Final #20in4 results. I had a bunch of great reads, and only one dud (Fourth Comings). My favourites were A Court of Mist and Fury, and The Moonlight Child.

The ACOTAR books are chunky, so I decided to pause after book 3, where Feyre‘s story ends. I‘m sure it won‘t be too long before I dive into the next book and read from Nesta‘s POV. For anyone that read book 1 and wanted a little more, READ ON, because book 2 & 3 are way better!

Clwojick Although the amount of times the author wrote “rude gesture” was eye-rollingly annoying. 2y

Shemac77 @Clwojick amen!! Drove me insane. Along with “mate”. Nails on a chalkboard to me. 2y

LitStephanie I wish I had stopped after book 3, TBH. 2y

I read this one in August and I enjoyed it. As with all cozies you get you get what you get and you don‘t get upset when cozies follow the formula and the mysteries are silly and mundane. These are perfect “mindless” palate cleansers.

August #wrapup

Disappointments of the month:
The Messy Lives of Book People, felt a little Hallmarkish, bland characters

DNF: Lethal Legacy, too boring

Stand outs:
Trejo
Death in her Hands
Swim Team

mcctrish Best thing about Messy Lives is the cover imo 🤣 it‘s not awful but it‘s not great 2y

so-so

As someone who was a lobbyist for a decade & is a resident of DC, I avoid fiction books about politics. I avoid romances featuring Congressional staff or mysteries set in the Capitol, for instance. So I didn't particularly enjoy this cozy. The murder mystery itself was okay - though the murder weapon “mystery“ wasn't & I suspected the culprit in her very first scene - but the backdrop of the political campaign in this one made it not for me.

melissanorr Oops, forgot the tags. #MarvellousMay #Readathon @andrew65
