I'm definitely going to have to prioritize it for my next year's plans. People talk about it often on Reddit ..."


I'm on a 3 months for 99c deal for Kindle Unlimited thanks to Prime Day, and I found the whole series on there! :) So if you have access to that, check it out!!

First book has kiwi and naan in it, our last two remaining foods for that mini. So if both of us read it... :D

First time read for me. 15% in and LOVING it. It's so absurd and fun.

Now back to work on a Monday but had a nice weekend reading."


I know... it's devastating to think about. I'm still traumatized by yet another of my favorite series ending. *cries*

And no news on the Nell front as of now either. Hoping the most recent wasn't the last.

35559 Just finished They Fear Not Men in the Woods which works for the new “Forest on cover” task (unless it had to be started after we got the task assigned). :)

35559 Finished my last book for the round, just under the wire! Marked is as read and listed my letters. Let me know which you want to use it for and I can provide more details. Or I can add them to the spreadsheet in the AM

This challenge has pushed my reading mojo back into gear! I can't believe I'm almost hitting the max cap! I dunno if I'll finish this book before the deadline for this round or not. It's not grabbing my attention because the grammar is atrocious. Random thoughts. Getting their own sentences. When they aren't. Even sentences. And things that need to be pluralized verbs aren't, etc.

I'm also pretty sure that I have guessed who the killer is from their first introduction at like 7% in. *sigh*

This book has mixed reviews. I want to DNF but I feel bad DNFing a debut author and leaving a bad review (I have to leave a review because it's an ARC).

There's no way she teased it about a powerful witch and her brother and it's not Angie Baby and Lil Evan. THERE'S NO WAY.

I've read some of them. I don't love the Junkyard Cats series as much as her other works.

But the "powerful witch and her brother" book comes out next year!

Yeah I was totally disappointed when I found out we weren't getting Arabella's novel. BOOO on them. I'm looking forward to their new Kingdom and Inheritance novels, but I'm also ready to get a sequel to Julie's book!!

Have you read the Nell spinoff?

And there's a series starting from her next year I believe that is about "a powerful witch and her brother" which just HAS TO BE a grown up Angie Baby and Lil Evan!!!!!!!

35559 I was going to start my next ARC last night it didn’t meet any tasks other than letters, so I finally picked up The Housemaid by Frieda McFadden because it has “broccoli” in it… omg I haven’t been able to put it down. I started at like 10:30 last night, got to 40%, slept, and have been reading this morning already too. At 70% now.

35559 I’m so glad I signed up to join TT again. I wasn’t sure my reading mojo would return, and it might never be as insane as it was a few years ago, but I’m having fun and it’s helping me keep up my reading pace. And I like our team! ❤️
