My January #doublespin was a DNF. Might revisit it in the future when I‘m in a different mindset. Now off to finally make my February #bookspin list.

My January #bookspin was Sally Hepworth‘s latest novel due to be published in April 2024. I am a huge fan of hers but this one is just a meh for me. Happy to have it off my never ending NetGalley ARC list. @TheAromaofBooks

2023 was a very difficult year for me personally so I‘m pretty happy with the amount of books read. Hoping to read at least 1-2 books a week in 2024, read more of the books I own and work on decreasing the number of NetGalley ARCs I have.

ravenlee I hope this year is kinder to you than last. (edited) 4mo

I just finished my February #bookspin title, better late then never! ☺️

Slow to start, I almost gave up less than halfway through. But since I am reluctant to DNF any book I pushed through and was pleasantly surprised by a wonderfully poignant second half. The writing is lovely and the descriptions of Cornwall itself are so vivid and add to the atmospheric nature of the book. I especially enjoyed reading about young Olivia during WWII. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

When Jasmine Blooms | Tif Marcelo

When her daughter dies, Celine, a successful life coach throws her self into her work unable to deal with her grief. Her family stages an intervention that takes an unexpected turn and catapults Celine into an alternate reality of 'what if'. I'm a sucker for a pretty cover and this one is so gorgeous that I couldn't resist. A light, easy breezy read that lacked the tug at the heartstring moments I was expecting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookspin

Lulu is a successful psychotherapist, recently married to Nick. But Nick has a troubled past and as Lulu offers to help him face his childhood trauma, she uncovers a disturbing and frightening side to the man she loves. Fast paced thriller with a somewhat predictable story line. I was disappointed that the ending did not have the 'shocking twist' promised on the cover. Nonetheless entertaining and perfect as a beachy/one sitting read. #doublespin

This story of two suburban stay at home mothers had me hooked from the first few lines! It was a relatively short and fast paced page turner with unreliable characters and numerous twists and turns that had me constantly second guessing myself. A thoroughly enjoyable read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for providing a digital copy in return for an honest, unbiased review.

Who would say no to creepy killer spiders, global Except for a variety of descriptions of how the creepy spiders are attacking and random relationship tidbits of the characters, nothing else happens. This book is part of a trilogy so the author naturally leaves something for the other books in the series, but for goodness sake you need to give the reader some story/character development. Disappointing. ⭐️⭐️ #doublespin

This slow burn thriller mystery, set in a gothic Italian villa with a mysterious true crime past was just what I needed to get me out of the reading slump that has plagued me over the last year. I enjoyed the dual timeline storytelling and the narration was excellent. This is the perfect beachy, vacation read. #bookspin
