The Fortuna Coin by Karen Ann Hopkins

    ★★★★★ Review: It’s been a long time since I’ve read a book that was utterly unputdownable. This book is everything I had hoped it would be, and more. It is easily the best book I have read in over a year and is among my favorite books of all time. I frequently caught myself scanning ahead because my eyes just couldn’t wait to find out what happened next.   Wendy has just remarried, and her abusive ex-husband, Josh, kills her and her entire family in retaliation. She wakes up disoriented, finding herself in a bar, and like a bad dream, her memory fades as she comes to. She is twenty-one again, and what she doesn’t know is that she’s been given a second chance at life by the Fortuna coin her father gave her. Plagued by flashes of her memories of the future, she experiences overwhelming déjà vu. She meets her soulmate that night in the bar, but for her to save her future children’s lives, she will need to relive her past with Josh rather than follow her heart.   The first few chapters

About Me

An avid reader and aspiring author, I love getting lost in worlds intricately created word by word. I am fortunate enough to work from home on my own schedule, allowing me to devote much of my spare time to my passion for literature. I am an editor, and I currently review here on my personal blog, as well as on Instagram, Twitter, Goodreads, BookBub, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Edelweiss+. When applicable, I also review on Netgalley, BookishFirst, Book Sirens, Booksprout, Hidden Gems, AuthorsXP, Reading Deals, Voracious Readers Only, Audiobook Boom, Readers' Favorite, and Online Book Club. I will happily review on other forums if requested.

A little about me, personally...

I was raised in San Diego, CA, where I lived for the first 30 years of my life. I joined the Army Reserves at the age of 25 as a medic.  I am still enlisted, serving as a Platoon Sergeant, though I am now living in the Midwest with my husband, who is an active duty Blackhawk pilot, and my two young children. I hold a Bachelor's of Science degree in Criminal Justice: Criminal Psychology. I graduated Summa Cum Laude and concurrently completed a minor in History. My hobbies include reading (of course), bullet journaling, brush lettering and calligraphy, piano, cooking, diamond painting, traveling, camping, hiking, exercise, and cuddling my four adorable cats.
