bailedThis is a bail because of content, not writing quality. It contains Broms beautiful writing and art. It is also a very interesting retelling of Peter Pan. Just the violence against children is very extreme and just not something I enjoy reading. #hailthebail #dnf

pickThis is what I would call an intermediate book for witches. It discusses the pros & cons of coven life, to come out of the broom closet or not, sneaking in some witchiness into other holidays and other subtle ways to practice your craft 🐈⬛

pickMila, a single witch feeling lonely over the holidays, brews up a love potion on Christmas Eve, that will make her fall in love with the first man she sees. Next thing she knows, she‘s being arrested for murder by Riley, a wizard police officer. They form a connection, but Mila wonders if it‘s real or if it‘s because of the love potion. A paranormal romance with a dash of cozy mystery and was so cute!
#bookspinbingo-my #bookspin for this month
pickWhen Shirley tells you in the first 3 pages to get the smelling salts & get ready for the surprise of your life, she‘s not kidding! “Real-life” Shirley is not at all like her squeaky clean image. Includes both sweet & wild stories about her films, her family, her troubled marriage to impressively endowed Jack Cassidy & all the behind-the-scenes infidelities. Gotta admire her candor in this hair-curling page-turner!☺️🌶️

so-soMy #BookSpin for October was definitely a different story from what I was expecting. I was thinking it would be similar to The Omen by David Seltzer, but a demonic baby instead of a child. Instead, it's about Rosemary being raped, gaslighted, lied to, manipulated, and surrounded by misogynistic Satan worshippers. How she was treated was more unsettling than the story was scary, but I might have felt differently 20 or so years ago.
pickThis was such an entertaining graphic novel!
The premise was super fun. Basically, one day the sky turns purple and it causes people to create scientific breakthroughs and become superheroes and supervillains.
At times the story was somewhat hard to follow because of the many characters. However, there is a cast list at the end of the book.

pickThis is book 2. I like this series so far. Highly entertaining.

Here are my weekend goals for the #JustOneMoreChapter readathon. I just stared Bride last night, but would love to finish it plus the next two in the queue!! The weather is looking gorgeous and we have a ton of little projects to get done, but I am hoping to squeeze in plenty of reading, too!!
