Good evening book readers,
I hope you enjoyed your weekend with what you enjoy most. If I remember correctly I tried to bake during the weekend and read more books.
I am also preparing April's Newsletter and April's theme.
Without further spoiling the above, let's jump into Annie Crown and her novel Night Shift.

Kendall Holiday spends her Friday nights exactly where she wants to be: with her head buried in a spicy romance novel while she works the graveyard shift at her university's library. She knows she could join her friends for a weekend of drunken debauchery and college parties, but she likes her alone time, so she tells herself she isn't hiding when she gets lost in the pages of fictional love stories.
But that all changes when Vincent Knight, captain of the basketball team, turns up with an injured wrist, a sour mood, and a pressing need for poetry recommendations for a class he hates. Vincent is tall, smart-mouthed, and challenges Kendall like no one has before. Suddenly, she's falling headfirst into her very own romance novel—but it takes a lot more truth than tropes to get to a happy ever after in real life.
I am so sorry to admit this but I DNF'ed it. For the first 200 pages it was quite alright and I thought this could be maybe the best book I've read so far. How wrong I was. Everything happened really well and we could have had a beautiful ending had the author stopped there. No the storyline continued and it did not captivated me anymore. I was actually reading it against my will and therefore I knew this was not going to make the cut. So I DNF'ed it.
For those of you who want to give it a try it is actually a really nice story up until I read it, so for the rest you'll have to figure it out.
Love, Manon
