Audiobook of the moment

Listening to the audiobook. There are few strange pronunciations but nothing that will stop me from enjoying the book. I live in Vancouver and I've never heard "Burrard inlet" pronounced the way the narrator does. I'm only 5% into the book but I'm liking this much more than "The Housemaid" which is a similar genre but didn't work for me. The characters are much better developed and I'm excited to keep listening.

Listening to the audio of this. I needed a new audio book so I decided to give it a try, not loving it so far but not sure if it is something I would enjoy more if I was reading on paper or if it just isn't my jam. Right now it feels a little over simplistic and I'm kinda hating how stupid the main character is.

Listening to the Graphic Audio version of this as my current audiobook. Not sure I will continue with this series.. I liked the first few chapters but it is starting to feel a bit dated with all the alpha male stuff and I'm not really invested in the story.

Oh my gosh! Somehow I missed that Jessie Mihalik had a new series out in 2020 (I love her Consortium Rebellion series) and I only discovered this series recently. Luckily I had a bookstore gift card to use so I treated myself to the first two books - book three isn't out yet I don't think.
OMG - I love it so far. It is the kind of book that makes me smile reading it and makes me forget where I am!

re-reading via audiobook. Wanted something comforting to listen to while crafting and this fits the bill!

Completing my re-read of the Strike books in time for the release of the new one!

Re-read after watching the TV version (which I loved but left so much out!)

Re-reading to purge that disappointing Netflix series from my mind!

hmm, I'm liking this but not as much as I liked the London Celebrities books. This seems a bit heavy handed and I'm finding too much like a GBBO fanfiction.

Took me a few chapters to get into it but I'm liking it so far! I like the heroine way more than the hero at this point but that might change. Side note: I love the idea of having a potion you drink that makes you get your period all at once so you only have to deal with it for like 12 hours. Plus the smart women in this society take it with a sleeping potion so you sleep though the awful cramps.

I couldn't wait any longer to start this! I'm going to be so sad when I'm finished and there isn't a 6th I can start right after this!

Re-reading :)

Last book of 2020!

hmm, not quiet pulling me in. Not sure if it is me or the book, might put it down and try again later.
