pickCute middle grade graphic novel. The interaction between these characters is cute. I think novel will be a good resource to discussed different topics with the young ones, like the expression and management of different emotions, friendship, how to resolve conflict etc. I know the palette of colors could be described as one that is in accordance to autumn season but I think is a little too dark to appreciate some detail 3/3.5⭐️
pickI really enjoyed this story it has mystery, suspense, romance, drama. Manhattan 1850. Cora Lee is a resurrectionists which means she sells for high price, bodies with strange anomalies to anatomists who will exhibit the bodies to the public. But too many people is dying, do they die for natural causes? And now, Cora also has a price since she is the impossible girl with two hearts.
It was good. It took me 6 years to read this story. 🔽
so-so🙁Didn‘t love it. The story began well, liked the mystery of what was going on, spooky in the middle but then that paranormal thing appeared (not spoiler) It was for me even ridiculous🤷🏽♀️Again, my fault for expecting too much. 3⭐️
so-soOctober was not a good reading month for me. Sorry, this is another unpopular opinion. Don‘t shoot me. I found the story not cute enough for me. Found it even boring in some parts. I guess the problem with me is that I expect too much when the book is so hyped. Let‘s say nothing is wrong with the book, just that it is not for me. Maybe if I re-read it later I can forget this
hyped-ish fever and maybe I can enjoy it more🤷🏽♀️3⭐️Love the gifts
so-soUnpopular opinion. I wanted to like this book. I was so excited to read it when I received it in my #Staycation package but definitely it didn‘t work for me😬So repetitive, how many times he said was a slasher? That he shouldn‘t go to that party? and if you forget, it happened in 1989, this was mentioned over and over. So many unnecessary details🙄 rambling story🤦🏽♀️I almost DNF. I should sympathize with the character? I was bored 2⭐️
so-soInspired by author‘s great grandmother Edie and her twin violet who author discovered were “avid spiritualists and regularly conducted séances”. I enjoyed most parts of this story and the mystery of what was happening with medium women disappearances. Not everyone liked the romance here but I enjoyed it. But it was okay not great executed story for me🤷🏽♀️Predictable in some areas. 3⭐️It has higher rating in GR.
pickI know, I‘m late posting this...story of my life🙄
I enjoyed this book...well I enjoy very much Darcy Coates novels because they are so atmospheric. Not horror more mystery and suspense and they are slow pace. 3.8 ⭐️

pickSo Cute! Harlow (a regular human) moves to a supernatural town & meets woman she likes. But that woman is trying to help her deceased ex (a ghost she accidentally summoned) with her unfinished business. A sapphic romcom + cozy mystery. The world building isn‘t that deep & theres only tidbits from the side characters, but it‘s fun, I‘d read more from the town.
