Dollycas’s Best Reads of 2021

Dollycas’s Best Reads of 2021

I reviewed so many wonderful books this year and many were classified as “Perfect Escapes” by me, but this list contains the books that received a “Paradise Rating”, those that I enjoyed so much I thought they deserved more than 5 star-fish.

They are in no particular order. 

Congratulations to all the authors!
