I am ecstatic for Maud Ventura's new novel translated to English. May is going to be a great reading month with her, Fredrik Backman and Ocean Vuong having new ones (I am sure there will be lots of tears with both!) and I am interested in debut Awake in the Floating City.
June is all about SA Cosby
July I like the idea of The Phoenix Pencil Company- 'Reforging pencils, bringing the memories they contain back to life'
And August is RF Kuang!!
This one is not in the Litsy catalogue yet, but it has shifted all of my most anticipated for 2025!
My Husband was my absolute favorite read of 2023 and I am so so excited I got my hands on a digital ARC of this one.
Has me thinking more and more about my most anticipated for 2025. I am going to do a round up!
I am looking for all the French novels you loved! Last year my favorite book was My Husband. Next year I want to read a bunch of French books. I have and will read all of the Valerie Perrin books that are available in English, I am working my way through Edouard Louis, and Philippe Besson. I need more modern day ladies!
All suggestions appreciated.

Much like Sarah Dessen's Dreamland, I'm glad I didn't read this when it first came out, as it wouldn't have been as impactful. A little hard to read at times due to the emotions and trauma, but I appreciate the raw honesty and the ending, as well as the characters.
A few summer reads, thoughts below :)
⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Ocean at the End of the Lane - well written, not quite my ☕️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Touch of Jen - I felt physically uncomfortable the entire time, which I considered to be a success?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Before the coffee gets cold - sweet, heart wrenching book about life, death, and all in between
⭐️⭐️⭐️ Midnight Library - interesting concept, didn‘t “love”

I loved this graphic novel, so this serves as a self reminder to read the rest of the volumes! #Dark #WickedWhispers @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
1. I get dressed in the morning and undressed at night. @Deblovestoread reminded me that I exercise 3/week and wear exercise clothes! Totally forgot this.
2. The wife in the tagged book worries constantly about what she‘s wearing, how her husband will feel about about what she‘s wearing, and how others see her in what she‘s wearing! Yes, she‘s as neurotic as she sounds.

This one was just okay for me. It was pretty predictable and there was t anything that was overly new and exciting to me. It felt like stories I‘ve read before in some way or another and the characters were very unsympathetic. It had a Desperate Housewives feel, but just didn‘t work for me.
