pickBinged this one after the more serious Lessons in Chemistry, and it was just what I needed! Saskia, the witch-queen, needs a dark sorcerer to help organize her newly-inherited library. Felix, archduke of Estarion, needs to flee from his abusers, and Saskia is the only person they fear. He hides his identity and takes the job, but finds himself drawn to the witch-queen - who isn‘t as horrible as the rumors imply. A fun and enticing read!
pickOk I get the hype and clearly should have read this sooner. It‘s right up my alley- fae, lots of secrets, magic relics, gods and fate. Loved it! Thank goodness book 2 is out already! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickNot as much fun at the first two, but introduced a lot of new and interesting characters as well as real politic into this fantasy world at war.
The 4th eldest sister tries to be recognized as an adult and makes some stupid decisions while trying to help her sister the queen build an alliance with two other queens who might bring blood and war to their doorstep.
3/5 read for dragons as well as centaurs but less bloody battles
Ok @CSeydel I‘m calling it! Shield of Sparrows was my favorite book of the year! 🎉 This was a year of epic Sanderson fantasy and finding tons of new authors. Wishing everyone a great 2026!
pickI picked this book because of the bingo spots I needed for #ISpyBingoDec @TheAromaofBooks. A collection of 4 novellas. Of course, Kelly Armstrong got my attention. I bailed the second novella by Jeffe Kennedy, too confused to continue, but the 3rd by Melissa Mark I loved. The first book finished for #Welcome2026Readathon

I did it again 🫣
Sorry, life got busy and I fell off posting again, but I'm back for some post holiday fun!
Here's my holiday haul of books, and I will be back again with a couple of lingering reviews from December soon.
Many warm holiday wishes everyone!
pickI hesitated to read this because of the cover tbh- and the cover is sort of misleading! I Loved this book! It is one of my favorites for this year! I feisty fmc with weather witch powers, forced marriage, a king battling the odds to save his people…. monsters- bad people… morally gray people… good people… questionable choices- bravery, deceit all tied up in a book I read in 2 days! Romantasy- with spice and a great story for most of book!
