🎧 The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love by India Holton  @IndiaHolton @EKNOWELDEN @BerkleyPub @PRHAudio #LoveAudiobooks

The Dangerous Damsels series began this world with its witty, hilarious antics.  The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love continues the tradition in a new series in the same world, Love’s Academic. It isn’t necessary to have read the previous books as they are not mentioned at all.  Those books are so fun I wouldn’t miss […]

🎧 Only Exceedingly Shy by Jann Rowland #JannRowland @bellowsaudio @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks @sophiarose1816

🎧 Only Exceedingly Shy by Jann Rowland #JannRowland @bellowsaudio @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks  @sophiarose1816

A twist in the classic story leads to a Pride & Prejudice variation story set against the backdrop of Regency London and puts a vulnerable, shy young lady at the heart of matters.  I’ve enjoyed a handful of Jann Rowland’s heartwarming, low-angst Austenesque romances and I was particularly eager when I saw that a favorite […]

  The Psy-Changeling Trinity the spin off series to Psy-Changeling. Overall,  it is like one big series.  I didn’t and wouldn’t read the later books without the foundation of the first series.  Singh has a style which is a great blend of paranormal romance and urban fantasy.  Each book has a romantic couple and we […]

🎧 Shades of Mercy by Bruce Borgos @BruceBorgos @jbabzbabson @MinotaurBooks @RecordedBooks #LoveAudiobooks

Obviously, I enjoyed everything about this next in the Porter Beck series.  The main point of view being a sheriff, with lots of military intelligence training, set in a small town with lots of natural beauty, are all positives.  Shades of Mercy has both spies, from China, and drug cartel gangsters from Mexico causing problems […]

🎧 Trouble in Queenstown by Delia Pitts @blacktop1950 @TheRealBahniT @MinotaurBooks @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I always enjoy a police procedural and new settings.  Trouble in Queenstown is a private investigator who used to be a cop.  Vandy has moved back to her hometown to deal with her grief and take care of her father as he ages. At first, it seemed somewhat quirky and cliche, more like a cozy […]

🎧 The Night Ends with Fire by KX Song #KXSong @natalienaudus @AceRocBooks @PRHAudio @BerkleyPub #LoveAudiobooks

Mulan is one of my favorite Disney movies so I looked forward to this retelling.  Be forewarned The Night Ends with Fire is not the feel good version. The basics of the plot are similar.  The details are much grittier and more misogynistic.  This time period allows women nothing.   Meilin is to be married off […]

Wow.  I love this Lady Sherlock series so much. I started by wanting to write Amazing! Brilliant! in the largest font I can use here. Then I thought about creating a huge graphic.  But that just tells you how much I enjoyed it and how impressed I am with this author but not why. I […]

🎧 You’ll Never Find Me by Allison Brennan @Allison_Brennan @@hillaryoutloud @HarlequinAudio @HarperAudio #LoveAudiobooks #JIAM

I always enjoy Allison Brennan and was excited to start this new Angelhart Investigation series.  I wasn’t able to read the prequel before this first book, but the author’s newsletter assured me that would be fine.  I will read it if it ever comes up in my library hold. You’ll Never Find Me has the […]
