Book cover for Forever, Interrupted by Taylor Jenkins Reid
A friend lent me a Taylor Jenkins Reid book Forever, Interrupted and I felt obligated to read it quickly to return it. That I did. It was just ok, a bit of a tear jerker, and I was a little bored honestly. I much preferred the 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. 2.8 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for I, Medusa by Ayana Gray
Finished up my evening with I, Medusa by Ayana Gray. Given the raging toxic masculinity undergirding seemingly everything right now, this is exactly what I needed despite knowing the ultimate fate of Medusa. I loved this reimagining and can’t wait for more from Gray. 4.6 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman
I know I’m late to the party but I enjoyed the party nonetheless. Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman is a fever dream video game with Running Man echoes. I enjoyed the characters, especially Princess Donut the cat, and can’t wait for the rest of the series 4.9 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for The Scammer by Tiffany D. Jackson
Finished The Scammer by Tiffany D Jackson last night. I have loved the other three books by Jackson that I’ve read but this one was a bit of a stretch for me. I just didn’t find the story compelling or somewhat believable. It was a nice quick read though. 3.4 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for The Burning God by RF Kuang
“So your plan is to annoy them to death,” Kitay said. “Bad morale is a big weapon, Souji said. “Don’t underestimate it.” Finished this long dark historical fantasy trilogy. The grueling depiction of constant war and its consequences was tough to get through but I’m glad I did. 4.4 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for His & Hers by Alice Feeney
Finished up His & Hers a psychological thriller from Alice Feeney. I liked it a bit better than Rock Paper Scissors. It kept my interest and I wasn’t able to predict the twist at the end. I know it’s been made into a TV Series. I may check it out someday. 3.8 ⭐️s. #booksky
DOJ has since killed this link. This is what was there:

There’s a Golden Girls episode for everything, I guess. Not that I think this is a solution. Hard to believe this was 40 something years ago. #GoldenGirls #Palestine #Greenland
Book cover for Interesting Things About Space by Emily Austin
I just finished a quirky little novel that was fast-paced and unique—Interesting Facts About Space by Emily Austin. I enjoyed the characters in this novel as they each came with their own sources of trauma. I thought the ending was a bit abrupt and awkward but overall I liked it. 3.9 ⭐️s #booksky
There is the very real possibility that this was an ordered premeditated execution. They are collecting data on protesters and observers. #AlexPretti

Book cover for A Conjuring of Light by VE Schwab
Finished the last book in VE Schwab’s Shades of Magic trilogy. A Conjuring of Light had me on the edge of my seat. A perfect ending to a thrilling fantasy series full of magic and action. Loved it and would recommend. 4.8 ⭐️s. #booksky
All he wants is a “piece of ice.” Where have I heard that before? #Davos #dumpy #Trump
Nothing less than Nuremberg style trials AND sentences will quash this from the US. These murderers are descendants of people who liked to have Sunday picnics under trees with strange fruit. We never punished the confederacy and here we are again. These are death camps not detention centers.
Book cover for A Gathering of Shadows by VE Schwab
Finished up the second book in this series A Gathering of Shadows by VE Schwab and can’t wait for the last book. Lila Bard is one of my favorite characters in any book and I just love the mix of action and fantasy in this series. 4.9 ⭐️s #booksky
My feed is primarily book covers too. So instant follow.

Lived this one. Reading A Gathering of Shadows now. Hope you enjoy!
Book cover for The Dragon Republic by RF Kuang
Wow. I just finished The Dragon Republic by RF Kuang and I liked it better than the first book in The Poppy War series. It’s just a wonderful mix of fantasy and history and I couldn’t put it down. Looking forward to the last book. 4.8 ⭐️s #booksky
Is Zoe’s Tale a necessary read for the series? My library doesn’t have that one.
One huge difference that basically assures this will never happen — nukes.
One of the best reads of the year for me. Scary and heartbreaking but so good.
Book cover for Ask for Andrea by Noelle W Ihli
I hope everyone is having a happy holiday season. I finished this thriller Ask for Andrea by Noelle Ihli over the holidays. It was a page turner and I didn’t know what to expect because I’d never heard of this author. Loved the bear reference and can’t wait to read more from her. 4 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for Slewfoot: a tale of bewitchery by Brom
“At least cruelty was a thing that could be pointed out, confronted. But this belief, this absolute conviction that this evil they were doing was good, was God’s work—how, she wondered, how could such a dark conviction ever be overcome?” #Slewfoot #booksky 4.9 ⭐️s Highly recommend
Book cover for Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney
Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney was just ok for me. The premise of one of the characters having face blindness was interesting but all of the characters were unlikable. And the twist at the end was weirdly executed. At least it was a fast read. 2.8 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for A Darker Shade of Magic by VE Schwab.
After finishing A Darker Shade of Magic by VE Schwab, I am so excited for the rest of this trilogy. Loved the characters, the fantasy worlds, magic, and the action-packed story lines. Highly recommend. 4.9 ⭐️s #booksky
Book cover for The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead.
I finished The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead. As expected, it broke me. This is the 2nd book based on the Dozier “school” for boys I have read. It well researched historical fiction and beautifully written ugliness and horror with a twist at the end. Should be required reading. 4.8 ⭐️s. #booksky
Book cover for The Diamond Eye by Kate Quinn
Finished The Diamond Eye by Kate Quinn this weekend. I enjoyed this one for the most part but thought the other books in her series about women in WWII were better. Interesting story about a Russian woman sniper who killed a bunch of Nazis that was largely based on her memoir. 3.9 ⭐️s. #booksky
Book cover for Allegedly by Tiffany D. Jackson
I ❤️Tiffany D Jackson. Allegedly was a tough emotional read for me. It was an all too realistic psychological thriller about what happens to children with no stable adult support in their lives who get trapped in state supervision. The ending shocked and confused me. 4.2 ⭐️s #booksky
The only good cop shows were The Shield and The Wire.
Book cover for All the Sinners Bleed by SA Cosby.
Finished All the Sinners Bleed by SA Cosby a couple of nights ago. It was’t my favorite of his but it was still really good. I like the way he situated thriller story in the racial tensions of a small Virginia town. Very well done. 4.3 ⭐️s #booksky
