I love just about everything TJ Klune has written, and Somewhere Beyond the Sea is no different. The House in the Cerulean Sea was such a warm hug of a book. I loved the kids and how Linus blossomed in the light and love of the island. I expected more of the same with Somewhere…
Why is it that short weeks always end up feeling so long? Having a holiday on Monday should’ve made my week fly by, but Friday seemed like it would never arrive. Here is a round up of books I finished the week, blog posts, and life happenings. My week started off with the drive home…
Book Description “Anyone will tell you the born of this world are marked from the get-out, win or lose.” Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored…
Thoughts Masters of Death was a ride. Everyone came out to play: vampire, reaper, demon, angel, Death, godlings, and more. The dialog had me chuckling, cringing, and swooning. I am not typically a fan of angst or betrayal, but the emotions between Fox and Brandt were so well done. Their story is told through some…
I went into You & I, Rewritten thinking it was your standard rom-com – with the cartoon cover and a title that said ‘second chance’ to me, but that’s not really what I got. With my expectations being off, I didn’t like it as much as I anticipated. Synopsis Not to jinx it or anything,…
I had such high hopes for my October Reading, but mood reading and book hangovers had other ideas. I started strong with the next Guild Hunter book, Archangel’s Storm, Mister Impossible, and finishing up my ACOTAR re-read. A Court of Silver Flames left me in a bit of a book hangover, but a couple of…
I love The Scorpio Races and so tried to listen to Call Down the Hawk last year without knowing anything about it. I didn’t make it very far before putting it away, thinking that maybe The Scorpion Races was a one off for me and the author. Then I was introduced to The Raven Boys…
I have seen The Flatshare around but for some reason never thought it was for me. Thankfully my library had a different idea and included it in my library subscription service for this month. Synopsis from Goodreads: After a bad breakup, Tiffy Moore needs a place to live. Fast. And cheap. But the apartments in…
I’m not sure where to start with The Dead Romantics – I loved it so much. It was heart warming, sweet, poignant, funny, and heart breaking. I laughed throughout, and cried throughout. And not just teared up, but full on crying, can’t see my puzzle enough to work on it, crying. The Dead Romantics synopsis…
Remarkably Bright Creatures was sweet and comforting. It felt like a hug after a good cry. Synopsis: A novel tracing a widow’s unlikely connection with a giant Pacific octopus. After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped…
