pick😱I forgot 2 books read on August 2025 bk1
Another author thay I bought a couple of her books when BookOutlet shipped to PR. without knowing that they are Christian fiction. I haven‘t found much religious content which is not my thing. This story is about to reveal what happened in a murder. The church was involved but the story focus in the investigation. Some conservative beliefs are discussed but I integrated as part of the story⬇️
so-soDecember 2025 Book #3

pickI'd been recommended to read this repeatedly, and it was reinforced at family Christmas so I put it on the list to be my first read of 2026. I didnt anticipate being quite so interested and reading it so fast.
Now to decide if I want to see the movie.

“Nothing brings people together better than death. It‘s like the sound of a high-pitched whistle for a dog that has strayed from its owner. When it happens, they always come.”
#Celebrate Day 3: An oceanic #Journey to witness the northern lights turned into a nightmarish near-death experience. A rare case of me enjoying the movie adaptation more than the book. Read this as part of my face to face book club who is hosting a netflix watch party instead of discussing the book next week in Dubai. Makes perfect sense, I thought. Book is paired with BJ‘s Dubai chocolate pizzookie and dubai chocolate espresso martini.
so-soThe momentum of this book was so slow. It just did not keep my interest, but I was halfway through and invested, so I decided to finish it. It does finally pick up towards the end, but by then for me, it was too late. A woman finds a mysterious book on a nightstand that she soon realizes is about her. Who wrote this book and how did it get there? The MCs life starts to unravel until the secrets of her past are revealed.
pickThe Housemaid – Tome 1 tells the story of a young woman who works as a housemaid in a seemingly perfect home. Behind the clean rooms and luxury, dark secrets, lies, and disturbing behaviors slowly emerge. As she becomes more involved in the family‘s life, the tension grows until shocking revelations change everything. This first tome truly impressed me. The suspense kept me hooked until the very end.🫶🏻❤️#bookreview#reading
I hadn't updated my bracket since June so it took me a little while to figure out the rest of my favorites and find my 2025 winner.
