🎧 The Time Traveler’s Guide to Restoration Britain by Ian Mortimer @ianmortimer.bsky.social #RogerClark @tantoraudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

I love trivia and learning interesting facts about nearly every subject.  Perhaps this is because any new tidbits are sure to give me an edge over my family when playing along with Jeopardy.  While I am guilty of watching endless documentaries and informative videos, rarely do I turn to non-fiction when looking to expand my […]

🎧 Scythe & Sparrow by Brynne Weaver @brynneweaver.bsky.social  @ms-brentmoor.bsky.social #EricNolan #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

It has been a wild ride with much murder and mayhem, but Brynne Weaver’s The Ruinous Trilogy has come to a satisfying conclusion with the third and final installment, Scythe and Sparrow.  I loved every minute I spent in the minds of the dark and twisted heroines of the first two books, but I think […]

🎧 Leather & Lark by Brynne Weaver @brynneweaver.bsky.social  @ms-brentmoor.bsky.social #EricNolan #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

I had so much fun reading Butcher and Blackbird, I could hardly wait to begin Leather and Lark, the second installment in Brynne Weaver’s The Ruinous Trilogy.  It is just as dark, just as swoony, and I loved it just as much.  The trigger warning was, again, hilarious, and should definitely be heeded, because, as […]

I’ve not yet developed the ability to self-regulate on social media.  How can I be expected to exercise self restraint when the Dodo has so many adorable animal stories or the renovation on my high school friend’s kitchen is nearly done! My solution is to normally avoid social media and all of its temptations and […]

🎧 Conviction by Denise Mina @DameDeniseMina #CathleenMcCarron @HachetteAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

When looking for a stand-alone book in between series, my go to  is the Reese’s Book Club, mostly because there is a great selection of mysteries featuring strong, capable women.  This is how I found Denise Mina’s Conviction; part adventure thriller, part true-crime podcast, and completely engrossing.  I had no idea what the story was […]

🎧 Immortality by Dana Schwartz @DanaSchwartzzz @MhairiCMorrison @TimCampbellVO @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

🎧 Immortality by Dana Schwartz @DanaSchwartzzz @MhairiCMorrison @TimCampbellVO @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

When Dana Schwartz’s novel Anatomy ended with some unresolved story arcs, it was an easy decision, well, more like a necessity, to pick up Immortality: A Love Story, the second and final installment in The Anatomy Duology.  I expected a continuation of Hazel’s journey towards being a surgeon mixed with a gothic mystery set in […]

🎧 Anatomy by Dana Schwartz @DanaSchwartzzz @MhairiCMorrison @TimCampbellVO @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

I always like to start my reviews with the reason I picked up this particular book.  Sometimes it is the cover, sometimes it is a well-loved author’s latest release, and sometimes it is because the author mentioned her book during her appearance on my favorite game show.  That is too specific a scenario to not […]

Bride by Ali Hazelwood @EverSoAli @tplummer76 @jwdamron @BerkleyPub @PRHAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

Bride by Ali Hazelwood @EverSoAli @tplummer76 @jwdamron @BerkleyPub @PRHAudio #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

Branching out from her smart new adult romances, Ali Hazelwood’s book, Bride is a paranormal romance that harks back to the vampire/werewolf craze of the 2000’s.  As a huge fan of Vampires (sorry Were lovers), I was excited to read a fresh take on the subject. Misery Lark lives between worlds.  Although she is a […]
