4.2⭐️ it‘s listed as horror, but it doesn‘t feel like horror. Let me rephrase that, it feels more like lovecraftian horror. I also feel like the plot needs to be tightened up a little bit on this one, but I really enjoy the writing style in general, despite it being occasionally jumbled. Based on the characters in this book, the jumbled writing actually connected well though. I liked it a lot… Enough to immediately go buy a book 2.

5⭐️ & 5😭 four minute I was like, yes!, Because I really thought I got out of that unscathed. Yeah I was wrong. This is booked three of the Before The Coffee Gets Cold series, and I can honestly say that I have not had a dry eye in the three that I‘ve read so far. It‘s touching, heartfelt and just emotionally damaging, but in a best way. I absolutely love the series and I will continue to read them as long as the author continues to release them.

4.8⭐️ I expected darker, but it was still amazing. And it was what I needed when I was kind of in a dark spot myself. I could not stop laughing, the chemistry between the characters was phenomenal. I was expecting more after she left her uncle‘s house, despite the epilogue, so that was kind of disappointing. Otherwise, I highly recommend, this was a fun ride. #BookSpin for Aprils #BookSpinBingo

3.3⭐️ This book left me so confused, that I reached out to @Roary47 and asked her to pick it up and read it with me, which she absolutely did cause she‘s the best. In the end, it wasn‘t as bad as I thought it might be, but I think it could‘ve been better if it wasn‘t condensed into such a small book. The purpose behind it makes it worth a read, which is further explained in the afterword. This is my #BookSpin for #BookSpinBingo for June.

I seriously needed this today. My day has been shit, my emotions have been shit… it is just one of those days. So I took a pause from real life and threw on my 🎧 on, and now I have been sitting at my desk hoping people do not hear me laughing. I can‘t believe it‘s takin me so long to read this.

4⭐️ there‘s a lot I wanna say with a little space to say it. 1st, I read about 75% of the book before I took the dust jacket off and figured out the book was gorgeous. This book was super good, and it would‘ve been five stars, except there was always so much going on. I like a twist and turns in my stories, but this may have been a little overkill. And the ending left me wanting, so I‘m hoping a book 2 is coming. #DoubleSpin 4 April BookSpinBingo

5⭐️ this is not your typical Neil Gaiman and read. But that doesn‘t take away from this at all. This is super short, and the thought put behind writing this poem is just as beautiful as the poem was itself. If you have five minutes, pick up this book. I checked it out for free on hoopla.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin for #BooksSpinBingo this month, June 2025.

And here I thought I posted this like a week ago, but apparently I did not. Here is my read list for #BookSpinBingo for June.

4.2⭐️ I love the story. It was a beautiful story of redemption and forgiveness incorporating Polish folklore. I am new to most of these legends, but I have heard of Baba Yaga, who was a prominent part of the story. This was the May Fable fantasy read, and I do plan to read book 2.

Happy June 1st. This month in our Fable fantasy book club we are reading a book about two time traveling agents who are on opposite sides of basically a never-ending war. If you are interested in joining us, please follow the link. We would love to have you! https://fable.co/club/the-wyvern-scrolls-with-littlewolf-178259080199

4⭐️ please don‘t misunderstand me, because I really like this book. It was inspiring and eye-opening. But I have been emotional lately and I don‘t think I was in the right headspace to connect the way I could‘ve. I feel like I should‘ve hit pause and gone back to finish the read another time. So that‘s what I plan to do, despite the fact that I have finished it, I‘m gonna pick it up again later this year and reread it. #ReadBannedBooks for May.

4.3⭐️ I went into this years #Roll100 with the idea that most of these books were going to suck, which would give me the opportunity to delete them from my Kindle and clean up the mess created during the #StuffYourKindle events. However, this book was actually pretty great and now I want to continue the series. This is my first MC dark romance but it will definitely not be my last.

I‘m not a big fan of dystopian, but in the great and powerful wheel of genres chooses dystopian, we go to dystopia. This is our #HometownBookClub read for June, and I have high hopes for it as this is written by the same woman who wrote The Handmaids Tale.

Here is the #ReadBannedBooks and the #FriendsPick reads for the month of June. I have not yet read anything by Octavia Butler, but I‘m really looking forward to this read.

