Well, this is by far my worst showing to date. Mainly because I don't read horror and very little mystery or thrillers. At least I had read two. Oh well, better luck next time.

#ReadAway2024 @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

I finished The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches for #Littensloveromance yesterday. @StayCurious

I started Sinner book two I. The Priest series. #SeriesLove2024 @Andrew65 Also started The Contract for #ReadYourKindle challenge. @CBee

The above book is my choice for November. I noticed this will not be released until December, according to GoodReads.

What did you choose?

It is a cute story but not on par with other books that are similar. I enjoyed it, but it is more of a fluffy read, and I was expecting so much more. I'm still glad I read. 3.5ish ⭐️

This is a reread for me. I read it when it was originally published in 2011. It's such a great story, and the characters were authentic. Loved it just as much as the first time. It's a fabulous love story with all the feels. You can't help falling in love with TJ and Anna. 5⭐️

This is the third and final book in the Evolution of Sin series. It is my least favorite of three. I thought the plot just got over complicated. Despite it being an excellent story overall, I don't agree with the characters actions. 3.5 ⭐️

This book took me by surprise. I absolutely loved Tyler and felt for him. It was obvious from early on that he was not where he was meant to be. Then he meets his soul mate and you know there will be consequences. Though I don't condone their actions, I still sympathize with the characters. I love when an author makes me feel so much. Great story.

#HauntedShelf #HexesAndCrows @Catsandbooks

This is a novella. Just 51 pages. While I am not against a novella, this one needs a bit more development. I think the story could have been so much better if the plot was developed further and I understand the MMC's motivations. 3⭐️

Running behind, I meant to post this a couple of days ago. Also, behind on reviews. Hope to caught up in the next few days.

#WhatsNewWednesday @Read4life @TieDyeDude @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I am starting on my Christmas shopping. I have already purchased a few stocking staffers but need to get started in earnest. Today, I purchased some cool boot socks and a pair of spur straps with bling on them for the yearly dirty Santa we do at the barn
Karis wants to do another cruise so I also started that research. I can't believe how close we are to Christmas!

#WeirdWordWednesday @CBee

When I ran across this word, I thought about doing circles in a dressage arena. Silly thought, right! However, I struggle with keeping my left and right straight. So thought you guys would get a kick out these ear bonnets that have the direction stitched on them. I must not be the only one who gets confused. 🤣🤣🤣❤️🐎🏇

#HauntedShelf #HexesAndCrows @Catsandbooks
#31by31 Readathon #ScarathlonAtoZ @Texreader

This is a taboo age gap story. It is a low pick for me. I liked the plot (it did need further development) but didn't care for MMC. His character cried more than a teenage girl does. So unrealistic that bordered on being stupid. 3 ⭐️

#ReadAway2024 @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

I finished two books yesterday, Escape Velocity and Priest. I started A Little Bit Wicked. Hope to finish another book today. 💜📖💜

I loved this whole series. It is a YA paranormal romance. Recommend if you like the genre.
🖤🧛‍♂️🖤

I reached my goal of 250 books for the year. I hope to finish at least two more this month. Now to see if I can break 300 for the year. Last year I read 287. Wish me luck! 🤞💜📖💜

This is the third installment in The Bride series. Loved the story and the characters. This feels like the end of the series but there is one book about these characters which I am excited to read. 4.5⭐️

The second book in the Evolution of Sin series. It picks up right where book one leaves off. The characters are now faced with decisions that have the potential to be earth shattering. Lots of angst and though I didn't approve of how things were handled, I felt it was inevitable. 4⭐️

#HauntedShelf #HexesAndCrows @Catsandbooks
#31by31 Readathon #ScarathlonAtoZ @Texreader #LetterQ

This novella is not in the database. A short, steamy story and I wished it had been longer so I could understand the characters better. At 56 pages you can only do so much development and I felt the characters had more to say. 3.5⭐️

#ReadAway2024 @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

I finished The Consequences and read On the Island. In addition, I started Priest. It was a busy reading day for me.

Happy Tuesday! Enjoy this Halloween version of #Two4Tuesday and have a wonderful day!

My answers:
🎃 Nope. I used to enjoy dressing up at work in my youth.
🎃🎃 Blood Gift by V. M. Black was not all that scary, but it is the closest to scary I read this month.

This is an age gap, forbidden romance book. I loved the first 1/2 of this book, but then the plot went off the rails. I liked the characters and wanted them to be happy. However, the plot did need more polish. Still enjoyed. So an easy 3.5⭐️

I enjoyed book one so much that I immediately had to read the second book in the series. This is just a continuation of the first book, and they need to be read in order. Loving the story and characters. Another solid 4 ⭐️

This is a fake marriage troupe and the first book in The Bride series. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. I really felt for Ellie, the female MC and thought the plot worked. 4⭐️

I loved this one. The characters were so well written and that surprise at the end will have you gasping.

The votes are in, and the selection for November's #LSFBC #LitsySciFiBookClub is The Family Experiment by John Marrs. I read the blurb and it sounds interesting. Most of the reviews are favorable. I am looking forward to this book.

My library has both the ebook and the audio version. I looked on Amazon and the US price for the ebook is $14.99.
