I read all the books we get for gifts for our neighbors children. This one was a funny store. My favorite character was the mouse. The illustrations by Axel Scheffler were amazing.

😊 Happy Reading 😊

Boris and Bella | Gris Grimly, Carolyn Crimi
post image
Pickpick

This was an amazing book! Think of Felix and Unger but as monsters. Bella is the messy one and Boris is the neat freak. Can they ever get along as neighbors? Hmmm maybe a Halloween party will bring them together?!?!? The book is so full of monster puns that it is glorious and the artwork of Gris Grimly is just perfect.

This Savage Song | Victoria Schwab

Pickpick

This is a book about monsters - but this is a photo of a baby Orca! Not a monster I promise! 😍
Cleaning up my Kindle and read this Victoria Schwab in a single afternoon. Just a fast paced dystopian with monsters - reminded me a little bit of Arcane (not so complex though) or Naomi Novik‘s Scholomance series. Definitely my wheelhouse.

merelybookish Cool photo! 6d
Ruthiella Wow, what a picture ! 😮 6d
Dilara Wow! I hope the baby orca wasn't in distress - so close to the shore 😮 6d

Centique @Dilara it was all good 👍 two babies came into the rocky bay to explore and then went back to their mother who was just a few metres away. 6d
Dilara @Centique That's reassuring! 😃 6d
Reggie That‘s beautiful! 5d
Centique @Reggie i was so excited when we saw it - just a tiny beach on a day in autumn, hardly anyone around but us and three or four surfers. Just magical - they only stayed for a couple of minutes and we watched them go round the corner and back to their mum. Probably following a sting ray or maybe a diver had broken up some shellfish on those rocks. 5d

Omg @Captivatedbybooks I LOVE my goodies!! I‘m excited about your suggestion. YA horror set in Puerto Rico with mysterious murders sounds fantastic! The Red Knot from my TBR seems great for the coming season. Isolated Alaskan island, cults, and murder! My favorite candies Sour Patch Kids and Almond Joy plus Popsicle sour candy which I‘ve never seen before! I LOVE the book sleeve, the spider and stickers are so CUTE!! #AHRS2025 #AllHallowsReadSwap

Monsters of Verity | V. E. Schwab

🥹 I finally have a special edition of this duology! When I started collecting SEs, this set was no longer available—unless you bought from resellers, which were so expensive! Luckily, I managed to get a set from Illumicrate‘s recent Books with Baggage (aka Damaged Editions). But the “damage”? Not an issue at all! 💙❤️

Beautiful artwork and such a cute story! Poor Gustavo is shy and doesn't know what to do. He decides to invite everyone to a violin concert. Will anyone show up? Will he make friends? Only one way to find out... read the book!
