Hi there!

How’s your summer going? Mine is looking pretty fun, with several water activities planned and lots of feasting.

Here’s my reading highlight:

Jana Goes Wild by Farah Heron
4 stars

This piece had a well-written storyline involving a mistake that was just ‘grave enough to be significant, yet minor enough to be forgiven with time’. The location – a destination wedding in Serengeti National Park was also a lot of fun to read about, with many different wildlife and interesting interactions among wedding guests.

The female lead, Jana, has never really fit in. Everyone always sees her as too aloof, too cool, or too perfect. We also see strong character development with Jana getting out of her comfort zone, out of her head, and acknowledging her emotions.
