I finished this library book last night and it was really good ... A real gem of a book. It's very me - a good gothic drama with a twist that I didn't see coming 👍

Another good historical romance that I read for Romance Book Club.

What I like about historical romance is that the women have very few choices but somehow find a way to work around the constraints placed on them by society.

#ranttime It was sad to see the USAID offices in DC today. It looks like they tried to rip the seals out of the windows.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Reckless | Amanda Quick

A great old school historical romance. Combine a whip smart ingenue, a jaded and grumpy possible pirate, vintage books, and a mystery to keep you guessing and you‘ve got Reckless. This was a lot of fun!

New lesson learned: when you have only about 5-10 minutes left to read in a book, then don't try to go to sleep without finishing it... My brain kept buzzing for AGES.

Volume 2 is a lot of fun, and I read it so fast. I really should order volume 4, since I'm sure I'll devour volume 3 as well...

Clare-Dragonfly You might as well buy the rest of the series since you‘re enjoying it so much! 😇 1mo
imthatniki I love this! Are you going to watch the anime? 1mo
shanaqui @Clare-Dragonfly Right?! Though... probably don't have the budget this month, ahaha. 1mo
shanaqui @imthatniki Possibly! But probably not as a priority -- I don't watch much TV or anything, so it's hard to fit it in, and I'm quite fidgety. 😅 1mo

Yep... this was the right choice for my mood. I've read two thirds of it already; saving the last part for right before bed, or maybe tomorrow. I only have one more volume already owned, so I might have to shake my book budget later to see if I can order volume four.

I still swear I'm not deliberately avoiding a #BookSpinBingo, but... I think if I can grab some time today, I'm going to start the second Apothecary Diaries light novel. I love Maomao and her scientific approach to the world so much.

This is a historical crime novel based on an actual event…and it‘s so well written and intriguing!
Life isn‘t easy for Greek grandma Zina. Especially now that she‘s been accused of a crime in London where she does not speak the language. Enter Eva into Zina‘s life. It‘s the 1950s and translating for the accused was an afterthought. That age-old mother in law vs daughter in law relationship
Another #blameitonlitsy book, @TheKidUpstairs

TheKidUpstairs Glad you liked it! It was a total #BlameitonLitsy read for me, too. I think it was @squirrelbrain 's review that got me 😁 2mo
squirrelbrain It was such a great book wasn‘t it @TheKidUpstairs ? Glad you liked it too, Chelsea. I have an ARC of her new one - due out on 8th May in the UK. I want to get to it soon, but I have so many other ARCs that I‘m trying to read in pub order. 2mo
TheKidUpstairs @squirrelbrain ooh, that one sounds good too! It releases digitally here in May, and is a cheap pre-order, might just have to do that! Have you read her debit? 2mo
TheKidUpstairs @squirrelbrain that should, of course, say debut 🤦‍♀️ 2mo
squirrelbrain I knew what you meant! 🤪 @TheKidUpstairs And no, I must have assumed Unspeakable Acts was her debut so didn‘t know there was another. I *may* have just ordered a copy from Amazon. (Well, when you‘ve got a Xmas voucher burning a hole in your pocket..🤷‍♀️). 2mo
