I ended up finishing the Love in Focus audiobook yesterday, it was kind of short and even shorter since I usually listen to them on a 1,5 or 2x speed :lol:



Oh :shock: :lol: Did you enjoy it at least?

I did! :mrgreen:
I can leave a review here. Since I read that one through Netgalley, I have to write a review (in exchange for the digital arc). :D

Love in Focus by Lyla Lee

Such a cute story! I loved the queer asian (Korean, specifically) representation in this book.

There were a few parts where I felt like things were going too fast in relation to the storyline, but I still enjoyed this novel very much. The characters' relationships among themselves felt pretty deep and real to me. Real people, real situations, and real problems.

Celeste and Gemma felt right for each other since the beginning, I was already rooting for them from the start.

The audiobook was very well narrated, switching voices whenever the POVs changed. It was actually pretty addictive, since I listened to over half of it in one sitting!

Reading update :wave:

It's been a pretty lazy weekend, I really needed to unwind. And since my ereader arrived last Friday, I've been reading a lot 8-) I'm a slow reader, but since I've been reading + listening to the audiobook, it goes by a lot faster! :lol:

I finished Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry yesterday and gave it 5 stars. It's a romance novel with some mystery. There's a plot twist at the end which I wasn't expecting :o

And right now I'm reading a cozy mystery called Murder Over Easy. This author has written a lot of cozy mystery novels, so I decided to explore them. 8-)