4⭐️ well, this was actually better than I expected it to be. I always consider myself an ally, but having a new perspective allows me to provide support in new ways. When the principal came to her and told her “my door is always open”, it made my heart smile. Beautifully written, and easy to understand. This was my #ReadBannedBook read for April. I‘m late, but I‘m glad I still got it read.

4.3⭐️ I love this… I thought it was super cute and fun and definitely had the cozy fantasy feel. This was our May book choice, along with two graphic novels, for my #HometownBookClub. I will say I got a little bit more spicier than I expected, but I read a lot spicier so it didn‘t bother me. However, we usually try to stay away from spice in our Book Club picks as not everybody enjoys them, so that was offputting. Otherwise, 100% recommend.

4.2⭐️ this was so much cuter than I expected it to be. I may actually be continuing this graphic novel series.

And with this, I give you my last post of the night. I can‘t give this book a rating outright because each story was very different. Hence, the rating next to each story within the book. It‘s super short, and for someone that does not like sci-fi, these are pretty great.

Someone ruined this and told me it wasn‘t an HEA while I was in the middle of reading it. Well, I‘m not necessarily in need of a happily ever after, the way this book was going. I was just done. This was also a #Roll100 for April.

1.6⭐️ not the same book, but it‘s part of the same collection. It‘s getting a 1.6 stars because I did not DNF it. I did not DNF it only because I was driving to work and couldn‘t change the book, and it was so short it was done by the time I got to work. It sucked. I did not like it. It makes me question if a woman actually wrote this because there‘s a difference between smut and what this was. And that was in 30 minutes of a book.

3.2⭐️ small town Book Club read for our cozy fantasy month. It was definitely cozy and fantastical, it was just a little bit too young for me. Super cute and would recommend it to a younger audience for sure.

3.8⭐️ look, this book is only getting less then 4 stars because it showed me that, I myself, do have hard limits. This book introduced me to a hard limit which literally made me gag. Other than that, I freaking love this book. This is dark, so please check your trigger warnings.

2.8⭐️ it was cute I guess, but it wasn‘t something I would ever read again… Or a series I would continue. That being said this was one of my #Roll100 for April.

4.2⭐️ this was a #FriendsPicForMe read. It is a memoir that really shows how easy it is to get sucked up into somebody else‘s plot. I‘m so happy that she was able to find herself make a life for her and her daughter away from all that control and manipulation.

4.6⭐️ I‘m so late posting things, that this is gonna be rapid fire posting here in a second to catch up. Thankfully, I‘ve been in a reading slump so there‘s not a lot to post. What I mean is I could be more. But I love the story. I don‘t feel like it was a typical vampire romance that we normally get, and Holly Black writing is just poetic.

And just to make sure I‘m not falling anymore behind, here is my June #Roll100 😊

Am I super behind with this post? Yes, yes I am! Does that mean I‘m not gonna post it? Obviously not… Lol😂 This was my May #Roll100 , and while there is so many books, I plan to get them done throughout the year.

Hey y‘all, last month I didn‘t get a chance to read much because I had a lot going on. Work was crazy, I was dealing with the loss and I was planning my trip to Puerto Rico. Just got back last Tuesday and I have to say I cannot wait to go again. It was beautiful and everybody there was so amazing. I did take a book to read, but the weather was against me and I lost it to the rain gods. However, here‘s a few pics of the trip I wanted to share.

My #FriendPick And #ReadBannedBooks for April.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin for Aprils #BookSpinBingo.

Happy April everyone. Here is my #Roll100 for April. To be completely transparent, originally I had a different book for number 16, called First Bite. As all my role 100 this year, it was from the stuff your Kindle event. I didn‘t realize until i was adding it to my all my trackers that it was nine full books in one. Knowing that I would not get that done this month, possibly this year, I let Siri choose a new book for me.

4.4⭐️ I know there‘s a lot of back-and-forth on whether this book is good. It‘s definitely different, it is not an easy read, but I loved it. The characters were good, it gets me in my emotions, the world building is on point. I thought it was great. This is my last book of the month and the second #HometownBookClub read for March.

3.5⭐️ this took me almost 3 months to read. The horror aspect of the story was so good and had me enthralled, but the dark romance section had me disturbed. I never thought I would say this, but there was just too much bedroom time, and I use that loosely, when all I wanted was to get back to the murder and mayhem and ghost. Before picking it up, this is a step sibling romance that goes too far sometimes. #DoubleSpin for January #BookSpinbingo

I am feeling very ambitious with this month‘s #BookSpinBingo as I really hope to get the majority of these read. I‘m still behind on some of my reading, but I‘m much more caught up than I was the previous month. So here‘s to a great month of reading hopefully.

