Goodreads: After placating to his father’s demands that he play Little League baseball and major in computer programming in college rather than his beloved English literature, Thaddeus assumed that several years into his career, he would finally get some peace and quiet.

Then he met Spring Pearson, the younger, free-spirited daughter of hippy parents, at a book club meeting. Instantly smitten, Thaddeus finally worked up the courage to ask Spring out. But will an old college pinkie-swear promise Spring made fifteen years ago get in the way of this bibliophilic romance?


Kritters Thoughts:  The third in a series that I have been meaning to finish for the longest time and I was so glad I took the time to curl up with it and complete this series.  Each book in the series centers around a character or two from this book club and I have loved making the rounds around this group and finishing this one.  

Thaddeus and Spring are the center of this book.  Starting with Thaddeus' childhood and then going into Spring's we see each of these characters and how their younger years shaped them into the adults that showed up in the book club.  I loved how this story started and how the reader really got to know each of them slowly and surely and they each had such a full back story before they even met each other.  

Without spoiling the story too much, this was a great closed door romance with some sweet scenes not only between Thaddeus and Spring, but this great cast of characters.  And all of the book references made me want to write a few down and may have even lengthened my TBR!  

After finishing this one, I was excited to see there is a Christmas novella to read, so will be holding onto that one for the holiday season!


Rating: definitely a good read, but can't read two in a row
