I was recommended (told) that I MUST read the second book in this series immediately. That it was better than the first, and I'd regret having waited to get to it. That recommendation wasn't wrong. It was definitely not a waste of time. I'm hoping I can get to the third book very soon. #25-2025

A short, delightful, and inventive trip back to the world of Holly Black‘s Folk of the Air series!

This is a soft pick only because the first 40% was rather boring. I bailed at that point but picked it up again. Glad I did. Loved the narrators in the audio book. I‘ll add the sequel to my wish list.

Fantastic on audio

Just finished this morning. I honestly loved this book! it is not sweet and happy but does feel cozy. It feels like a more fleshed out Fairy Tale, but with humor. I loved the premise, the fairy stories sprinkled in and the way the book evolved. If you like actual Fairy Tales you may enjoy this! I would love to hear from anyone else who read it about their thoughts also!

Happy Weekend! Today we rearranged our little apartment and I got to re-do books again! Though I packed away more for storage, the remaining ones are beauts (not shown: my rainbow set for bugs to pick from).

Tagged (audio): great in parts; slow in others; felt a little ya, but overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Death Row? Good, but not great. Unexpected ending - not my fave. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Reading Rabbits & listening to Crescent City 2 (audio), but with a full cast!

I wanted to like this. It draws extensively & specifically from (mostly) Celtic folklore about the fae. I forgive a lot with a 1st book in a fantasy series because we have to build out a whole world but my issue was:
I was taken out of the plot so many times by a characters behavior:
-Why is Toby kissing this guy? Why do we like him?
-why is this character mad at Toby?
-Why doesn‘t Toby just tell the truth?
Etc
Also ..not what a hope chest is.
