Reading Challenge 2026: Tackle the TBR Pile
This Month: April – Funny Book
Next Month: May – Indie Author
Hearts in Circulation by Sarah Monzon
Genre: RomCom
Can a rundown bookmobile be the vehicle that brings two unlikely hearts together?
Little Creek’s bookmobile is more of a death trap on wheels than a vehicle of literary delights, and circulation librarian Hayley Holt is afraid it’s going to careen down a mountainside with her in it. Yet she sees it as a way to serve her community and be worthy of the liver transplant that saved her life as a child. However, her fears come true when the bookmobile breaks down and a rockslide traps her in the small hollow of Turkey Grove.
Reclusive mechanic Levi Redding lives in tiny Turkey Grove to get away from people. He can handle getting the bookmobile running again, but the endless chatter and unsettling touches from the vibrant librarian leave him overstimulated. When forced proximity leads to a misunderstanding, a note of apology begins an epistolary friendship, proving that sometimes the happiest of endings aren’t contained within the bindings of a book.

Review
For the most part, the only straight romances I enjoy are the ones with depth to them. Not only does Hearts in Circulation have that beautiful depth, but it’s also funny and has representation for those with sensory processing disorders and organ transplants. Seriously. Sarah Monzon knows how to make you laugh while also twisting your heart, making you swoon, and helping you understand life from someone else’s perspective. I may not have SPD like the hero, Levi, does, but I resonate with being overstimulated by too many sensory inputs for too long or at too loud a volume. And reading about the fear and survivor’s guilt of being a liver transplant recipient was really thought-provoking. I won’t give spoilers away, but the way Levi loved on her and helped her confront those buried feelings gave me ALL the feels. They were both so protective and considerate of one another that it was truly a blessing to read… and so swoony. It did get a little more touchy-feely than I generally prefer, but it stayed well within the boundaries of Christian Fiction.Â
I recommend this book for those who love romcoms that make you laugh out loud while plunging you to new depths of understanding for those around you. Oh, and those who love a good swoon with a hero who struggles but is oh so sweet to and protective of the heroine.
