Finally You - Debbie Macomber

Finally YouFinally You by Debbie Macomber
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

So this is a two novella collection. The first one was decent. I enjoyed it. However, the second one...I wouldn't even give one star to. Nothing in it made sense. There were so many poor word choices. In no reality does it take three days to drive from Seattle to anywhere in Montana...especially when you're driving from morning to at least mid-afternoon. Every single character was a self-centered brat. The two main characters didn't have anything like a true relationship - just attraction fueled passion. Their interactions and "relationship" was both destructive and toxic right to the end. Hated it.

Spring Brides: Three Novellas - Rachel Hauck, Lenora Worth, Meg Moseley


Spring Brides: A Year of Weddings Novella CollectionSpring Brides: A Year of Weddings Novella Collection by Rachel Hauck
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I really liked the March Bride. Probably because I've read all of Rachel Hauck's books and enjoyed this additional glimpse into the romance/wedding of Susanna and King Nathaniel. I found it to be well written and nicely paced. 4 stars.
I really did NOT like the April bride. First of all, I couldn't handle the characters' names. They about sent me over the edge. The timeline seemed wonky - slow in some places and completely skipped in others. And the whole thing was just beyond far-fetched. 0 stars. I didn't even like it enough for 1 star. And since I'm averaging, I don't have to give it a star if I don't want to. :)
And the May bride was okay. I liked the characters...even the over-the-top mom. I would have liked this to be a full-length story where the characters could have developed and not had everything so rushed. 2.5 stars...maybe 3.
So an average for the book of 2.2...since Goodreads doesn't allow half stars (They really should), I'll round to 2.
