Here are my #BookSpin and #ReadOrDonate book picks.
@TheAromaofBooks @julieclair

For February, we visited the Jedi Council in The Living Force. Lots of Jedi, one messed up planet. What did y'all think?
In March, Mace Windu gets his own book. I'm looking forward to it. I love Mace.
As always, if anyone wants to be added or removed, just let me know. And May the Force Be With You Always 🚀

My favorite book of February was The Bright Sword 🗡
#BookBracket2025 @Catsandbooks

I read 7 books in February. My favorites were The Bright Sword, Fourth Wing, and Witchcraft For Wayward Girls.
I read both my #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin books, Hard Times and The Bright Sword. They were also my #ReadOrDonate books, both of which I'm keeping 😺
@TheAromaofBooks @julieclair

I feel like this book could be set in modern times
Thomas Gradgrind is raising his children to only care about facts. It doesn't go well. Tom is a thief, and Louisa marries the walking red flag Josiah Bouderby. The facade starts to crack after Louisa has an emotional affair and flees to her childhood home.

I loved this King Arthur retelling so much that I gave it five stars 🌟
The knight Collum goes to Camelot a few weeks after Arthur's death. The fate of the realm is in peril and Collum, Nimue, and the few knights of the round table that are left must find a new king and restore order to the land 👑
#Aardvark
#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks
#KeepOrDonate @julieclair Definitely keeping ❤️

I loved Fourth Wing. The hype is well founded. I really enjoyed Violet and Xaden, but I loved Tairn, Andarna, and Sgaeyl. Of course, the dragons are my favorites.
I loved the ending, and I can't wait to start reading Iron Flame 🐉
#WickedWords #ballroom @AsYouWish

I really enjoyed this despite the heartbreaking drama that is YA Star Wars.
Jedi Knight Reath and Padawan Azzazzo are trying to find the origins of the Nameless and how they are connected to the Blight. Also fallen Jedi Knight Azlin Rell is helping. Probably?

#Pantone2025 #windsorwind @Lauredhel

It's a really good, cozy mystery set in Dublin. The narrator was fantastic.
Megan moved to Ireland and is currently a driver in private car service when one of her clients dies at her friend's restaurant. Of course, she sets out to find out who killed her 💚

This was a unique ghost story about a haunted street named after the first residents, Talitha Velkwood and her family.
One night, the whole neighborhood just vanished. The only survivors were three of the girls who were away at college. Now, a research group and Talitha are going back 👻
#Pantone2025 #yellowjasper @Lauredhel

I loved this book. I think it's my favorite Grady Hendrix book.
So Fern is fifteen and pregnant and is sent to a home for wayward girls in Florida to have and give up her baby. There she meets Rose, Zinnia and Holly; together they start dabbling in witchcraft and then all hell breaks loose 🖤

@CBee

In January we read or are still waiting to read Tears of The Nameless. How did y'all like it?
For February we have The Living Force. It takes place shortly before The Phantom Menace and we are back with the Jedi from that era. This should be good.
As always if anyone wants to be added or removed just let me know. And May the Force Be With You Always 🚀
#StarWarsBuddyRead

My favorite book for January was The Shining 🖤
#BookBracket2025 @Catsandbooks

I only read 4 books in January. I admit I wasn't really in the mood. In the beginning of January, I was sick, on the 18th I attended a funeral of a cousin that I had never met, & on the 21st it snowed. Lukey loved the snow.
My favorite book this month was The Shining 🖤
My #BookSpin & #DoubleSpin books: The Teller of Small Fortunes & You Might Be A Zombie were both dnfed. They will also be donated for #ReadOrDonate
@TheAromaofBooks @julieclair

This was a fun book about what can happen when a Novelist wakes up next to a dead man that he had met the night before on grinder 🏨
#BOTM
#Pantone2025 #crocus @Lauredhel

I love this book. It's one of my favorite King books. It's the classic haunted hotel story. Family, who already has issues, moves inside a hotel to take care of it during It's off season and all hell brakes lose.
I would love a prequel with Grady and what happened with his family 🖤

#Pantone2025 #viridiangreen @Lauredhel

This was a fun read about the Kinight Dunk and his squire called Egg. These two were very entertaining, especially Egg, and as usual, I feel like there are more stories that Martin is withholding from everyone 😸

#WickedWords #animals @AsYouWish
#Pantone2025 #hibiscus #mistedmarigold @Lauredhel

This was the story of Edward Rulloff, the serial murder who tried to convince everyone that he was too intelligent to kill. Oh, the narcissism! The really interesting part was at the end when his actual brain was used to debunk some racist theories, like how a white person's brain is bigger than others. It isn't 😼

For Christmas, Tolkien would write letters to his kids as Father Christmas & other characters. It is really cute, & you can even see early LOTR influences.
For this year's reread, I tried the audiobook, & it was incredible ❤️

This is the novelization of Rose, the restart episode for the newer Doctor Who. It was good, but some of the additions seemed a little trite.

This was a cute story about Lucy, who gets a chance to relive her childhood dream when she enters into a competition by her favorite author, Jack Masterson, on Clock Island.

I loved this book so much. The prince of Christmas has been ordered into a fake competition with the prince of Halloween for the hand of the princess of Easter. But Christmas and Easter are best friends, and Christmas is starting to fall for Halloween 🖤❤️🖤

I really enjoyed this book. It covers the lives of three women, Alison from the 1500s who is accused of witchcraft, Clem a woman from this century whose daughter has been badly burned and Erin Clem's daughter. This book covers some of the graphic history of witchcraft in the Orkney Islands as well as the power of modern-day cults and ancient curses 🖤
