It's taken a while, started this re-read for Christmas. 804 pages of pure farce. Wonderful
👍😊

An e-reader displaying the cover of Island of the Dying Goddess by Ronit J stands against a dark fabric backdrop. An antique hourglass sits to the left, a skull to the right, and a small skeleton leans over the top of the e-reader.
#3
A bleak, emotionally heavy read about grief, mercy, and the cost of holding on too long. The madness of the gods and their power struggles cut deep, even when the horror stayed distant. Uncomfortable, sincere, and lingering.

A hardcover of Seven Deaths of an Empire by G.R. Matthews has a decorative dagger embedded in its top. Next to it is an e-reader, which displays the cover of The Silencing of the North, Book Two of The Six Kingdoms series.
Book#2
Cold clan lands, shifting loyalties, and a conflict seen from the other side. No clear heroes, no easy answers, just choices that cut deep. Dark, sharp, and emotionally tangled. I may have loved this even more than book one.

A black dog with a small green monster and an ereader showing The Class is Bonkers! By J.P. Valentine
#1
Bonkers LitRPG fun with absurd power levels, chaotic party banter, and zero interest in taking itself seriously.
Weird, lucky, overpowered, and proud of it. Perfect popcorn fantasy vibes.

Really enjoyed this one. The author worked in Rwanda for two years and many of the stories are based on or inspired by stories she was told.
Just Finished Reading: Girl Island by Kate Castle — stranded teens, found-family grit, and leadership under fire. No spoilers, but that ending lands. 🌴⚓

Excellent bit of derring do, set against the back drop of the early part of the English Civil War.

The best, most fucked up, most interesting art is happening in horror. I finished this book a week ago and can't get the ending (the grief!) out of my head.

Have #JustFinishedReading Simon Mason's 'A Voice in the Night', the latest in the detective novel series about the DI Wilkinses - such a great double act.
Each book is exciting, funny and moving.
An incredible (!) journey to bring back coffee from Yemen. Someone send me Port of Mokha beans immediately. ☕
Thanks, jury duty, for giving me a day of waiting and reading. Should've brought my backup book. 🤪

They can hunt and pounce and kill
But they're small and light and probably
Delicious
So they take some things very very seriously
I was a little girl when he said this
But when I became a woman in this world
I understood what he meant.

Gave a really long writeup of what I just finished reading over on my Insta, it was a trip. Absolutely was not ready for the massive gut punch Julia Armfield delivered me.

An interesting account of life below stairs between the wars.

Lovely book with mixed emotions, would have liked a conclusive happy ending. Who knows, the author may revisit in the future and give us one 🤞

Another captivating short novel by Hughes. Could not put this down. A good bit of suspense as well. Nicely done.

Loved the period piece elements over the long time span of the novel. This one grew on me as it progressed. Enjoyed.

Even when it’s not in the top 50% of my favorites by this author, it’s still a great read.

My first book by this author. A zany alternative account of the execution of the alleged atomic spies the Rosenbergs in the 1950s. Nixon is the first person narrator. Cast of characters includes Uncle Sam and Betty Crocker. Wild.

Bolaño’s novel manifests as three sections: first person journal style, continues with interviews with a cast of characters familiar with the leads in the novel, ending with the first person journal. Really fascinating. Unique.

Book Cover: The Bones Beneath My Skin by TJ Klune
Book 60
Just finished this weird but beautiful story, full of heart. Delightfully queer, emotionally raw, and surprisingly hopeful.
Not as cozy as some of Klune’s other books, but the ending leaves you warm and cosy.

I decided to go back to where it had all begun for me and #DaveRobicheaux and have ended up reading 4 on the bounce with many more to come #JamesLeeBurke
A pretty dark look at the life of a fortune telling scheme carney who evolves into a spiritualist minister. Good long weekend read.

Another fun read from this second installment in the series, even if it was a little gory in places
#BookSky 💙📚
A late 40s LA noir short novel in which the author Hughes puts you inside the head of a serial killer. Very good. Again, NYRB has the books I never knew I should be reading. 🤓
