Kicking off with book three and Lake has already set the stage. Should be interesting.

One note for Tess Lake, an Olympic sized swimming pool holds about 660,000 gallons of water, not several hundred.

Other than the above, I'm enjoying book two. It's fun and the our protagonist's voice is stronger. These books are good fun, so far.

This is popcorn. It's not bad. It's not great. It's digestible.

Super cozy. Super simple. Not terrible. Reviews seem to indicate a strong similarity to another witch series.

This all very well written, but I'm not sure it's for me.

I may be suffering from taste. I had several opportunities to get into this book this weekend and I didn't. Not because it's a bad book. It's not. It's actually quite compelling, but I'm just not a cosmic horror guy.

In the same way that I judge a book good that has me making excuses to read it, I have to judge a book as maybe not for me if I'm skipping opportunities that already exist.

We'll see what I do.

OK. I don't like cosmic horror, but it's so damn well written. It's like watching a car wreck. You know you don't want to see it, but it's just so interesting.

OK. Cosmic horror has never been my thing. I get it, but it's not me. That said, I'm rather enjoying the newsroom stuff. And this story is compelling, so I'll keep going.

Well, I'm going to call the open weird. That said, it's compelling. I'm hooked in. Let's see where they take us.

I listened to the opening 2/3rds this morning while getting my car serviced. I'll finish up later today. As always, Timothy Wolff has a great voice.

I know this is a romance and it's got romance vibes, but I am genuinely interested in the outcome. I'm enjoying this book quite thoroughly.

Well, we have shifted into the part of the story that keeps you reading past your targeted stopping point. I'll burn through this one pretty quick.

It’s starting to take hold.

This is a great story so far. It's shaping up to be an interesting series.
