This started kind of slow for me, but then I got into the story and the worlds that George and Orry were from. I loved this book and can't wait to read the next 2 in the trilogy!

Honestly, I loved reading Collins‘ book. I jumped in without knowing anything about it other than thinking it was a horror book. Checking Goodreads, I see that it is first historical fiction, followed by fantasy and gothic fiction. That definitely fits the book more than horror, but there were some horrific portions well placed throughout. The buildup to the story‘s climax was so suspensful that I could hardly put it down!

The second book in the Royal Spyness series. Out in my car with the windows down, reading on lunch today.

Kid had an appointment today so I took a few hours off work to read while we waited in a waiting room. Picking this book up for #BookedInTime . From what I've read so far, the pace might be a bit slow for me but it is still early goings so we'll see how the rest goes.

It's been a couple of Christmases since I've done a seasonal readalong over the 12 days. Lovely to revist.

I am really loving this series. This one was a fun change of scenery being set mostly in India (or traveling there from London) and the courtship of these characters was unconventional which added to the story. This heroine wasn‘t my favorite, but I still enjoyed the story. #historicalromance

I‘m glad this was on @rachelsbrittain ‘s #auldlangspine list, as I‘ve wanted to read something by Alyssa Cole for a while.
It‘s a pretty spicy romance with an interracial couple during the civil war. Both characters are spies for the north stationed in the south, and their attraction is complicated.
A low pick for me, but I‘m glad I read it.
(Also glad I was working alone today while listening- steamy!)
This was my January #bookspin 😁📚.
