🎧 The Geographer’s Map to Romance by India Holton @indiaholton.bsky.social @EKNOWELDEN @penguinaudio.bsky.social @berkleyromance.bsky.social @berkleypub.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @IndiaHolton @BerkleyPub @PRHAudio

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 […]

🎧 A Proposal to Die For by Molly Harper @mollyharperauth.bsky.social #AmandaRonconi @berkleypub.bsky.social @penguinaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @mollyharperauth @BerkleyPub @PRHAudio

My current favorite genre is mysteries. I’ve always enjoyed this author and narrator so I was happy to try them in a new genre for them. The start was a bit slow since some of the characters were over the top cliché which, honestly, I accept more easily in paranormal romance than I do in […]

🎧 Overkill by JA Jance @JAJance ‏#KarenZiemba @simonaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @SimonAudio

I have read all three series by J.A. Jance for a long time. I always recommend to read series in order. This Ali Reynolds series is probably the least realistic of the three, and is not based on law enforcement personnel like the other series. I still love it. Ali was a news anchor who […]

Two Truths and a Lie by Cory O’Brien @bettermyths.bsky.social @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social @sophiarose1816

A near future LA that is mostly underwater where everything revolves around info rather than money is the backdrop to this noir style murder mystery. Cory O’Brien is a debut author and I was eager to give his cyberpunk noir mystery a shot because I was intrigued by this genre blend. Two Truths and a […]

🎧 Candy Apples and Clairvoyants by Danielle Garrett @daniellegarrett.bsky.social #AmandaRonconi @tantoraudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited @sophiarose1816 @authordgarrett @TantorAudio

A blast to Rosella’s past for this latest Sugar Shack mystery has her in a race against time to solve a mystery before it’s too late. What a delight that Danielle Garrett keeps adding to this light, but well-developed paranormal cozy mystery. Candy Apples and Clairvoyants is the eighth entry in a series that reads […]

Anthony Bourdain Unloaded by Juliana Sharaf #JulianaSharaf @sophiarose1816

Keeping it real with the chef who exposed the high end restaurant industry to the light of day and introduced us to the world’s ‘salt of the earth cooking’. Having watched Anthony Bourdain’s cable shows now and then, loving his style and enjoying how he made even the most exotic foods seem like an experience […]

🎧Dead Man’s List by Karen Rose @karenrosebooks.bsky.social @hillaryoutloud @penguinaudio.bsky.social‏ @berkleyromance.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @KarenRoseBooks @PRHAudio

I love the Romantic Suspense series. I’ve read them all. I started the series with the first Cincinnati book, with Faith and Deacon. It was actually #16 overall. Then I went back and read the previous 15 books. I would not jump into this in the middle of a series. One could start at the […]

🎧 Kills Well With Others by Deanna Raybourn @deannaraybourn.bsky.social @JaneOppenheimer @christinadelaine.bsky.social @penguinaudio.bsky.social @deannaraybourn @ChrisDelaine @PRHAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I had always wanted to read this author and really enjoyed Killers of a Certain Age. I was thrilled the Killers of a Certain Age would continue as a series. The women seemed to be retired without being erased after the last adventure about two years ago. We have Helen, Natalie, Mary Alice and Billie. […]

🎧 Deadman’s Dance by Marta Acosta @MartaAcosta @CindyKay_VO @tantoraudio.bsky.social @TantorAudio #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited

The main character is Maddie who struggles with aspects of her neurodivergent ways. I love her total care for her dogs and attempts to understand humans. She’s doing better with recently discovered biological dad, Abel. Maddie studied criminology and is part of the local Search & Rescue teams so she often gets involved with […]
