The hype is so well deserved. A gorgeous, unforgettable love story with excitement, warmth, and thoughtful character evolution. Can't wait to read it again.

1) I don‘t have a specific memory, but I loved the Bookmobile as a kid. Our main library was about 15 minutes away, so we often visited the Bookmobile on Saturdays. I would still go if they had one.
2) bookstore & library, Amazon occasionally for my kindle

Book 97/100 of the year.
This was an informative look at the history and mythology surrounding Aphrodite/Venus - from her ancient Mesopotamian ancestor Ishtar, to Inanna and Astarte, and finally her Greek and Roman forms. While a little academically dry in tone, which caused me to switch to audiobook, it is a fascinating history of a goddess who is so much more than modern patriarchy gives her credit for being.
My most recent bookhaul. The tagged book is the 2nd in a duology and I already have the 1st.
I wish I didn‘t read this. Honestly, this is the first and only book that I just started skimming toward the end.
It feels like most of the chapters are just filler. Nothing important happens in the entire book. I have no connection to any character. It just felt empty. I wouldn‘t recommend it. .5/5

Another great installment. My only complaint is I‘m having a hard time keeping similar-looking characters straight. I guess I‘ll have to do a full-series reread at some point while I wait for the next one this fall!
I love this world and this story tied in beautifully to Six Crimson Cranes. I hope the author will give us more stories from this world.

Absolutely loved the book I finished this week! Unfortunately I'm making slower progress with my non audio books.

My goal this week is to try and finish Black Cake as I need to read it for work. I also want to try and get closer to finishing part 2 of the tagged but it's hard knowing there are two more instances of animal abuse I have to get through.
