4.25 stars!!! The Birthday List is an emotional, moving, and romantic stand-alone novel. I was drawn in to Poppy's story straight away and I loved it from start to finish! Poppy Maysen has been alive the last five years, but she hasn't been living. Not really. She's still grieving the loss of her husband, Jaime, who died suddenly and tragically five years ago. Things have been hard for her, but she's trying to move forward. Things are starting to change for Poppy now that she's going through Jam...
4.5 In A Heartbeat! StarsWhat a swoon fest of a read!Prologues .... how profound they can be. This one knocked my socks off, and made my stomach flip. Within the first few pages, I fell in love with the characters and storyline .... then I wanted to cry.By the third sentence of chapter two, I knew the healing process had begun, and also knew without a doubt, I was in for one terrific read!I went in totally blind, of course! Those of you who read any of my reviews know this is my preferred method...
Every now and then, a book comes into your world and touches something deep down that you never knew you needed. That, is The Birthday List. So much healing love, pouring from every word, I know I’ll never forget a single page.
4.75 🌟 THE WAY I CRIED…. in the PROLOGUE???? send help immediately. this book had me so emotional but in the best way possible!!!! the plot is one of my favorite things to ever exist & it had some lil twists I didn’t expect. we love to be blindsided over here! 😃 Cole was one of the most perfect hero’s EVER??? the patience and kindness this man holds— i’m amazed. I know he’s written by a woman but i’m still shocked. & my pretty Poppy, what a strong queen honestly. This really dove into the topic
What a beautiful story! I'm gonna be one of the first ones to say that having a deceased spouse as a major part in a book rarely works for me, however what Devney Perry did here was just beautiful. The way she wrote how Cole helping Poppy on the journey to letting Jamie go was stunning. I've never read a more perfect way to introduce a new love into someone's life who wasn't ready to let go of the last love.Poppy has been mourning Jamie for 5 years. She knows she needs to get to a better place a...
3.5 starsVery touching and poignant love story. I expected to love it more. I still clicked 4 stars, but I wish there were less issues, that bothered me.No time and desire to write a long review. I limit my complains to 2 points:- they dismissed H's ex-gf too fast. They didn't really bash her, but I felt sorry for her. Big fat minus for the hero.- sub-story with h's brother and his ex-wife. Ugh! Poor woman, they put her in bad light, made her a cheater and I guess she would be the one to grovel
5 “Minute by Minute” Stars “This man took me breath away” That quote pretty much sums up this book for me. Cole is an amazing character and he now owns a little piece of my heart. I loved every single little thing about Cole and Poppy’s story. Devney Perry has cemented her place as a force to be reckoned with. The Birthday List is thoughtful and thought-provoking. I felt all the feels and experienced the full array of emotions while reading. It’s a magnificent journey of love and loss that

*****4.5 STARS*****{ARC Generously Provided by Author}My heart had been in pieces since the night Jamie had been killed. It had taken every day of the last five years for the pain in my chest to fade to a dull ache. Still, it was there. And after every one of my interactions with Cole, that ache flared. Because when I was with Cole, I wasn’t remembering Jamie. Cole made me forget the pain.”THE BIRTHDAY LIST” is my first read by the amazing Devney Perry and it will definitely not be my last. I’ve...
3.5 StarsOverall Opinion: I was fully going into this expecting an epic angst fest, but sadly it wasn't that for me. I didn't shed a single tear. I'm not saying I disliked it, but those darn expectations hit again! I f-loved the H! I usually like my Hs obviously alpha, but I think he was absolutely perfect for the h and the situation they were in. He made the book for me! At times I wanted to shake the h because I do think it was all about her all the time, but that very well could be just beca
Oh my gawd!!! This book! This absolutely beautiful, heartfelt book! There are really no words to describe how amazing it is or how it made me feel as I moved through the story. I am not a writer but it is at times like this that I wish I had the talent to express how incredible a story is and how it touched my heart and my soul.After the death of her husband, Jamie, Poppy is struggling to find some closure even as she lives with the heavy weight of guilt upon her shoulders. Before his death, her...
“The rest is still unwritten…” OMG… I fell in love with this story and I fell hard. I loved everything about it, from the all-consuming love story, to the heart-wrenching emotions that this story evoked, to the flawless storytelling and the unbelievable characters that brought The Birthday List to life. It doesn’t happen very often when an author and her stories live up to the hype. I had heard amazing things about Devney Perry’s Jamison Valley series and after reading this phenomena
Moving with the curves…I started this review thinking 4 stars, but getting all these feelings down, it's a bloody 5 all the way.When I was younger, I swore to my hubby that he would be my one and only. For me, at the time, I felt like there was no chance that I could move on if something happened to him. Sorry hubby, but I think I’ve changed my mind. Don’t get me wrong, I would be devastated, my heart would break, and life wouldn’t be worth living…for a while. But, eventually, I think I would li...
Looks like some stupid fool forgot to review this and just noticed it. I am that stupid fool.But still, I really liked this, so I'll try my best:1. This was sweet and perfect for people who like angst but with comfort and bittersweet smiles rather than just ugly tears. Even those who like ugly tears might get a break with this one.2. The main characters had depth, though the chemistry was a little amiss for me.3. I loved the character development and the the way their relationship progressed. Th...
