Currently working on two books:
📘 Tempt Me by K. A. Tucker this is from my ##ReadYourKindle TBR list @CBee
📘 The Familiar by Leigh Batdugo which is for last month's #AuthorAMonth challenge @Soubhiville I am struggling to finish.

Good but a bit too long. #authoramonth @Soubhiville

When my kids were younger, we loved the Marvel and some DC superheroes. But I‘ve never wanted to read a superhero book. I tried the tagged book solely for #authoramonth. It‘s easy to believe an extraordinary author wrote this one. Diana is young and not battle-tested. She innocently and with a big heart saves the Warbringer from drowning near Diana‘s island, bringing risk to her own home and the world. So of course now she risks all to try to ⬇️

Pick - while the plot is a bit slow/steady - the women at the center of the story & their friendship is just so lovely and wholesome. I‘d read more about their lives if I could. I definitely think Quinn is an author for me (& her coauthor on this Chang as well!). #AuthorAMonth

Photo is of the kingfisher bird feathers from Google central to the headpiece prop in the story. Not partial to birds - at all lol - but they are quite pretty.

Finally reporting my books read for March. This was a long-book month, and I was only 2 days away from finishing Cashelmara, which will show up in my April books read. I tagged my favorite book this month. Challenge update:

#foodandlit #Nepal (from last month) 2 (Katmandú Killers & Eight Mountains)
#foodandlit #Ireland 3+ most of Cashelmara
#foodandlit #Italy #Jubilee 1 (Eight Mountains)
#authoramonth (Bardugo) 2+ 1/2 of Wonder Woman

Some trivia, true or not?

Okay, I think this is mostly my April TBR. I‘m still considering a couple other readalongs/challenges but haven‘t made up my mind yet.🤷🏻‍♀️

Currently I‘m reading with #SundayBuddyRead #SheSaid #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #LiteraryCrew #AuthorAMonth #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #RiseUpReads #Roll100 #FictionalTraveler #ThematicCozies #MonthlyNonFiction #JaneAustenThenAndNow #LSFBC #NaturalLitsy & 2 from my #AuldLangSpine list & a few more.

I'm so happy about this month's #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin picks! These are both books that I really want to read, but just hadn't made time for them yet. @TheAromaofBooks

I'd already decided I was going to read The Huntress for #AuthorAMonth- how cool that it's my @BookSpin pick! @Soubhiville

Can't believe we've gone from snow and freezing rain to a random day at 20 Celsius!! Heading back down to colder temperatures tonight though ☹️. Staring this one for #authoramonth . I enjoyed the first book in this series so thought I'd give book 2 a read. Looking forward to journeying into Ancient Rome! @Soubhiville
