Here Comes the Body | Maria DiRico

Pickpick

I really enjoyed this cozy. It's about Mia, who having just been cleared of her cheating husband's murder, is starting work at her father's new catering company, and comes across a body in the cake at a bachelor party.
The humor in this book is fantastic and a little bold for some of the pruder cozies put there 😺

In August, we read Escape From Valo. I love the middle grade books. What did y'all think?
Now, in September, we have Defy the Storm where we join up with Vernestra Rwoh & Avon Starros.
This is the last book on our schedule, so I'll be making up a new one soon. If anyone has any book suggestions, please let me know.
As always, if anyone wants to be added or removed, just let me know. And May the Force Be With You Always 🚀

Holly: A Novel | Stephen King

This was Stephen King at his best. I haven't been really creeped out by him in a while, but with some serious Silence of the Lambs vibes, this book did it.
Set during covid, Holly decides to investigate the disappearance of Bonnie Dahl by herself but ends up stumbling on others as well 🖤

I loved this book. It was truly creepy. Eight year old Bela has a secret. There is someone living in her closet that she calls "other mommy." And other mommy keeps asking "Can I go inside your heart?" Bela doesn't really understand what that means, but other mommy is getting more and more persistent ?
