Once again we go from PG cozy witchy fic to “let’s not have sex in the woods”

wait, wha??

I get lured into the sweet, cozy world then the author is like I know you also like smut and I’m just like guilty as charged but here it feels so out of place

Getting into this more. I do love an enemies to lovers trope. And a good hearted, cozy witch brewing magical tea is always a win.

Enjoying this one so far. Ruby the tortured maid and polite Mr. Christmas are making for complex villains with the rich demeaning assholes as complex victims.

Eddie Flynn’s team has expanded and we have a star lady kicking ass and handling things “diplomatically.”

Best Eddie Fly book so far

Been awhile since I’ve read some lawyer fic, really good series with a cunning and crafty lawyer outsmarting his opponents to ensure justice.

V excited to read this! Cover art is adorable.

His deep dark secret is…





…he is wildly successful.

I love HEA’s 😂

so far I liked beach read better but this friend group is v cyute

Very demure, very mindful.

also, Addie met Hemingway once or twice 🙄

I’m so tired of hearing how beautiful Addie is.
Her chest is too full and her waist is too narrow to pass as a man in men’s clothes
I know a lot of people looooved this but it’s not hitting
This woman basically spent 300 years getting laid, congrats, but also could there have been more plot, more meaning, more impact other than being hotttttt?

lol Addie is so gorgeous and inspiring she has been the muse of “hundreds of artists”

Never read this as a kid so yolo
20% in and damn, not what I expected
Pretty cringe, I wouldn’t encourage an 11 year old to read this
Starts with Margaret moving to a new town and a new girl befriends her then watches her change into a bathing suit? And Margaret said her staring was creepy.
Uhhh idk I thought this was an innocent uplifting childhood book but first vibe is creepy af

Just when I thought Frankie’s story couldn’t get ANY sadder, it does.

Whew. This book is good but the hits just keep coming for this very likable strong fmc.

It’s alright so far. Cool idea, but I’m having a hard time getting into it. Book club pick so I feel like I need to read it now versus the other books I would rather finish.

ptl I’m so over this one. I wonder if the show is better

Take a drink every time you read/hear the phrase three body problem.

Listening to the narrator read redacted documents was a low point of the audiobook.

Mood is ready to be done. Best part is the video game with people becoming pieces of leather.

So I was all ready to not read anything serious then Libby reminded me this book was due soon.

I vacillate between having no clue wtf is happening then enjoying the suspense and plot development.

This is not a background book, needs 100% laser focus.

Interesting ideas but damn I just need a few weeks of puff pastry literature.

Interesting novel, utterly depressing, I appreciate the reverence for the natural world, the exploration of new planets, understanding a child with autism, and a vegan as a character to aspire to versus being the joke.

I try to give a new cozy series at least two books and this one is confirming it’s not the series for me

The one dimensional portrayal of women is so dated. Despite not being a very old book. Every woman is appreciate for her “fine looks,” sex acts, or is a dumb city slicker trying to protect bears.

the narrator on the audiobooks really distracts wish I could’ve gotten the e book on this one too

38% and I’m so bored. This effort to read more classic works has felt like an effort. Hearing all about the minutia of Bruno and Guy’s lives is supposed to build tension after the murder but is just boring.

lol 28 hour audiobook seems excessive

not sold on this couple yet, I keep hoping this will branch off into two new love stories with people they both meet at the singles mixers but alas that does not seem to be the plan

I want someone to make a lazy version of this- super healthy recipes for people who want to spend <10 mins making a meal.

interesting but sooooo long

Less than five days to read >1000 pages?!!
