Voted Most Likely to Murder
Lacey Moone
VOTED MOST LIKELY TO MURDER by Lacey Moone is a fun mystery that will appeal to fans of Murder on Sex Island by Jo Firestone. It's a story about rising above fear you've failed, rediscovering your friends, and just how messy small town rivalries can be. Plenty of snark and very Canadian. #ewgc

Kill All Wizards
Jedediah Berry
Apparently I was very into funny fantasy this past month... The narrator's voice in KILL ALL WIZARDS by Berry cracked me up, as some overly mannered high society person explains the story of a Conan-type barbarian's vengeful quest against the city's wizards. #ewgc #booksky

This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me
Ilona Andrews
I wasn't sure what to expect from Ilona Andrews' isekai novel, but THIS KINGDOM WILL NOT KILL ME was a fantastic ride that sets up an epic Game of Thrones style world whose cruelty is being upset by a superfan who wakes up in that world. I love that she sometimes saves the day by geeking out.π #ewgc

The Somewhat Wicked Witch of Brigandale
C. M. Waggoner
Out next week, THE SOMEWHAT WICKED WITCH OF BIGANDALE by CM Waggoner is humorous fantasy done right with excellent footnotes and asides about storytelling tropes as it plays with fairy tales for a story about a witch trying to save her adopted son from kingship he's ill-suited for. #ewgc #booksky

A Murder Most Camp by Nicolas DiDomizio
Loved A MURDER MOST CAMP by Nicolas DiDomizio -- both the hilarious story of a too-rich heir forced to teach at a summer camp to get his inheritance and a sweet story of finding the people who truly see who your are. AND there's a murder mystery. #ewgc #booksky From @sbkslibrary.bsky.social
