In!

Laura and Brittany
Elena and Mackenzie

Looking for anything in particular Laura?

The usual for me - I’m open but if it’s on my TBR that’s a bonus

How about you?

Hmm... I'm up for anything. Was trying to think if there was anything I was craving in a book but not really

Here ya go

1. Historical Fiction
or anything by Kate Quinn. I love her historical fiction
if you like Narnia, this was interesting to read.
comes out at the end of March
I loved this book, it was something else. This is a realistic look at what life was like after being diagnosed as a "leper" in the 1890's.

2. Green
on your tbr (and mine for that matter) green stems and leaves

its on your tbr, green and trees on cover. I really like this series, most recent one came out in January


I can always give you more if you want or need

Alright here you go:

1. Historical Fiction

- bleak but a good read

- quite a fun historical romance and quite underrated!

2. Green

Tress of the Emerald Sea - this was a fun standalone set in the cosmere!

- I quite enjoyed this

Others

- I loved this novella!

- Odd but I loved it! Sassy demons are a weakness of mine

Thanks for the picks, I think I’ll try to go with the Perfumist of Paris or Belladonna!

@Mackenzie Do you want something specific? I'm as usual open for any suggestion :)

I'm open for anything! a usual I've been reading a lot on KU but I'm fine with anything! I'll be able to do your picks sometime today when I have more time!

@Elena here are your picks!

Historical Fiction:

▪︎We are Not Free by Tracy Lee- This is about a camp in WW2. I love the cover of it and really want to read it myself!

▪︎I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys- I've Heard a lot of good things about this one and it's set in Romania

▪︎Curses and Smoke by vicky alvear Shecter- I can't express how much I loved this book. It's historicly accurate and the romance was beautiful!

▪︎Prisoner of Night and Fog by Anne Blankman- this was pretty good and was about WW2.

Green Covers:

▪︎The gilded wolves by Roshani Chokshi- I've heard a lot about this one and it looks really good!

▪︎The Maze Runner by James Dashner- A classic in dystopian books! The movies are good as well!

If you need any more recommendations just let me know!

@Mackenzie thanks for the picks :) Here are mine picks for you:

Historical Fiction:
- this book is just so good!
- Usually I don't pick the books like that, but for some reason I read it and it was also amazing.
- historical, Ancient Greece setting, great narration, a very beautiful and sad story, it might make you cry.
- something asian for a change, with all the cultural aspects, spirits, interesting turns.

Green:
- just a cute romantic story if you want to switch to something light.
- I know nothing about the book or the author, but seems like a cozy festive romance, always good to have one of those just in case.
- I didn't read the book, but the description caught my attention, might be something interesting.
- I picked that one because of the cover, looks gorgeous.
- and one more romantic story, very cute, has some issues, but overall a nice satisfying romance.

Thanks Laura! I've actually read Henna Artist, I liked it but didn't want to continue with the series.

I want to read Tress so badly but I wont buy it on kindle and I didn't get the kickstarter so I have to wait for the physical release to the general public :(

If my hold for Mysteries at Thorn Manner comes in I will read that! Otherwise, Notorious sounds interesting for something different or maybe Vespertine

Ah fair enough! Keep me posted on what you decide to read!

I actually ended up reading Belladonna last night and I enjoyed it! It was a bit cliché in parts but still engaging!

Cliche but worth it? Nice! Glad you enjoyed it :)

I think I might try New World: Rising! thank you Elena!

im in :)
