Date with a Book!

A friends-to-lovers romance and modern retelling of Jane Austen's Emma, Kamila Knows Best is an engrossing read filled with dynamic characters, wonderful messages, and some laugh-out-loud moments. Farah Heron has such a knack for creating rich stories and characters with a lot of depth while still making the story feel light and fun, which is definitely the case with this one!

 Many are raving about this book. They just can't put it down and one of the best of the year. Unfortunately, I wasn't quite as smitten with it. Yes,  it has a lot going for it. Our Kamila has a great job, a real busy body. Still living at home with Dad and of course, having a little something something with someone on the side. Sigh, that just wouldn't be Emma...in my book of retelling. I know maybe I'm not that modern after all.

  3. Based on the cover alone, this looks like a book that I'd love. But then I read that it was an Emma retelling and went a little lukewarm -- I'm not the biggest Austen fan. Then again, so many rom coms owe something to Jane, so perhaps I shouldn't be so quick to judge. Maybe it's just the old-timey language that I find so off-putting. Anyway, thanks for the heads up. And adorable daisy tote in the collage!