4.2⭐️ this book was so much better than I thought it was gonna be, especially considering it‘s YA. The reason I gave it a 4.2 is the endings sucked so bad. I know it was a cliffhanger to lead to book 2, but there was so many holes and unanswered question at the end. Did it work, absolutely because I‘m reading the next book this next month. #HomeTownBookClub

So I think this is the children‘s book… I think it‘s meant to teach children the alphabet. I think this because it goes through the alphabet by using the child‘s name. What makes me question it, is the fact that it proceeds to tell you the ghastly way that child died. Super dark for an alphabet book.

Anybody else read children‘s books when needing a pallet cleanser. I picked up a couple children‘s books last year as a way to catch up on my reading goal, but I realize that it help with my reading slumps as well. It‘s also been a challenge as I look specifically for books with a Gothic theme and some of the ones I found have been so fun. Boris and Bella was definitely my favorite out of the three, but they were all good.

I want to say I gave this book a fair chance, because I picked it up three times since February, but I couldn‘t make it past page 15. This is definitely a NOPE for me. On a positive note, I‘m getting my Kindle cleaned up from all those stuff your Kindle events I did last year. #Roll100 #82 from February.

3.2⭐️ I liked it… It was not bad, even with some of the content being kind of cringe. It was a cute second chance at love Trope that included shifters. The fact that the dragon shifters called themselves fable shifters, because they shifted into mythical creatures, was a little weird for me. I mean, how are you mythical if you exist, and dragons in this story EXISTED. This is my #Roll100 #74 and my last #Roll100 for March.

I tried, I really did… I gave it like 86 pages or something before I was just absolutely done. It‘s not that that was bad, it was just bad for me. Anyways, this was my #Roll100 #90 for March.

3.4 Did I love it, no. Did I hate it, absolutely not. Would I read it again… Yes, I would, because some of it was just so damn funny. This quote is not even my favorite quote, but it‘s the closest one that would fit on the page. Just imagine being abducted and held against your will by this hot guy, that wants to marry you, and everybody in town is cool with this. #51 of my #Roll100 for March, and only book I have decided to keep so far.

2⭐️ well its better than some of the other books that have been clogging up my kindle, though thats the best i can really say about it. It was super short so i got threw it quickly which means I was able to delete it faster leaving my kindle a little more organized. All in all, a win! This was my #BookSpin for March and my #9 #Roll100.

5⭐️ OMG, my poor heart. This book was my February #FriendsPicForMe read. If follows one woman struggling with the onset of dementia as she tries to figure out what happened to her friend who went missing 67 years ago. The timeline bounces from 1951 to 2018. Going through the FMC experience of not only forgetting, but also when her timelines start mixing together leaving her so confused. Thank you @Roary47 for this recommendation.

Honestly, I don‘t even want to rate this book because I really struggled with it. There is just something about this graphic novel just did not sit right with me. It felt too childish, which made it hard to connect with. Well, except for the fact that er loved David Bowie because shouldn‘t we all. #ReadBanedBooks for March.

2.8 better than I expected, but still not great. This is part of my #roll100 for February. This is an alien romance where the girls get kidnapped from their home planet by bad aliens, crashed into foreign planet, and meet the not bad sexy aliens. Sounds familiar, yep for me too. Yes, there was enough differences that it could‘ve made this book thrive on its own merit; however, it was not executed well.

3.2⭐️ Don‘t hate me, but I did not love it. Yet I cant say I hated it either because I appreciated a lot about it. It was effortlessly diverse, had fun moments, and it was an easy read. However, it was so hard to like many of the characters, it felt repetitive and it was to predictable. This was a recommendation for my #ReadBanedBooks challenge for February, and while its not my favorite reads, I‘m glad I read it. March #DoubleSpin #BookSpinBingo

While technically I am still working on both spins for February and one of my spins for January, it‘s not gonna stop me from trying to complete March as well. Luckily, I have one of these done already, and both of them are part of two other challenges. Which is not hard since most of the books on the spin are challenge books… Lol. #bookspinbingo

These are my #FriendsPicK and #ReadBannnedBooks for March

Am I still trying to finish the four, yes four because I decided to not choose 6 and 60, #roll100 from February… Yes, yes I am! But I‘m still going to try to knock out these four too.
