If you wander into this pastry shop, you might find a delicious treat. If you‘re dead, you may have the opportunity to send a final message to someone you loved.

I loved the way these treats were tied into these different types of grief & the closure that people need, but do rarely get. & I loved the story of Yeon-hwa coming to terms w/ the legacy her grandmother left her. & of course all these delicious pastries made me hungry!🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Two cold winter books down that have been sitting on my #TBR for a while. This thriller was okay. Not great.

I don‘t know what I want to read next.

'An Arcane Inheritance' has a melancholic feel throughout the novel. Ellory seems like she is always searching for something whether it is the deja vu memories that follow her around Warren University or her sense of self. The magic in the book is interesting without being over complicated. For those who enjoy it, there is a enemies-to-lovers trope. I enjoyed the bittersweet feel of this novel.
4 stars.
#NetGalley Challenge No. 7

A delightfully fantastical collection of short stories from Senaa Ahmed.

These were wild! I should have expected that, as I had read Let‘s Play Dead years ago, but I was so thrilled. From a resurrecting modern Anne Boleyn to the ghost of Joan of Arc possessing a young woman to a choose your own adventure set during the Manhattan Project, you will never be able to predict where these stories go or how they make you feel.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

#unpopularopinion I really enjoyed Head Cases with its unique characters and special FBI division. I like the concept of PAR. This sequel did not work for me at all. The characters felt lifeless and the plot, which should have had me on the edge of my seat while they investigated and connected two cases, was tedious. Also, going into dangerous situations without back up is a lazy plot device. It angers me every time. 🤬 #bookspin #netgalley

The end of the 18th-century in America saw the medical profession grew exponentially which required the in-house training of medical students. New medical schools were set up but anatomy instructors needed a steady supply of cadavers to meet requirements, & there were never enough via legal means. The demand saw body snatchers or 'resurrectionists' employed to illegally obtain bodies under cover of darkness from nearby cemeteries.
