The Last of the Moon Girls is a heartfelt blend of mystery, family drama, and a touch of magic. Barbara Davis weaves a compelling story about Elzabeth Moon, who returns to her family’s lavender farm to confront a long-buried past and clear her grandmother’s name. The writing is atmospheric and emotionally resonant, with themes of forgiveness and self-discovery. Some pacing issues and minor characters felt underdeveloped, but overall, a moving and satisfying read.

This is a short, quick novel by a Pulitzer Prize winning author with witty observations of relationships. It's humorous, sad, and joyful.

After being drawn to the bright, beautiful cover and meeting Annabel Monaghan at a bookstore, Summer Romance was the first of her books I’ve read. I loved this one and now I’m ready to read all the rest! A super cute romance about a divorced single parent, this book is more than just a summer romance!

Fast paced, as is to be expected for a YA book. Would be a great intro to the genre.

Amazing story, great set of new characters . Still crazy as ever. Received an ARC copy from the publisher. Story focuses on 2 missing teen girls and the search and secrets in finding them. In usual Karin fashion she had enough twists and turns to give u whiplash. Great story can’t wait for the new series

Atwood writes beautifully with very specific attention to the littlest of details in her character. She does not let the reader forget the intricacies of the narrator, which is so essential in reminding us of her humanity in a world where she is treated as less than human. The flow of the book might seem unnatural since its not linear, but the flashbacks to Offred's time before she was taken as a handmaid are interspersed throughout the novel in a way that allows you as the reader to understand her losing her grip on reality and the person she once was. We can better understand her struggle of maintaining the woman she once was in this way. Overall the language of the book was engaging and gorgeous in its description and attention to narrative feeling.

This was an excellent ending to a series I've been reading for 8 years! I loved being reunited with these characters one last time and everyone's story ended in the way I thought it should have. I cried, it was adventurous and bizarre, and 830 pages flew by!

This is an amazing sequel to Growing Pangs which follows Katie through the tough path of growing up. Katie has started learning to manage her OCD and is going to try out for the musical Annie. Then, she realizes she has a crush on a girl. But her church is filled with people who say that being gay or bisexual is bad and a sin. They also say that girls are meant to simply help the men. Katie has to push through and learn that they can’t tell her who she can’t be and that she has to shine as her own person. This is an amazing book and I would recommend it to anyone.

Not as gripping as Cerulean Sea, but a lovely, almost cozy apocalyptic story

Amazing! 1,000 stars!
