Just finished #GracielaintheAbyss by #MegMedina a surreal dive into Latin American folklore, grief & family secrets. Dark, dreamy & full of heart, it’s a magical coming-of-age that doesn’t shy away from pain or rage. Perfect if you love stories that haunt & heal.

My Monster’s Keeper is a solid PNR that’s a mix of omegaverse, monster, urban fantasy, and an almost fully LGBTQ polycule.

I feel it’s more comedic than heartfelt, but I loved that it was. 4⭐️

Small Town American Scenarios. Book Review for “Something to Look Forward To: Fictions” by Fannie Flagg. Summary: "We meet Velma from Kansas, a loving great-grandmother who struggles to bridge the generational divide with her great-grandchild in California. Why, for instance, does her great-grandchild sign letters to Velma with “(they/them)”? We cheer for Helen, in Ithaca, New York, who takes an audacious course of action when her husband leaves her for a younger woman.

‘Under the Stars’ by Beatriz Williams takes us back to Winthrop Island and the tangled lives of the residents The famous, the wealthy, and the not-so-wealthy all come together on Winthrop Island each summer in Beatriz William’s new novel, “Under the Stars.” For those who read “Husba…

I really enjoyed Under the Stars by Beatriz Williams. It's the perfect summer read and a great combination of mystery and historical fiction. #booksky #bookreview (My review was first posted on Bookreporter.com)

The book cover for The Wilderness Of Girls by Madeline Claire Franklin is an illustration of four wild looking girls looking out to each of the 4 edges of the book with 2 wolves, one at the top left and one on the bottom left. The title is in the centre in white lettering with the author's name underneath in gold lettering. The background is black.

THE WILDERNESS OF GIRLS by Madeline Claire Franklin is an exceptionally strong debut YA novel that maintains a satisfying ambiguity between its contemporary and fantasy elements in a way that’s mature without feeling like a cop out - bit.ly/410v6Nx #bookreviews #youngadultfiction #yafiction

(Book cover) Title: Knocked Down Author: Nikki Ash, USA Today bestselling author Performed by: Duncan Prescott and Marlaina Garrett

(Book review) >Tacos, Toys, and New Neighbors< I'm here for the instant sparks between Griffin King and Ava Milano when Griffin and Levi move in next door to Ava. Admittedly, I like that dates with others occur when they aren't in a relationship. It's realistic and appreciated. -- Book quote 'I stifle a laugh at how adorable this woman is mad. ... Her tank top reads, “If you hate tacos, I’m nacho type.”' -- Griffin King As much as I like the love story, I'm torn between the punny taco t-shirts and the insta-love between eight-year-old Levi and mischief making pup Maverick as my favorite part of this. There's also the "sword" fight with 🍆 toys that Ava sells as a side hustle that is priceless. The puns and "sword" fight are hilarious, but the love between a boy and (not) his dog.... Fine, Levi and Maverick win that title. 🙎‍♂️🐶 I get being affected by multiple cheating exes, but it may have been harped on too much for my liking. OK, it was too much for me. She acknowledges that they really were duds, and she should've moved on sooner. In my opinion, the issues it causes are a little overdrawn. It's the only thing that really didn't work for me. I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrators are Marlaina Garrett and Duncan Prescott. I enjoyed listened to both of them. Ava comes with a thick accent that both do a pretty good job with. Story: 4 stars Narration: 4 stars Listening Speed: 1.8x H = 28; h = 24

#BookReview: The World’s Greatest Detective and Her Just Okay Assistant by Liza Tully My Review: This one grabbed me by the title. No, seriously, when I saw that title I had to see what the actual story was all about. And what a story it is! Aubrey Merritt, at least in this 21st century setting, IS the world’s greatest detective. Whether others have held that title before her, or will afterwards, at this moment in time, she’s definitely it.

(Book review) >It Is Just Right< Zoe "Goldilocks" Simon, I think you found somethings that fit just right in your.... Yeah, go ahead and fill in that blank. I won't judge. 😉 Things with our over-the-top, crazy possessive half brothers get a bit weird before they get steamy, awkward, and sweet with more naughtiness. Nathan Moore and Carson Yeager are as irritating as they are hot. It's a good thing they know how to rev an engine. -- Book quote “Suppose Goldilocks took a liking to one of our beds?” A grin breaks out on his face. “I call dibs if she chose mine.” -- Carson Yeager I like the toy play, teasing, and generally flow of the book. The brothers are a tad too growly once or twice, but I mostly enjoyed their antics. I listened to this as part of the <i>'Eggplant Canyon Complete Series'</i>. The narrators, Andi Eloise and Duncan Prescott, are so easy and enjoyable to listen to, especially because they're in duet. 🎧💜🎧 Story: 4 stars Narration: 4 stars Listening Speed: 1.8x H1-2 = late 20s, early 30s?; h = 21
