Moki's Book Of The Month FEBRUARY

The Buenos Aires Broken Hearts Club 

Hey, guys Today I wanted to share with you a book I just finished reading titled The Buenos Aires Broken Hearts Club by Jessica Morrison. I absolutely fell in love with this book after finding it in the free book bin at 2nd & Charles talk about a total score! This was a sweet relatable love story that captured my attention from the very beginning. 

After some life-altering events occur in the main character Cassie Moore's life she is crumbling. Cassie is one of those girls who has planned her whole life out perfectly and has never strayed from the plan she has made for herself. However, she did not plan for any bumps and obstacles along the way and it's been working great for her pretty smooth sailing up until now. 

So one night in a drunken stupor she plans a trip to what seemed like the most amazing place at the time Buenos Aires Venezuela and sends out tons of emails to friends and family members about how she will be living in Buenos Aires for 6 months! Everything is paid for, everything is set up and paid for so she has no choice but to go and what started out as a trip to prove a point to friends and family actually becomes an amazing adventure that teaches Cassie a lot about life, love, and letting go. 

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves a good love story but also to anyone who loves a good story about self-empowerment and finding yourself. Morrison is a great writer as well her description of Buenos Aires and all of the characters in the story really paint an image in your head and help you see it in your mind. 

Cassie's Character is particularly my favorite I think most women will relate to her in the fact that her plan was just helping her live up to an image of what she thought a woman her age should be. But as Cassie's adventure, she goes on she comes to realize that sometimes planning everything down to the tee and not allowing wiggle room for unforeseen events can really limit you from living your fullest life. Cassie's character development throughout the book makes you realize how important it is is to follow your heart.

Go check out this book from your local library or wherever you get your books these days because in my list this is a must read! 

Mochi's Book of the Month

So This year one of my resolutions is to Read more, I've always loved to read but I found that as I got older I don't really have the time to read anymore or at least I didn't think I did, but now I've made it a point to fit reading into my daily schedule even if its only for a few minutes.

So I figured each month when I start a New Book I would share with you the Book I just finished and give a review of the book without giving away any spoilers.

Today I want to share with you :

The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell by Loraine Despres 

I absolutely love this book! When I first picked it up I thought I was grabbing a quaint little romance novel but I shortly realized it is much more than that. This book with its theme of Feminism, the formation of the KKK, and the prohibition, really show the tension in the south in the 1920's.

I was completely captivated by Despres' writing style and how perfectly she was able to paint her words into a picture.

I love all of the characters but I must say Belle Cantrell is my favorite this "prim and proper" southern lady has a hilarious sense of humor and really captures how mentally straining it must have been for women to not be able to do the simplest of things without possibly ruining their lives.

This tale of romance, murder, racial tension and extremely funny humor will definitely a book that stays on my bookshelf for years to come.

This is definitely a Must read in my book!
