A low pick. Inspired by Le Fanu's Carmilla, this graphic novel set in 1990's NYC features mysterious deaths, vampires and Chinese folklore. It was a good quick read for Hallowe'en night.

Really cute witchy rom-com but probably could‘ve been shorter! Loved all the characters though.

dabbe I read it this month, too! I found it almost too close to home in today's still-patriarchal culture. 😱 2mo

This one isn‘t in the database but it‘s on KU. The cover is indeed a treat, but the story itself is just so-so. It‘s an insta-love story, and that‘s just not a fave romance trope for me. But it‘s really short (about 50 pages) so I‘m not totally mad about it! 🤣

In this 3rd & final book of the original trilogy, Dan, Abby, & Jordan hit the road on one last trip together before they head to college. Jordan is moving to New Orleans so the trio head towards the city. Abby & Jordan really want to put recent events behind them, but Dan is not so sure they can, especially as he thinks they're being followed. Then Dan starts receiving warning message from Micah by email - but Micah is dead, isn't he?

OutsmartYourShelf A slightly different concept for this book than the previous two in that it only has the faintest link to Brookline. I was hoping that the series was going to finish strongly but this is the weakest book of the three in my opinion. Jordan & Abby are rather annoying in this book, after everything they have been through as a group, they put Dan on the outside. The ending is also pretty unsatisfying. Overall it's a disappointing conclusion. 3⭐ 2mo
TheSpineView Great job for finishing! 2mo

An old Scholastic Book Club book from 1935 that isn't in the database. Another soft pick, this was perfectly fine but somewhat boring fare. A brother and sister at the seaside on vacation meet up with a local boy with a semi-tragic backstory involving a lost inheritance. In the end, they find the long-lost will and happy endings are handed out all around. There's birdwatching, too, so I probably would have loved this when I was younger haha

This story, about the last three gnomes in England, seems like it should have been a book I loved. Three brothers traveling to try and find their lost brother and running into plenty of adventures and animal friends along the way. However, it somehow just didn't quite work for me. Maybe it was the random murder in the middle? I liked it but didn't love it. Soft pick.

Bookwormjillk Random murder will sometimes put a damper on things 😂 2mo
