I'm going to read a non-fiction book called Weapons of Math Destruction. If anyone is still looking for a book a lot of cozy mysteries have titles that are a play on words so you could check out one of those. https://www.goodreads.com/list/tag/co...
I read The Book of Cold Cases and really enjoyed it!

I'm going to read People We Meet on Vacation. Last month I read her other book, Book Lovers. It was just okay for me. But I've heard that her other books are better so we'll see.
I'm going to listen to the audio ofThe Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue because I've been meaning to finish it for awhile now. I'm sure I'll read other books this month to fit the prompt too though.
I am still making my way through Project Hail Mary on audio which won an Audie Award for Science Fiction in 2022.

I read (actually listened to) Dr. Sleep by Stephen King, the 2013 winner for best novel."I started Swan Song which won a Bram Stoker Award in 1987. I'm listening to it on audio and haven't finished it yet. It's just long and I haven't been in the mood recently. I still hope to finish it though.
I read Under the Whispering Door, TJ Klune. I like it but I didn't love it nearly as much as The House in the Cerulean Sea.

I loved the first one! Can't wait to read the rest.
The Cat Who Saved BooksI loved this fantasy novella about a cat and a young boy who enter alternate worlds to save books!
The Order of the Pure Moon Reflected in WaterI chose the word "sea" and used the synonym "water" for my keyword this month.
This is a novella about some bandits and a nun who must join forces to protect an ancient spiritual relict. I really enjoyed it.
UPDATE: I enjoyed this one. It's a short read and I thought it was a decent story- nothing too amazing imo.
