My family was talking at dinner one night, when the subject of cremation came up, as it does. When I wasn’t quite able to grasp the concept of Aqua Cremation, my daughter brought up a helpful video posted by Caitlin Doughty in her “Ask A Mortician?” segment on YouTube. In a funny and engaging way […]
I started Red River Road on audio and just felt confused. There are three main characters: Katy, Beth and Wyatt. Wyatt is a child and seems a bit unconnected to the story for most of the book. Katy and Beth seem like unreliable narrators of the story which is not one of my favorite things. […]
Sophia’s Review Her carefully cultivated average, low-risk life has just been toppled when a routine collection case is anything but routine. Kathy can go back to hiding away from the world behind her safe walls or she can help save a soul- literally. Who could pass up a middle-aged mid-divorce grim reaper with a poor […]
I was happy to read more in the world of the Iron Druid Chronicles and we do get a scene with each of the three Druids. As I expected, we are dealing with Al’s curse and how Roxanne will live in the human world. Nadia embarks on her own path of creating a religion of […]
The Fake Wedding Project is a completely cute, forced proximity and fake relationship trope book. The added bonus is that Amanda and Dane of the afore mentioned fake relationship are from warring families in the little town of Tinsel that looks like it is celebrating Christmas all year round. When Amanda accidently work vomits, she […]
I started reading the eARC, way back in January before it was released, and got about 24% into it and just couldn’t catch interest. Now I had a chance to try it on audio from the library and it went much better. I don’t know if it was mood timing or what, but I really […]
Anne’s Review I loved this! I am so glad I was able to squeeze this one into the schedule. The Serial Killer’s Guide to San Francisco was very smart, fun and easy to read. Our main point of view and teller of the story is Capri. She is a divorced mother of a graduate student […]
Any story with a main character librarian is worth considering. Sherry moved about 6 years ago to take the position in Winesap, New York. She has had quite a run on solving mysteries of town murders recently. She enjoys being good at it. I liked Sherry and her personal journey throughout the story. Her sort of […]
I am a huge fan of Dannika Dark’s Crossbreed Series. Prior to this read-along, I hadn’t considered that it was a spin-off series. I was excited to discover the connection when the Mageri Series was selected as for the Blog’s read-along (Thanks Anne!) and eager to see where it all started. It is only by […]
The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). This is a collection of freebies I have read which have some sort of home renovation in the plot. Chirp freebie on November 30, 2023 (currently $7.99 at Chirp and $7.01 at Audible, and in Kindle Unlimited as of […]
