I got my first Book Box today. I was curious as to what it would be like as I used to get the Bookish Box from the US and I wanted to try a home grown Aussie version. Lots of goodies inside, including Shhh I‘m Reading socks, a Reader tote which is super thick and good quality, some confectionery, a cute notebook and a few tea varieties, including a can of peach ice tea, some stickers and bookmarks. Worth the $90? Very close I‘d say.

wanderinglynn Wow! That looks like a pretty awesome box! 6d
LeahBergen That looks fun! I want the crisps. 😆 6d

My favorite thing about John Marrs books is that your reach a conclusion but you still have plenty of book left and you KNOW there are more twists. Engaging from start to finish, I hit 10% left and thought it could be complete. But nay nay, there was one last thing to drop your jaw!

I've never read a Tim Weaver before but I most definitely will again. Full of suspense and cliffhangers, plot twists and exciting moments I found it a really thrilling read and it kept me guessing almost to the end. Brilliant.

This was a pretty good thriller, guessed the wrong person, which always makes the book good, right?

#JoyousJanuary #BookSpinBingo #SeriesLove2024 #ReadAway2024

A shocking message on an ancient papyrus. A man intent on destroying it. And a forgotten pope that could be lost to history. Cal Donovan, a theology professor at Harvard, receives an urgent message from a former graduate student, Samia Tedros. Now a museum conservator in Cairo, Samia has discovered a miraculous fragment of papyrus with three unknown lines from the Gospel of

EadieB Mary Magdalene so explosive that a wealthy man is willing to kill to ensure no one ever sees it. At the Vatican, another drama is developing. The new Pope has defied centuries of tradition and appointed a nun, Sister Elisabetta Celestino, as his secretary of state. Powerful insiders are outraged that a woman now sits as the second most influential person at the Vatican, and they plot to destroy her. 3mo
EadieB When Samia shows up at Cal‘s doorstep in the dead of night, he is drawn into a deadly competition to possess a papyrus with the power to rescue Sister Elisabetta and change the course of Christianity.
Glenn Cooper, an excellent writer and researcher has written another novel full of intrigue. The Last Pope confirms that women played and important role in the early Christian Church.
3mo
EadieB It tells that Mary Magdalene succeeded Peter as the second Pope in Rome. Pope John receives flack for appointing Sister Elizabeth Celestine as his Secretary of State. If you like books with themes of murder, love and betrayal then you would love this book. Looking forward to the next Cal Donovan novel from Glenn Cooper. 3mo

This short story is completely unhinged! I loved it!

A surgeon is shipwrecked alone on an island with nothing but a bunch of heroin and there is nothing available to eat. It‘s so gross, it‘s so gory. It‘s unthinkable. But it‘s SO Stephen King.

Why I enjoy stories like this, I‘ll never know! But I do, especially when they‘re by the King, and this was gleefully fun to read. Don‘t judge me. #readingStephenKing

Reggie King and Clive Barker are the reason I love short stories. I remember reading Nightmares and Dreamscapes and just loving it. 3mo

I discovered this book through an email I got from a publisher and I am so glad because I immediately put it on hold on Libby and when it came through I started it and I couldn‘t get enough. This book was so good and I had to find out what was going to happen to Girl and Boy. It is so worth the read!

This was really good. I read it in one sitting. Short chapters, multiple POV‘s and these twists I did not see coming. The plot includes Hollywood‘s finest movie stars, twins, secrets and two bodies. Fast paced and thrilling with mostly unlikable characters., although I did like detectives Farah and Kevin. They were a good duo.
