pickUnexpectedly my favorite Deb Caletti book thus far. The unrequited/being in love with someone you shouldn‘t be hit a little too close to home. I loved Zeus, the dog, Scarlet‘s journey, her family and the escapades of her neighbors. I definitely cried the last few chapters and loved the writing.
pickNot necessarily my usual fare, but when looking through the new books at work I paged through it and ended up pretty much devouring it. Pretty trippy and fitting that it started on Reddit, as it will (has) spawn(ed) countless Internet threads. Fun, but I'm not trying to make sense of it!
pickA couple buys a creepy old house with a seemingly eternal basement and lots of unanswered questions about its past. A family shows up unannounced on the doorstep and a snowstorm keeps them around. It‘s an eerie psychological thriller that drags its feet a bit too much. Not quite my thing. But if you like a dread-inducing, twisty, creepy book, you‘ll probably enjoy it.
I just started listening to this one.

My November #bookspin pick is up next. I need something a bit lighter after The Silent Companions, a few episodes of the 4th season of The Boys,and yesterday‘s events.
The black blob in the bad lighting photo is Harpy, thrilled that I‘m reading another book with a cat in it. 🐈⬛
Unfortunately my paperwhite is dying and won‘t hold a charge for very long. 😿
pickDoig‘s language is rich and poetic and usually calming. But there‘s a lot of death in this slim novel, so while it occupied my mind, it didn‘t distract me enough on this fraught night. #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
pickLoved the first half. Second half got a bit messy, and I'm not entirely sure I get what was going on, but was still creepy Halloween fun. A good read to finish off October.
I think this was Kliewer's debut? I'd definitely be interested to see what he does next.
October wasn‘t the strongest month of reading. My favorite was tagged, such a weird twisty thriller. Best to go into this one knowing nothing.

October favorite! TJ is beating everyone else though. And the LMP book is added as a bonus ♥️ #readingbracket2024 @CSeydel
