Here's my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I finished reading Village Books by Craig McLay.
I'm not starting anything new right now. I'm just going to concentrate on the other 2 books I'm currently reading.

I finished reading Village Books by Craig McLay, 4 ★. Here's my review.

1. Did you complete and/or get up to date in any series this month?
I completed 1 series: Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series by Ransom Riggs.

2. Did you start any new series? If so, what were they? Will you continue?
I started 1 new series: Light as a Feather series by Zoe Aarsen. I will continue it, but I'm not in a hurry.

3. Did you move forward in any series (that you didn’t complete or finish)? How many?
I moved forward in 2 series:
In Death by J.D. Robb (#12)
Lucy Kincaid series by Allison Brennan (#8 &9)

4. Any standout or 5 star books read? Why did you love it/them?
The Desolations of Devil’s Acre (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children #6) by Ransom Riggs was most definitely a 5 star read, as all the books in the series have been. I'm sad to see it end.
I also really enjoyed the Lucy Kincaid books.

5. Overall summary of your reading month?
Although I am behind in my yearly goal right now (I'll get caught up when I'm on vacation in June/July) I'm happy with the 5 i did read.

No new ones this month.

3. Did you move forward in any series (that you didn’t complete or finish)? How many?
Nope

4. Any standout or 5 star books read? Why did you love it/them?
A Sky Beyond the Storm (An Ember in the Ashes #4) by Sabaa Tahir was a definite 5 star read. Excellent characters and story line, I was sad to see it end.

5. Overall summary of your reading month?
February went by way too fast and I was only able to read 3 books. I have some time off in March, so hopefully I'll get back on track.

I finished reading Maniac: The Bath School Disaster and the Birth of the Modern Mass Killer by Harold Schechter. Since I'm still reading Betrayal in Death (In Death #12) by J.D. Robb I will be holding off on starting a new book. The two I have planned are both mystery suspense books and I don't want to get the plots confused.
