🎧The Unicorn Hunters by Katherine Arden @arden_katherine @fionahardingham.bsky.social @penguinaudio.bsky.social @DelReyBooks  @PRH_Audio @PRHAudio #LoveAudiobooks #SpeccyFicChal

I enjoy this author and narrator so it was easy to choose The Unicorn Hunters.  I have read some other stories about Anne of Brittany and the typical horrible choices she had, as most women of this era.  Even daughters of kings end up as property and breeding to produce heirs. So the start was […]

Sunday Series:  DI Kim Stone by Angela Marsons #AngelaMarsons #JanCramer @bookouture.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks #SundaySeries @writeangie

  I needed to figure out a way to start reading series where I am not current or the series is finished but haven’t read them yet.  So it’s a way to commit myself to read my backlist, particularly series.   I’ve been wanting to read the DI Kim Stone for a long time.  The […]

Ode to the Half-Broken by Suzanne Palmer @zanzjan.bsky.social @dawbooks.bsky.social @berkleypub.bsky.social #TraciOdom #PodiumAudio @zanzjan @DAWBooks @BerkleyPub

I loved Suzanne Palmer‘s Finder Chronicles so I was eager to read her newest work. Ode to the Half-Broken is a dystopian story about a sentient robot, Be.  It didn’t feel too similar to Becky Chamber‘s books which is good for me because I didn’t enjoy those too much. I found the pace and technology […]

  The Alchemist and an Amaretto was an absolutely great listen for me. Every time I return to this world I’m reminded why these books are so addictive. The blend of magic, action, humor, and character development was perfectly balanced, and I was hooked from beginning to end. I am also completely invested in Cris […]

A Curse in Nuala by Harriet Steel @harrietsteel1 @sophiarose1816  #KindleUnlimited

A former maharajah is murdered, his legendary cursed sapphire stolen, and Inspector de Silva has his first murder case with a new boss under independent Ceylon’s government.  I’m so thrilled Harriet Steel continued the Inspector de Silva series beyond the great milestones of WWII and Independence with the sixteenth installment, A Curse in Nuala. Shanti is […]
