pickThis is my first book by this author and I wasn‘t sure what to expect, but the creepiness was off the charts. It was a slow burn at the beginning but then it took a really dark turn!

pickThis was a really good book with lots of tension, but it‘s also pretty dark. Tons of trigger warnings! And there were some really good twists towards the end.

pickThis is the first cozy I‘ve read that didn‘t involve an active murder investigation. It was enjoyable enough, though. To be fair, the title implies that seeds of murder are planted, and this is the first book in this series. Books 2 and 3 do have murder investigations so I‘ll give the next one a try. This one did have mysteries, and in the process of figuring them out, an old murder is solved. A soft pick!

pickThis full cast production was fabulous! And AC really knew how to craft a mystery. I‘m always surprised and impressed when I read her books!

pickAnother good installment in the series! This one lacked the tension and action of the previous books, however, through multiple POVs, we get to know the beloved characters better. But IMO, any time spent with Rhysand is time well spent. 🤣

pickI enjoyed this story of female gangsters in post-WWII England, but probably not enough to continue the series. Alice, the leader of the all-female The Forty Thieves, recruits Nell, an unwed mother-to-be, into her gang. After a betrayal that lands Nell in jail, she vows revenge on Alice.

Got 2 bingos in April! I kinda wish I could‘ve read a couple more books, but I can‘t really complain…still a good reading month!
#bookspinbingo
so-soThis was just okay for me. I was hoping a book about a cult would have more action!

panEach chapter is a vignette of a staff member or a guest aboard a luxury spaceship hotel. So many characters to keep up with and really, not much happens. This is more character driven and I prefer plot driven! I‘m not really sure what the author was trying to say or what the point was.

pickRose is planning a wedding for a relative from St. Olaf, and when Dorothy‘s date to the wedding turns up dead, she becomes the prime suspect. This was just a good, silly time, and I loved it! I‘m not saying that the story was groundbreaking or anything, but I think the voices of the Girls were captured nicely. Lots of 80s nostalgia and references to things that actually happened on the show!

I‘m always up for a Jane Austen retelling, and this one is an #lgbtq+ retelling of Emma. It‘s my pick for #readordonate for May!
This is my pick for #fictionaltraveler for May!
pickFamily secrets are revealed and new and old loves are found when a grandmother and granddaughter make a summer visit to the Italian island where their family is from. A decent read and the descriptions of the Italian settings will make you feel like you were there - or at least make you wish you were!
#fictionaltraveler
#bookspinbingo
My pick for May for #thematiccozies! It‘s the first in a series, and the MC (and amateur sleuth) starts her new job as head gardener of a wealthy gated community.
pickI couldn‘t take it anymore and I had to finish! I can‘t say too much because I read this with the #LittensLoveRomance group, but like the previous books in the series, this one is also an emotional roller coaster. The author has a great talent for writing tension and twists!

pickI have finally read this! Obviously I‘m not the target audience for it, and I just never thought much about making it a priority. But it was delightful! I can see why it‘s so beloved.
And I am curious about which Hogwart‘s house I‘d be sorted into 🤔

so-soThis was just okay for me. It was character driven, so there‘s not much actually happening. I prefer plot driven stories!

A few months ago when I found out there was gonna be a Golden Girls cozy mystery, you better believe I preordered it! Can‘t wait to read it!
pickThis was a wild ride…got very twisty near the end! Four female friends in an affluent Australian town make up The Running Club, and their comfortable lives are upended when one of them is found murdered on the running track.

pickThis was an odd book but it did pack a punch! It‘s for sure a huge metaphor for how much moms give to their children, as well as what they‘re expected to give. It‘s so well written and Baker does a great job writing suburban thrillers!

pickI just adore this series and this is another fun installment! Finlay and Vero are so awesome, and let me just say, Mrs. Haggerty redeems herself in this one! If Cosimano keeps writing these books, I will keep reading them.

pickSix teens head to spring break in an RV. In the middle of the night somewhere in SC, they get lost and the RV gets a flat. Then the friends realize they‘re not alone. A sniper is also there, demanding that one of them reveal a secret before sunrise. The friends have to figure out which one of them is being targeted, or they all will die. This was tense throughout and I didn‘t want to stop listening!

pickTangled is my favorite Disney movie and I really enjoyed this modern retelling! There is a lot of character growth in the MCs, and I was charmed the entire time. I‘m also a big fan of writing duo Christina Lauren, so I guess I‘m doubly biased! This is the 2nd book in the series that I‘ve read, and definitely want to read the others.

pickSo enjoyable! The author, a lifetime lover of animals, shares essays (most previously published in The New Yorker) about all kinds of animals. From tigers, killer whales, donkeys, rabbits, and of course, cats and dogs, all the essays are pretty wonderful! Would recommend to any animal lover.
March was a great reading month…ended up with 3 bingos! ☘️
I‘ve enjoyed this author‘s other books, so I‘m making it my #readordonate pick for April, just for the extra motivation to finally read it. 😂
pickI really enjoy this series! I‘ve been reading it out of order…this is book 1. 😂
