Is anyone getting the magazine thing, Issue 0? I am leaning towards yes but then again I don't know any of the authors and there are not too many details. But on the other hand, I may get it just to have it, ugh I don't know.

I don't know about a magazine. Is it literally a magazine on BOTM?? If so, I guess I missed it.

I think I saw someone say that it's on the app only and available to friends and BFFs. But it's called Issue Ø and it says it's short stories in a literary magazine. It was one of the hints that everyone was talking about.

OK, I see it now...Storytime. :)

I'm not sure yet which books I'm getting since I already got these from NetGalley


And I want this one that I requested from NetGalley, so if I can get it free I will:


Got this from the library:


For sure I'm getting these:

If I get the one I requested before the cut off date on BOTM, then I'll get something else. But they take SO LONG on some requests that I'm not holding my breath. lol

I got Five Broken Blades and can't wait to read! :)

I was sad neither Riley Sager's new one nor Ruth Ware's were on there. . .

I got and .

Plus an add on of .

It was surprisingly difficult to pick this month because they all look really good!

Elsa, last month I saw you got The Widower's Wife, which I never saw as an add on or thriller. Never found it but I did a search of the title and it came up, so I added it to my cart. Anyway, I appreciate seeing what everyone gets. You put this book on my radar so thank you! Besides The Widower's Wife I got Real Americans, Annie Bot, The Frozen River and Three Women published back in 2019.
If anyone was on the fence about Mercury, a January pick, I just started reading it now and it is excellent. Highly recommend!

I got and I'm so excited about it!

It took me forever to decide. I went with:

Glad you found it, sometimes they hide and you have to dig deep for them. The only reason I remembered to grab that book was because that was on one of my list reminding me to order when I had a space in a box.

I skipped... I already have so much too read.

I finally made my decision and ordered these today:



I also ordered these from my public library:

Yes! YAY! I can't wait...but, I'm a little unhappy with my order because I had totally forgotten that I got Heartless Hunter from NetGalley, so I feel like I wasted my money. But I was so attracted to the cover, I just couldn't resist. lol I'm ready to plan!

oh I do that all the time! I loved that one! I hope you do too!

I guess great minds do think alike! lol I'm glad to hear you liked it, so I probably will too. :)

I chose mine a couple of days ago but I went with I also got but I didn’t get it from BOTM because I wanted the pretty stenciled edges. But I’m excited for both!

I got Five Broken Blades as well. It’s my next read.
