pickTangled is my favorite Disney movie and I really enjoyed this modern retelling! There is a lot of character growth in the MCs, and I was charmed the entire time. I‘m also a big fan of writing duo Christina Lauren, so I guess I‘m doubly biased! This is the 2nd book in the series that I‘ve read, and definitely want to read the others.

pickIt's been a while since I read a book from this series. My husband got the 1st 10 books and was laughing so hard, so I thought I would read number 7 as it was the next one on the TBR. This series will make you laugh out loud, plus two bingo spots #ISpyBingoApril @TheAromaofBooks #SeriesLove25 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView #Read2025 @DieAReader

The Dead Will Tell is the 6th book in Linda Castillo's Kate Burkholder Series. It was tense pretty much from page one. I never lost interest in it. Castillo is continuing to develop the character of Kate. Kate has grown quite a lot since the first book.
Kate Burkholder investigates a murder that may have ties to a 35 year old murder. A person dies, and the police find notes saying, 'I know what you did.' The police try to get ⬇️

Pulled it out at the last minute & finished this one for #RiseUpReads Torn between So-So & Pick, I‘m going with a pick because while I grew up in Northern California & Oregon & was taught the history of the states, so much of it was white-washed & little was taught about women & the roles they played. This book isn‘t perfect—it slogs (I skimmed some chapters) & the focus is mostly on the white experience but there ⬇️

1. Reread, I‘m not sure how many times as I read it at least every 2 years, often every year… maybe 30? Format: started with the purple beauty, read mostly on my Kindle & finished with the Classics Reimagined version this weekend. I don‘t think my viewpoint has changed too much except for more sympathy for Mary over the years.
2. Elizabeth of course! 💜 Darcy by the end.😉
3. Elizabeth ⬇️

I finished this one last night for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 & it‘s a soft pick for nostalgia for the author. I found it too long & disjointed with it being separate stories really rather than cohesive chapters. It could be because I waited for the end of the month & was hurrying a bit but I had a hard time keeping track of all of the family & other characters. It did have some charming moments though.

Finished this weekend for #BookedInTime & #FoodAndLit #Ireland This book is set in 1847 against the backdrop of the Irish famine where a ship of many souls (over 450 with steerage, First Class & crew) sets out from Ireland to New York trying to escape the Great Famine & survive. There are lots of secrets revealed & a murder that take place on the month-long voyage. This was tough to read due to the subject matter & many characters ⬇️
