Reviews & Giveaway - - July 2025

 





July brought a nice mix of entertaining reads here at The Romance Dish. We reviewed twelve books that ranged from small-town contemporary to Victorian historical to paranormal to women's fiction to hockey romance to Jane Austen retellings (with a Korean twist) to second chances in New Orleans to messy family relationships in South Carolina to a story set in Ireland! There were two novellas, a debut, three new-to-me authors, and heartwarming stories from auto-buy favorites. It was a good month for books!


Did you read any of the books we covered this month? 

Did you discover any new or new-to-you authors in July?

One randomly chosen person who posts a comment before 11:00 PM, August 3 will receive a print copy of The Muse of Maiden Lane and Rules for Ruin by Mimi Matthews.

  2. I read several of the July novels and loved them. An Irish Summer, and That Last Carolina Summer were my favorite. Since I love summer these were perfect and captivating. Pam Mantovani is a new to me author.

  3. I read DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME and TWO RUINS MAKE A RIGHT and really enjoyed both of them! I had read Janna's previous version of TWO RUINS MAKE A RIGHT and thought this version was better with the extra scenes. I've got several of the other books - including BAD LUCK BRIDE on my wishlist.

  5. I didn't read any books this month, even though I tried. I did discover a couple of authors I would like to try and was reintroduced to several I enjoyed in the past but haven't read in too long. I am hoping to get more time to read next month, but that is iffy. Yesterday the lens in my left eye fell out, well actually in. It is lying on the bottom of my eyeball. I had no idea something like that could happen. The soonest I can get in for surgery is Monday. I am not sure what they will do or how long recovery will be. It is making reading a bit difficult , so who knows how much reading I will get done. Computer time is also restricted to about 15 minutes at a time. Keep presenting your selections for the months. It gives me lots of books I want to read.
