Alex&Eliza: A Love Story by Melissa De La Cruz(review). Spoilers

This was a great book that was a fictional imagination of the events that happened. It was the kind of book that was written in a way that you could feel like it was happening. It starts with Eliza and Alex meeting when they're younger at a party that her mother has and they dance. A time jump happens, and as Eliza is going to spend the winter with her aunt and uncle her carriage breaks down, and Alexander gives her a ride to Morristown NJ. As she is recovering Alex comes to see her. Eliza gets promised to Henry Livingston, a family friend, and brother of her best friend Kitty.  Angelica also elopes with John Chruch, and Peggy is in love with their cousin.

Alex as Washington's Adi DeCamp has been gone for a while, and when he finds out that Eliza has been away for a while, and it does not go well when he comes back and sees that Eliza is now engaged. When Alex comes back on the night of Henry's engagement party there is an altercation between him and him which Eliza gets in the middle of.  Alex goes to Albany where the Schuyler family lives, and he is not sure how gets there but he tells them what happened. Next, they go to Morristown where Eliza is, and Alex proposes to her and her parents are there. They get married, and they have a happy ending.  For years Alex has loved Eliza, and now he has his happily ever after with her

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
