pickNot quite time travel, but definitely time travel adjacent, which is close enough for me. I liked the interconnectedness of the characters and the overall optimism. I think it would appeal to people who liked Before the Coffee Gets Cold.
pickI've had high expectation on this one. All those good reviews spoiled me a little. Not the best way to start a book, right? But Higashino did not disappoint. Far from it. I think I had tears in my eyes when I read the last few pages. Such a touching story, so very well crafted. The whole book is magic, too!

pickThis book was absolutely perfect! Three thieves hide out for the night in a closed down but magical general store and receive a letter asking for advice. They decide to answer the letter and soon a mystery unfolds. They way the stories interconnect was genius. I borrowed it from the library, but want to buy my own copy so I can re-read it whenever I want and force my husband to read it too.
Starting this tonight before bed. Looking forward to it.
Still working my way through the #PromptMaze

Great way to work through my TBR and it‘s so fun. 🥰🥳
pickWhen three delinquents hole up in an abandoned general store after their most recent robbery, to their great surprise, a letter drops through the mail slot in the store's shutter. This seemingly simple request for advice sets the trio on a journey of discovery as, over the course of a single night, they step into the role of the kindhearted former shopkeeper who devoted his waning years to offering thoughtful counsel to his correspondents. 5-stars
These people are no different from the rest of us. They have a hole in their hearts, and something vital is bleeding out.
pickthis book is a bit out of my usual wheelhouse but I ultimately enjoyed it. the use of magical realism with a plot that loosely connects all the characters is both fun and a little absurd. at times, it also feels a bit too much like a froofy inspirational story but the aspects based on interacting with the past were pretty neat.
This has been a weird reading year so far. I've mostly done soothing rereads and it's ok. On the other hand, there is a constant flow of interesting new books that I keep piling on my TBR (pictured above) and soon my TBR will reach the moon.
But since I'm a mood reader to the Extreme, we just have to go with the flow. 🤔
