Our Beautiful Boys is a look at how boys will be boys. Three high school boys that become kind of friends after one joins the high school football team at the end of the season. One is white, one Latina, and one is Indian (hus family from India). One night the all 3 go to a party. What happens effects not only them but also their families. Secrets will come out.

pickThis is the first cozy I‘ve read that didn‘t involve an active murder investigation. It was enjoyable enough, though. To be fair, the title implies that seeds of murder are planted, and this is the first book in this series. Books 2 and 3 do have murder investigations so I‘ll give the next one a try. This one did have mysteries, and in the process of figuring them out, an old murder is solved. A soft pick!

Up next…it‘s been on my bookshelf for a while and I‘ve recently seen some good reviews. The “Hidden Pictures” are drawings throughout.

pickThis is cute. There are a lot of these types of books now but I believe this was one of the first. I don't know if I'm just over this genre but I do not feel compelled to read the rest of the series.

A bingo so early in the month?! Unprecedented for me. And yet here we are.

pickThis is the second book in the Miner & Mulville series, but can be read as a standalone. I have not read the first book and was able to follow this book just fine.
My first impression was that it was very evident the author is a doctor. The medical parts were incredibly detailed.

pickThis full cast production was fabulous! And AC really knew how to craft a mystery. I‘m always surprised and impressed when I read her books!

pickAnother good installment in the series! This one lacked the tension and action of the previous books, however, through multiple POVs, we get to know the beloved characters better. But IMO, any time spent with Rhysand is time well spent. 🤣

pickSkin and Bones: And Other Mike Bowditch Short Stories by Paul Doiron consists of 8 stories. Mike Bowditch is a Maine Game Warden who over explains, gets on the last nerve of hus superiors, and loves his jib, though sometimes he dies fet frustrated. The first 3 deal with Mike's mentor, Charley Steven's. The others deal with Mike from when he was a younger Game Warden, with the last one being a present one in the series.
