Resolution to read more and 2 reviews

I'm having a little reading slump and trying to clear the stack of library books that I have borrowed frantically a month ago.

I completed Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins and I  love it! It's so fun and an easy read and so romantic in the YA way. Brought back memories of first love and crushes when I was 18. Heh.

4.5 stars

Currently reading The moment between by Nicole Baart. It's an emotional read and I feel so sad and touched and conflicted. I'm halfway through and it's good for a new author I chanced upon.

From Publishers Weekly

Baart (Summer Snow) writes an emotionally intense tale of two sisters. Past and present alternate as the history of their family unfolds in order to explain their present circumstances. The present is largely set in a winery in British Columbia, where one of the sisters, Abigail Bennett, pursues Tyler Kamp, her sister Hailey's boyfriend. The vineyard offers opportunity for beautiful description and resonant imagery as the narrative unspools. Abigail is presented in painful, almost claustrophobic, detail as she deals with the central puzzle of her family and history. But some of the supporting characters, while intriguing, are slightly off-pitch. Hailey's boyfriend Tyler isn't presented fully enough, and winemaker Eli Dixon occasionally becomes more of a symbol than a character with a compelling back story. But Baart has exactly right the members and dynamics of the Bennett family, locked in the manic dance of mental illness. She tells a poignant and gripping story. (May)
