G'day mate!
Format: Kindle
I frequently heard this was good, but it's taken me a long time to get around to checking it out for myself. Happy to say the testimonials didn't disappoint. If a book could give you the feeling of a lazy day on a pontoon boat casually casting over the side and drinking some spiked lemonade while the radio plays... This is probably as close as it gets. Humorous premise, entertaining characters, cozy moments.

I loved this book!
Format: Kindle
I have to admit that I am not a fisherman. My memories of fishing with my father mainly consist of him, getting frustrated with me as I threw rocks into the lake near his pole. However, I recognized the intense love of fishing from my dad reflected in the main character of this book.
Mr. Jobson has done an incredible job of writing a story that has many twists and turns, is engaging and entertaining, and is a surprising breath of fresh air. Absolutely loved it! Would recommend to anyone looking for a positive literary escape.

Good read…
Format: Kindle
I liked the book. But, I didn’t like the romance aspect of it. Felt somewhat forced. The last 10% or so was a slog to get through. I don’t like feeling like you can’t wait for something to be over. I would have skipped but it was the last chapters of the book and it felt a bit lazy; it wasn’t as if I didn’t want to know what happened… I can’t explain it. I’m not at all sure I’ll continue the series. Do I recommend it? Yeah, I guess I do. It’s not a bad book and I’m sure a lot of people would really like it. I liked it too, just not at the end.
