It’s Like This and It’s Like That

by Sally Andersen

The further into Love Walked In by Marisa de los Santos, the more I want to compare it to Dear Catastrophe Waitress by Brendan Halpin. I enjoyed Waitress, and am equally enjoying Love. Both are grand stories of personal strength and new relationships.

The similarities between these two books has inspired me to compare other books that I have read and enjoyed.

Keep up with which books are soaring the bestsellers lists, which writers are on tour, and which books are being made into films. Read reviews of fiction books from both yesterday and today. Delve into the authors' lives. Most of all, find good fiction books to add to your shelf.
