicated past. He is DEFINITELY the last person you’d expect to help Annie with her dating life. But as soon as her sister-in-law Amelia suggests Will becomes Annie’s dating coach, many sparks begin to fly. As their “practice” sessions are held in Will’s secret inn, feelings begin to involve something deeper in them. As Will teaches Annie she learns to stand up for herself and accept her desires, Will is also forced to confront his fear of commitment and emotional scars left by his abnormal family. We hear the story from both Annie and Will’s perspective giving readers a dull view of their emotional journey. Which makes this book stand out as it emphasizes personal growth and vulnerability. We could see that Annie is not only looking for love, but she's learning to respect and love herself for who she is. Will also isn’t only falling in love with Annie but he’s learning to believe and trust in the big world of love. The ending then is beautiful, but yeah it's not an ending where they are rushing into marriage, but it's a reminder that love is about growth, honesty, and choosing each other everyday. Will and Annie, taking things slow, show that they are choosing each other but also honoring their individual healing progress.

            Hi people who are reading this post. I want to tell you guys about the book I read "Batman Legends Of The Dark Knight", "your weird and childish for reading a comic book."

Kill Joy

  Kill Joy- by Holly Jackson I've loved Holly Jackson's mysteries since I was in 7th grade, so when I saw that she made a prequel to her famous A Good Girl's Guide to Murder , I checked it out as soon as I could.  The story follows a school-obsessed Pip, taking place in her senior year before looking into the city's tragedy of Andie Bell. In this prequel, she attends a murder mystery party her friend Connor set up for their friend group. We are introduced to characters seen earlier in the A Good Girl's Guide to Murder series, and the contrast of the younger, more naïve teens to the later scarred victims and perpetrators. Through the murder mystery party, Pip finds out her passion for detective work, even through the silly set-up and clues set for them. I'm not going to spoil anything, but Pip threads together a more grand, outlandish solution to the mystery than what was actually prepared. She points out the many flaws in the blanket explanation of the murderer,...

The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens

                                                              The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens is a long and silly name for a not-terribly-long but somewhat silly book. As the name suggests, it’s an investment guide aimed to teach young readers everything from what a stock is to evaluating one using a Price to Earnings Ratio (P/E).  When I first started the book I was concerned that it was going to be overly dense and I would lose interest within a few pages. I was pleasantly surprised that the writers knew their intended audience well and kept it interesting with jokes and quotes from other young readers.  The book was a great introduction to the world of investing. I loved how it introduced me to many new terms, strategies, and important les...
