Such a great book to start 2025!!

A bit late for a Christmas read but it‘s not very seasonal. Well written quick read with interesting characters and because of that it‘s not a pan. But the solution fell flat for me. I was unconvinced and disappointed and also not at all surprised. I didn‘t spend too long on it (maybe two sittings) and it wasn‘t a slog to read. I will try more of her books as I liked her style.

Ahhh this was so good! A sweet, short tale of a man working hard to take care of his family and trying to pay it forward when others want him to look the other way. I know they‘ve made a movie based on this and now I really want to watch it! Might be my favorite of the month so far! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A novella from the Rip in Time series, Cocktails & Chloroform finds Mallory and Gray uncovering a trafficking ring preying on young Edinburgh women. A fast paced adventure that is a 3.5 ⭐️ blast.

This was a quick read that I read in one sitting. A cute little romance to kick off the year. #4of2025

A group of insomniacs meet nightly in a graveyard. One night they start to notice some odd things. Mushrooms, clinical trials, and fresh graves aren‘t adding up to an easy answer. The cover of this one makes it look much scarier than it was. It was a bit too short to feel invested in the story or the characters and I was left wanting more.

#AuldLangSpine @Itchyfeetreader @monalyisha What a unique and hard-to-describe novel. Thank you so much for this rec! It was at times dreamlike and untethered, à la This is How You Lose the Time War (one of my favorites). And yet at other times it had a plot that was crystal clear. Sometimes piercing sorrow, sometimes laugh-out-loud humor, sometimes steamyyy sexual tension. Also fascinating and different to read a book set over many centuries…

Found “survivors“! In this short, somewhat disturbingly prophetic plague novel. One to go.

Meh. Could have done without this novella. It‘s been a long time since I‘ve read the original book and I was excited to be back in this world. However, I was outside of the world for too long and didn‘t really remember anyone or what happened. It‘s probably a it‘s me and not you thing.
