pickI really liked this one. There were a few parts near the end when I thought I was going to be angry with how it was going to end. It doesn't have a cliffhanger per se, but there is unfinished business for sure. I enjoyed the story and the writing. I listened to this one on librofm and the narrator was excellent. I will probably read more of the series eventually.
pick4.2⭐️ This is quite a twist on the Sleeping Beauty legend, but I really enjoyed it. I expected more with the ending, but Im not quite sure what more would look like. Definitely a quick and easy read by Kingfisher, but still feel that it is absolutely worth the time.
I‘m glad you reminded us @TheAromaofBooks because I‘ve been too busy to think about #bookspin these last few weeks!
Since my books are currently all in boxes, these are all on Libby or my ereader, with the exception of two which are saved out. The last two on the list are for bookclubs. 🙂
I picked up one of those "blind date with a book" deals at the bookstore and this was my prize. The prompt was "For the reader who loves an endearing outsider, fairy tale retellings, and a hint of tragedy." It might not be my very next read, but I am looking forward to it when I do get into it.
I‘ve never really been one to reread books. I‘m always anxious to get started on a new book and find a new fav. But I have been thinking a lot about some of my fav books and decided to give this one a reread since I originally listened to it on audio. So far, it lives up to how I remember it. Bizarre, dark, gruesome, and magical ✨🦢
Maybe I need to reread books more! How often do you reread favs? How do you balance new reads and rereads?
pickAbsolutely fantastic version of sleeping beauty. I really love when authors take an existing fairytale and completely turn it on its head.
Nevermind the astonishing amount of cat hair. Bastet has been rolling around.
