Excellent review; I'm now more eager to read it!
I'm glad your first book of the year was so enjoyable!!

*High Five* at being tied! LOL

Reviews are personal & moody things! Take your time. :)
Sometimes, it takes me 20 minutes to leave a single-sentence review.

I have just finished my first book of the year: One for the Money - My Review

I've agonized between two selections a few times, but the worst is when I'm not interested in any because it feels like a wasted opportunity.

Nice! :) Thanks for the link!

I haven't received the email yet.

Aerosmith is a part of your lifetime soundtrack!

Walk This Way was my intro to Aerosmith, and I became a fan in the 90s when they seemed to be everywhere! :) I listened to their Big Ones album on repeat!

Waters all around!!! :) Happy New Year, Friend!

My reading for the year is officially complete. Review of 2023

I will now drown my housing problem sorrows by binge-watching Reacher on Amazon Prime.

Once again, Happy New Year! Stay Safe & Have Fun!

Interesting! Hopefully, this is another series my daughter and I can read together. While she is an adult, spicey reads give her the ick.

Murderbot, you say? Hmm.. TBR just got longer!

Happy New Year!! Have a beautiful 2024!!

Thank you! Happy New Year!!

Thank you!!!

Thank you! (((HUGS Back)))

It seems I am at that point where nothing is holding my attention.

I assume it's the stress of suddenly having to find a new place to live, and everything is price-wise out of range.

We are looking at a place on Saturday and hope it will work out.

LOL! I hear you. Even knowing I'm a mood reader, I still try to plan, with varying results. Doing the Buddy Reads (as opposed to Group Reads) helps!

I'm a bit obsessed! LOL
I don't expect to read all of them. They are either scheduled buddy reads or series I've wanted to read for a while (well, except the orc porn - that just happened! ROFL!!) There are a few more series I'm tempted to add but have resisted (so far). However, seeing them listed may help if I'm unsure what I want to read.

reserves 21 slots

Well, someone is all ready for 2024. LOL Guess I need to get in gear! :D"

Based on the trouble I seem to be getting myself into, the 21 spots may not have been an exaggeration after all! *Sigh*

First! :)

Have a fantastic 2024!
