Love Like This by Sophie Love
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This e-book was downloaded to My Digital Library on April 19, 2019.
i read the romance novels for entertainment, and this was entertaining.
This novel begins a series by Sophie Love called The Romance Chronicles. I have no books from this series in My Digital Library so there is no reason for me to search for more when my priority is to read the ebooks currently in My Digital Library to choose which ones to declutter by deleting them after I read them.

The Castle in the Glen by Rhys Bowen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I borrowed this book from my local library because I enjoy reading most books by Rhys Bowen.
I was surprised by the format of this book because the two stories set in different time periods are given different fonts to distinguish between a current time period and the manuscript set in the 1930s. I found this helpful. I got caught up in the mystery story in the manuscript, and I was eager to travel with Emma to Scotland and the Island of Skye.
I gave this novel 5 stars because there are no Nazis in this standalone novel.

Why I begin my reviews from when and where I downloaded ebooks

In 2023 I started this project of reading the books I downloaded for free from Barnes & Nobles' #Free Friday promotions to My Digital Library.
I started downloading free downloads in 2009. By the end of 2009, I dowloaded 45 e-books.

My current project started as a way to declutter my Want to Read Shelf by deleting after I read and review the books.

I continue to enjoy looking forward to seeing what will be promoted each week, and additional titles are downloaded. My Want to Read shelf contains e-books downloaded from Barnes and Noble, Kindle books downloaded from Amazon's First Reads pomotions, and hardcover books from our household library.
I had 400 titles on my Goodreads.com Want to Read shelf in the beginning of 2025 and 368 titles on that self at the beginning of 2026.
There are currently 341 books on My Want to Read shelf, and that total includes about 225 e-books from My Digital Library.

The Pearl Savage by Tamara Rose Blodgett
My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I downloaded this e-book November 2018, and I rarely read post-apocalyptic, science-fantasy novels any more. I read it to give it a chance to entertain me. Yes, it was entertaining, but that was not enough for me to continue reading six more in this seven-novel series.

Chosen for Power by Kathleen Brooks
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This e-book has been in My Digital Library since March 2019.
The story begins with a Cinderella trope but none of her sisters are evil. In fact there are so many sisters who are introduced here. This introduction of so many sisters may clue the reader this story may be the first in a series of books.
It was entertaining.
