Absolutely adored Nicholas Sparks The Return! I lost the better part of a couple of days completely immersed in this book! Loss is always intertwined with love and Nicholas Sparks has this beautiful way of writing about it with such heart. His ability to start a story off with an ending and end with a new beginning, bringing it all full circle is what keeps so many of us returning to his books!

Sarah Penner’s debut novel The Lost Apothecary not only was it one of the most anticipated novels of spring but it’s an an incredibly magical combination of murder mystery adventure and discovery!
There are so many fantastic layers to this novel! What really propelled me deeper into the story, was the strong female characters. There is a bond and relationship between each of them, a sharing of secrets but also of knowledge that pulls you in quickly! Each of the characters inner turmoil was so intriguing to me, and Sarah Penner does such a phenomenal job of giving an individual voice to each of them. With the help of a little blue vial and a bit of poison, she magically weaves their stories together and unearths secrets through some pretty unexpected twists and turns! Duel-timelines are my favorite to read and reading The Lost Apothecary had such a smooth transition between past and present, it was as if you could see the reel playing and overlapping as you were reading. This book was so many things! I so enjoyed reading it and encourage you to grab The Lost Apothecary for your next spring read! It’s on shelves now! Huge thanks to Sarah Penner and Park Row Books for my early signed copy I was so lucky 🍀 to win and will be highly recommending The Lost Apothecary to everyone 💜💙💜💙
