pickThis one is a low pick for me. I liked the characters put the plot was just so off the rails I couldn't get totally invested in the story. I've said this numerous times, I prefer characters and plots are at least plausible, if not, then the writing must be of such quality as to make up for the short comings. 3ish Stars
I doubt I will read the other books in the series. #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #REad2025 @DieAReader #LitsyLoveReads

But I can hear my physical TBR screaming at me

pickMid Month recap #Bookly - Im catching up on some doctors appointments this month & some other necessities which is why I haven't been on much.
Not a bad start to the year but nothing has seriously given me shock & awe. Did manage to read two books from #ReadYourKindle list @CBee 🥳. I will update both my kindle & #BookspinBingo board for #January @TheAromaofBooks
I am loving the Forgotten Kingdom Chronicles the deeper I get into the series.
panGrowing up, one of my weekly TV viewing highlights were the repeats of 'Moonlighting' shown on British tv. The quick wit back-&-forth between David Addison & Maddie Hayes was a treat, until they brought Bert Viola onto the scene. I decided to read Shepherd's autobiography on a whim & it was OK.
'Moonlighting' itself takes up a very small part in the book (a couple of chapters at the most) & the majority of it is about Shepherd's love life.
Every time I start getting a bit bored, it brings me back in. I‘m really growing to love this series.

#readyourkindle I‘m enjoying this mess of a book , about half way through. Babitz really wrote about her life generally in fictional form. I do like those sort of loosely written books that were written mostly in the 60s-70s about party people consuming too much of everything. There is a sadness for me now, Eves stories are very LA and my heart is breaking for all the loss from the fires. Unfortunately, more Santa Ana winds Monday -Wednesday 😞😢

pickWhile this one wasn‘t necessarily twisty, it was definitely murderous! Fun for a short story. Finally, one off of my #readyourkindle list! @CBee
Finished 4 books so far this month.

I haven‘t started the book yet for the #whimsicalreadsbookclub but I looked at the reading schedule and it looks like I still have enough time to read the book. I‘m glad because I have a lot going on this month with reading. I‘m doing #noplacelikeholmes, #roll100, #bookspinbingo, #readyourkindle and this book club but I still have plenty of time in the month. There‘s no need to rush. I can go at my own reading pace. Reading is not a race.
