pickLe Fanu ♥️ “Green Tea” is my favorite— books & pots of tea leading to more awareness than sanity can contain intrigues me (obv.).
& Dr. H‘s hypothesis about the metaphysical matter is pure Victorian science, akin to adding a bit about quantum physics to a story today.
Mesmerism was a very real at the time this was published. The relationship between physical & mental ambiguous. Stories on the border between paranormal & mystery are so thrilling!
pickWhat an unbelievably satisfying sequel! I absolutely loved it, the ending was definitely emotional. One of my favorite series of the year. I can‘t wait to see what else this author puts out! Overall series rating 4.5/5
Throwback to breakfast, when I ate leftover cheesecake and started MY DARLING DREADFUL THING. So far, it‘s got solid creep-out potential and a narrator I refuse to trust because her story‘s way more interesting that way, but I‘m not yet hooked. I hope that‘ll happen tonight.
Some books I‘ve had my eyes on lately 📚

“I could not give Wally or her #contemporary agency, but what I could do was portray her as resilient, clever, loving, courageous, resourceful, and #funny. For me, even though it was a story of a fictitious character from #literature & a cast of #historical figures, Anima Rising became Wally‘s book. For me, her memory has been a blessing.”

pickI enjoyed this novel set in Kentucky and written by a Kentucky author. It was refreshing to relate to the unique features of Kentucky, such as its flowers, limestone, hollars, and sinkholes. It‘s a tale that delves into the complexities of difficult emotions, particularly those stemming from loss. I had an unfortunate problem with my copy though - a major oversight by the publisher.

Thank you @Chrissyreadit for not only co-hosting but for my amazing forest staycation! I love it all and can‘t wait to res these!!!!
pickI didn‘t love it nearly as much as One Dark Window or The Knight and the Moth. I‘m actually a bit disappointed. The writing is still captivating, the characters just as interesting, but I didn‘t feel the same pull. Maybe it‘s because we go from having just Elspeth‘s POV in book one, to having 3 POVs. I understand the need for the change, but I wanted more of Ravyn and Elspeth as a couple. I‘m not sold on the other couple. Still a pick, though.
pickThis book intertwines the POVs of the five Haddesley siblings, latest in a family that has an ancient compact with a bog, in which they give the bog the body of their patriarch and it gives them a wife for the new patriarch. I absolutely loved it. Magrat isn‘t a huge fan of being used as a book rest, but it didn‘t scare her off my lap.
