					<description><![CDATA[Review Done Quick: Before We Were Innocent is a quick summer read. At first, I thought the book would be more of a thriller; however, it soon unraveled into a book about entitled female relationships. Bess, Joni, and Evangeline were all very one-dimensional characters, and because of their spoiled nature ie, being bored in Greece [&#8230;]]]></description>

The Book The Beverage: I&#8217;ve been drinking coffee with a caramel creamer. While tasty, I think a green tea would be better suited for Water Moon. This is because all of the pawnshop&#8217;s [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Reviews Done Quick My Lovely Wife will twist your mind and give you whiplash. I love a good domestic thriller, but Samantha Downing&#8217;s book was unhinged. The book had good pacing and snappy dialogue. Unfortunately, the characters were underdeveloped and unlikable. Therefore, despite the plot keeping me on the edge of my seat, I really [&#8230;]]]></description>
