Review: Here for a Good Time by Pyae Moe Thet War


Blurb from Goodreads:
In Pyae Moe Thet War's electrifying and heartfelt new rom-com, a writer's attempt to find inspiration for her new novel is sabotaged by a vacation gone horribly wrong...and feelings for her off limits best friend.

A trip they'll never forget...

Poe Myat Sabei has the publishing career that any writer would kill her first novel sold at auction, became an international number one bestseller, and is being turned into a Netflix film. But now on deadline for her second book, Poe is facing a catastrophic case of writer’s block. The solution? Book a two-week getaway to an exclusive island resort for her and her best friend Zwe where she’ll undoubtedly be inspired to write her next bestseller.

But the vacation of their dreams disintegrates in a flash when the resort is taken over by a group of masked women who are very armed and very angry. As they try to leave the island before the group can track them down, Poe and Zwe suddenly find themselves facing the kinds of conflicts that only come up when, well, you’re trapped in a life or death situation on a remote island with your (hot) best friend.
 
This did not end up where I thought it was going and that was a good thing.  While I felt the ending was a bit twee and off pace from the rest of the book, this was still very fun and enjoyable.  I really liked Poe and Zwe!  Definitely a goo beach read, too!

Here for a Good Time comes out next week on August 26, 2025 and you can purchase HERE.  
"Are you up?"
A dry, ragged grumble comes out of my phone's speaker before Zwe's empty shell of a voice mumbles, "No."
"Can I come in?"
Another grumble. "It's... two
forty-seven."
Whirling my chair around, I jump to my feet and, still feeling the buzz from my two post-dinner iced coffees, practically skip out of my office. "I know. But you won't believe what I just did."
"Unless it's set the kitchen on fire, I don't-" He pauses. "That better be a masked intruder knocking at my door."
"I'm coming in! Be decent!" I say, hand already turning the doorknob. "And if you're not, get under the covers."

Review: The Lost Letters from Martha's Vineyard by Michael Callahan

The Lost Letters from Martha's Vineyard by Michael Callahan Blurb from Goodreads : A tantalizing novel of two women bound by blood but divided by a long-buried secret, and the island that holds the key to the fateful summer that changed everything forever. In 1959, Hollywood ingenue Mercy Welles seems to have the world at her feet. Far removed from her Nebraska roots, she has crafted herself into a glamorous Oscar-nominated actress engaged to an up-and-coming director… Until she shockingly vanishes without a trace, just as her career is taking off. Almost sixty years later, Kit O’Neill, a junior television producer in Manhattan, is packing up her recently deceased grandmother’s attic, only to discover a long-lost box of souvenirs that reveal that the grandmother who raised her and her sister Claire was, in fact, the mysterious Mercy Welles.
