Absolute banger of an opening page
pickThis is possibly my favourite of the series, I think. I love the fact that it's a trading of stories, and the way the tigers correct it. Still loved it on this reread!
pickOnce Upon a Winter‘s Eve (Spindle Cove 1.5), by Tessa Dare (2011)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Premise: A Christmas ball in Spindle Cove is disrupted by the arrival of a stranger — and possible French spy — who collapses at the feet of a resident about to be sent home to London, and who thinks he seems eerily familiar.
Review: This is a fun holiday romance novella that‘s a delightful addition to the Spindle Cove series.
little #library haul. “Can‘t spell Tea without Treason” fulfills my libraries and the r/fantasy‘s bingo square for “Cozy”. The Burning God fulfills another bingo square. #
pickThis was a reread, since I love this series but it's probably been years since I read the first (looks like it was 2020). It felt maybe a bit longer/slower than the most recent one (which isn't out yet, I had an ARC), maybe a bit more introductory, even though they all stand alone? But it's really satisfying how Chih slowly assembles the story to create a record.
It was also my #BookSpin, so we're off to a flying start!
pickThese novellas are packed with philosophy of the most heartwarming kind.
