I'm listening to this audiobook from Libby - and it's got the PRH penguin on the cover! That finishes May of #ISpyBingo #ISpy @TheAromaOfBooks
Yay!
Six prompts to go - and I've JUST found a single book that fills three of them. Stay tuned.
pickSince their mother died & their father succumbed to addiction, Luna & Solina have mostly been on their own except for each other. Luna works back-to-back shifts at the local diner in order to pay for her twin sister's tuition at the prestigious Kingswood Academy. Then, the week before she was due to return to school for her final term, Solina says she wants to drop out. (continued)
pickThis was cute! Sage‘s former friend returns to town & starts working at her family‘s apothecary, while her frenemy is on shift there‘s a break in & potions are stolen- including a misbrewed potion that has causes injury to another classmate. A quick read. The mystery was fun to try to untangle, low tension, the world is fun & I was quite entertained.
pickFollowing the death of her grandmother, Freya spent this Christmas alone for the first time in years. Freya & her brother were raised by their grandparents after their parents died in an accident & Freya in particular was very close to her grandmother - living in the same house & running a bakery company 'Past Time Treats' together. Now both grandparents are dead & her brother has his own family, (continued)

pickI‘ve decided to shamelessly review some of my son‘s seasonal books to hit some bingo prompts. I thought this 1 was just fall but it‘s actually Thanksgiving. My personal favorite but especially because there‘s a “You‘re my little marshmallow” and my son is Marshall and his grandma calls him Marshmallow. In general it‘s cute and all the elements tie in Tgiving & explain it as family & gathering etc
pickKathryn has recently split from her husband, & on a night out with a friend, meets Todd who is an IT expert including carrying out work for the local police department. Their relationship never really gets off the ground, but when Kathryn wants to call it off, the charming, helpful, affable Todd shows the other side to his personality, & due to his IT expertise he has access to her phone, her security cameras, & even her car.
