Stars: 4.5, rounded up to 5
Read: September 2024
Series: Aveline, #3
Format: Kindle e-Book
Challenge Prompt: CNL’s #32 of 50 — “author with a pen name” (author’s real name is Rachel Devenish Ford)
Book #86 of 2024: The Aveline series has been a joy to read! I really, really want the author to continue this series. I’ve fallen in love with this community and its people. I want to move there and sit under a jacaranda tree after the ladies get together to share and pray. I mean, CLEARLY Mercy and Lewis’ story needs to be told! And Francisco deserves his happy ending. I could go on and on.
I absolutely love Daniel and his refreshing honesty. What an amazing man. And Ani is the perfect match who sees those amazing qualities. She’s an incredible person. I adore their makeshift—and very REAL—family with the Venezuelan family.
I found this book culturally rich and I learned many things. I also love how the unique titles have meaning to each of the three books. This one took me a little longer to get into this one so I lowered my rating very slightly to a 4.5/5 compared to the 5/5 that I gave each of the first two. The final 2/3 of this novel are special.
I cannot recommend this series enough!!
