Loving the new T. Kingfisher! It‘s giving me McKinley vibes but with a creepy sheen - maybe it‘s the desert setting making me think of Damar? Her inner dialogue writing of the reluctant hero is similar too.

willaful That sounds promising! Gonna read it next month for #AuthorAMonth 9h

I have a heart for every year I‘ve been alive.
There are seventeen hidden in the sand of my bedroom. Every so often, I claw through the shingle, just to check they‘re still there.

Bree‘s destiny as a Scion of Arthur is under threat when the Order doesn‘t want to acknowledge her claim, & a mysterious Hunter that has been chasing her ancestors appears.

An intense roller coaster of a sequel! The world gets fleshed out a lot more, we got more of the magic, & Bree making connections outside of the Order. I do find myself impatient w/ the love triangle, & I‘m not a fan of cliffhangers. But I‘m excited for book 3!🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

It is dark and chilly outside, so I‘m curled up with a book, hot chocolate, and a lovely candle. I‘m all set. 💖

This book is brutal, but compelling. A retelling of the Blue Beard fairytale becomes the vehicle for a woman to tell her own story of violence to her son. The oft-asked question of “why didn‘t you leave?” takes on a new meaning. Another strong pick from the #TOB2026 longlist.

BarbaraBB You make it sound so good. 4d
Chelsea.Poole Such an interesting read! Glad it worked for you. 4d
squirrelbrain Not one I was keen on, but your review makes me rethink…. 🤔 4d
merelybookish I read this while deep in my fairy take retelling phase last winter. I liked it a lot and liked how it was narrated. 4d
youneverarrived From a quick look at the long list this one intrigued me the most. Will definitely read it now! 4d
