Kills Well with Others | Deanna Raybourn

46/100 While I don't think this was as good as the first novel, it was still a fun adventure, with enough mystery and hijinks to keep me involved and interested in the final outcome. I liked all the characters, especially Billy, so I hope we do see a third novel in the future. 4.25/5 #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

I very much enjoyed all the characters & storylines of the ‘Promise Falls‘ books. I‘m sad to say this was the 4th & final instalment.

This was my first Barclay experience & for sure will not be my last!

So this one is a low pick for me. While I liked the characters, it needed a stronger plot. This book is all about the smut. Which is OK, but I need a good plot to go along with it. I may or may not read the next book in the series. It will depend on my mood. 3.5🌟 ##SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader #LitsyLoveReads @Read4life @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #ShelfSweeper @Tove_Reads

My May #BookSpin selection will be a book in a series for the #SeriesLove2025 challenge. My #DoubleSpin selection will be an Impulse read. I'll make my Book Spin board next.

Retief! | Keith Laumer

45/100 Keith Laumer has always been one of my favorite sci-fi writers, and Jami Retief is his greatest creation. Retief is a member of the CDT (Corps Diplomatique Terrestrienne) who look out for Terrestrial interests in the universe. Sadly, Retief is surrounded by incompetent diplomats, more interested in promotions and commendations, than doing the right thing for the planets they watch over. Retief is cynical, clever and totally irreverent ⬇️

RamsFan1963 it comes to listening to authority figures. This is definitely comic science fiction, but Retief makes for a solid hero, always doing what he thinks is right. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫 #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025 22h

I‘ve decided to not make any new lists for the month of May. I‘m 13 books; 6,644 pages & 29 hours behind in my GR/SG goals so far this year. I‘d love to catch-up🤞🏻🤓

These books are my current open reads & Libby loans, followed by my Kindle & physical books (chosen from Jan-March).

TheSpineView Great list! Good luck and enjoy! 1d
DieAReader @TheSpineView 💖 Thanks! I certainly hope so🤞🏻🤓📚 (edited) 1d

I actually finished a book! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Started this one about 9 days ago. This was an enjoyable murder mystery set in 1896 London with a mother who is also a private detective. A lot of information in this book, and covers the Dreyfus Affair, as well as anti-semitism.

There are a few others in this series and I‘d hope to get to them at some point. This one has sat on my bookshelf since 2014. #SeriesLove2025 #ShelfSweeper @TheSpineView

May kind of snuck up on me. I have two books I want to finish today from April. The plan for May is to work on challenges, buddy reads, book series I have started but not finished and reading books that I own.
