So here is my plan: (listing just because I am computer illiterate and don't know how you all get all those neat little book covers on there) --I am currently reading: The Vengence of Mothers, An Interlude in Berlin, and The Captured Bride.
I plan to read: The Noel Diary, The House on Foster Hill, 223 Orchard Street, Origin, and The Summer I Met Jack.
And, yes, I read multiple books at a time (one paper, and one or two Kindle).

Use “add book/author” that’s on top of the comment box. They probably can’t be added using the mobile version or app.
my goal for may:

finishing three series, hopefully

Rebekah wrote: "......Sooo close to a 5 star read for me!"(I wonder why the book cover isn’t showing in your post.) I gave that book five stars, and I’m rather stingy with stars.
Sometimes when the book is linked twice in one comment, it makes an error for the second one.

I am stingy with five star ratings as well. A Beauty So Rare was a five star read for me too. :-)
Hannah wrote: "Sometimes when the book is linked twice in one comment, it makes an error for the second one."🤔 I’ve never noticed that before. Thanks for the info.
I noticed it because it's happened to me. Doesn't happen often, but it's crazy when it does!
And I also gave
five stars! I didn't expect to like it because of the cover looking like it would be really romancey, but then ended up loving it.
After these glowing comments, I'm even more glad that I have A Beauty So Rare on my list for this month! :)

five stars! I didn't expect to like it because of the cover looking like it would be really romancey, but then ended up loving it."Hannah, funny story on the cover...I had the opportunity to meet Tamera Alexander a few years ago and one of the things we talked about was the cover for A Beauty So Rare. Tamera didn't design the cover and indicated the look of the cover model/dress didn't fit exactly with what she had in mind. The publisher wouldn't change the cover so Tamera changed some of the book she had already "finished" so her writing would match the cover!
Staci wrote: "Hannah wrote: "And I also gave five stars! I didn't expect to like it because of the cover looking like it would be really romancey, but then ended up loving i..."That is hilarious Staci! I gave this book 5 stars as well:)

But then, I don’t remember much about the book because it’s been three years since I read it. I can’t believe it’s been that long. I would have said a year.
I love the book’s cover.
There was a scene where the heroine wore a pink outfit, so I'm guessing that was what got added.

How about a few suggestions for thrillers, suspense, and mystery?Thanks,

Rick, I'm not into swearing and bloody gory details with mystery/suspense. However, I do enjoy this series; it's unique being amish, Sworn to Silence. There is a reason she keeps adding to this series; readers like her books; full of suspense. You can even try the first book at a library, for the free cost or on a kindle; not as expensive. As always check reviewers notes on books
