pickThis whole series has Disney reimaginings. This one is Tangled! There are many similarities to the movie. While some of them seem a bit out of place for this narrative. The climatic scene is a little too tidy and there‘s only a paragraph conclusion. Overall a good book. I appreciated the slow build romance, both changed, and they do get their HEA ❤️
My favorite actress, Keira Knightley, will be starring in the Netflix adaptation of Ruth Ware‘s novel! Set to release Fall 2025. I plan on reading the book and then watching it.

I started this #Audiobook so I can get in on the hype! My older sister and I are listening/reading at the same time, so we can discuss!
pickFinished the #audiobook in the nick of time to join the discussion with #SHPL Victorian Book Club!
I thoroughly enjoyed this detective story! Had me enthralled until the end!
It was my first Collins story and I could read his other three!
pickFinished this pirate story where some people are able to use the elements as magic.
I appreciated the morally gray, reluctant hero pirate captain. His past greatly influenced his decisions and made him a worthy person.
#ReadYourKindle list for February 2024
Can‘t wait to see what numbers are selected to read for next month!
My goal again is to read one from the list.
I spotted this #BlindDateWithABook while in Frankenmuth, MI, today. The tag intrigued me with the shipwreck; I‘m all about the nautical things. Sadly I didn‘t purchase it. But, I do take chances on blind dates.
Have you ever purchased a blind date with a book?
At Frankenmuth, MI, today and some crafter made these books into treasure boxes. And then on the top shelf some cute corner book nooks!
At Frankenmuth, MI, today I came across these purses and wallets!
pickThis was super enjoyable to read! It‘s one that made me want to delay bed time lol
The writing is done well, fast paced. The characters are super believable and are both rounded out by the end, each had something to learn. There are a couple spicy scenes, but done emotionally well.
Reminded me of my time spent living in the dorms at university. A very relatable book for me.
*spoiler alert 😂 some books and movies have their endings spoiled!

I got this book from the wonderful @wanderinglynn when she had her #49bdaygiveaway! I am one of three lucky winners to get some #bookmail!!!
I can‘t wait to read it! 📕
Many might not know his name, but may have heard his voice! Simon Vance has narrated many an #audiobook from the Temeraire series to the Aubrey/Maturin series to the Dune series! His voice is grand in style, comfortable in both male and female voices and dialects. When I listen to his stories I‘m transported inside the narrative thanks to his voice.
His in-house recording studio burned along with his house in the Eaton, California fires. ⬇️

I thought there was a challenge for a recipe and then trying it out. Now I can‘t find the original post.
Here‘s a “snowglobe” drink and the recipe. Super easy - my kind of cocktail!
I‘m finally able to read my Christmas themed books! (Had another one that took forever to read, which delayed me.)
Love me a good pirate 🏴☠️ romance by Lady Katherine Bone!
Marrrry Christmas, Littens! 📚🎄🎁📖❤️💚⛪️🙏🏻

I am so glad I finally read this one (actually listened to it)!
It was moody, atmospheric, riveting, fast paced, emotional. It had me second guessing who was “good” and “evil.” Like Mary I shouldn‘t doubt myself.
The ending was super touching ❤️ As persons we long for a human connection, not just ties to the land.
This is my third du Maurier story and I‘ve loved them all!!! (Rebecca and Frenchman‘s Creek)
Met and surpassed my #GoodReads reading goal! And I‘m still adding to it 🥰 It was a good year for book club picks and readalongs!

Maggie Dawson couldn‘t wait for Thanksgiving to be over, so she could start the Christmas season in earnest. All she needed was a real tree and she knew just the corner lot to get it from. She was going to select the perfect specimen!
Gary Davies hated Christmas. Every year he was stuck at the family‘s tree lot, hauling trees for happy families. He wished at times he could be selected and go to a good home.
