If you enjoy The Mummy with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz (I do!), I feel pretty confident stating you will enjoy this book. This was a lot of fun. I read in print and listened to this one and highly recommend the audio.

Finished January 19, 2025.

Reggie Can you believe those movies are almost 25 years old? I feel old Margie. lol 11h

I'm glad I listened to the audiobook for this one since I didn't know how the word "viscount" was pronounced ?

It took me longer to get into the 3rd book in the Loyal League series than any of the others. Janeta's perspective was hard to read, as a mixed race Cuban woman initially spying for the Confederecy who didn't understand the horrific system she was helping to perpetuate while also falling victim to. That said, her journey was handled with thoughtfulness and honesty that I think is important to show, and I was eventually fully swept up in the story.

rachelsbrittain I think my timing in reading this also made it more difficult. Cole talks in the author's note (written circa 2018) how hard it was for her to write this book specifically and how she likely wouldn't have been able to write this series today. Still, there's hope in how far we've come and remembering that we are always fighting and striving for a better tomorrow. 3d

A recently escaped counter-intelligence operative for the Union and a botanist helping him hide right under the noses of the Sons of the Confederacy fall for each other despite the danger in the second book of Alyssa Cole's Loyal League series. This was my favorite of the series. I loved Marlie and Ewan so much.

Butterfinger Such a pretty cover. 3d

Settling in for a much needed reading weekend amidst everything. I‘m in the middle of Accidently His (romance and espionage!), what should I read next? Currently leaning toward the Glutton since it‘s been on my TBR for a while.

1. My favorite thing about winter is taking pictures of the landscape on beautiful winter days.
2. This is the first book that came to mind. The romantic leads get stuck in a snowstorm and have to spend the night together. This spicy romance is a great winter read. ❄️🔥
