I love books about dragons and dragon riders. This book felt a little different in that most of the dragons were mean jerks and their riders not much better. In this world, dragon riders are revered but to be one means a painful death will happen probably sooner than later. These dragons can have many riders over their lifetimes.

I liked the story of Anahrod. I think my favorite parts were when she was in the jungle. That was fascinating.

First novella in a fun Sci-fi trilogy with a dash of romance.

There is a heist. And, without spoiling too much, neither Ada nor Rian are what they pretend to be.

julesG Some reviewers said the reveal came as a big surprise, but it didn't for me. Guess I pay too much attention to the details on and off the page. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1w

CaramelLunacy I really enjoyed this! Ada's voice is just so much fun, and I adored her cleverness. I also really liked the footnotes reports at the end (but I have a weakness for footnotes). 1w

Finishing up the Stitch in Time series as my first book of 2025. I loved this series. I'll miss all of these characters and would love to hear that Kelley Armstrong has something new and quirky in mind for them. #01-2025

I finished my GR goal yesterday by finishing 2 of my way too many currently reading books (at one point I was at 29 🙄). One of my goals this year is to be more focused in my reading.

Reggie Great job! 3w

Night Watch | Terry Pratchett

Night Watch is a brilliant novel that offers far more than just a fun fantasy read. It's a deep and thought-provoking exploration of duty, justice, and the power of individual choices. Pratchett uses the Discworld setting to shine a light on the human condition, with all its flaws and triumphs, making this book one that will stay with you long after you've turned the final page...

BookmarkTavern One of my favorites! ❤️ 3w

4⭐This is Beth Rivas at her best. This is a fun space romp adventure that manages to pack a ton of action and intrigue into a very small space. The book is not a romance, but has romance in it that makes all readers want to continue flipping the pages. We start with a salvager who is in distress and puts out a help call to another ship. She‘s picked up by the rescue ship and becomes a temporary member of their crew to help with the current mission

Toward Eternity | Anton Hur

Whelp, that was a weird little trip.

Although nicely written, this book is a bit of a clusterfuck of sci-fi and questioning humanity and human existence. I listened to the audio book, and though it was engaging, I definitely found myself wondering “What‘s the point of this book”. Maybe I‘m not in a place to appreciate it right now, but it was a 🤷‍♀️ for me.

Our joint read for this month (science fiction). Sneaking in a few minutes of reading while waiting for my daughter‘s basketball game to start. This will wrap up our 2024 joint read - my partner and I alternate picks each month to read and discuss.

Novella about a werebear trying to decide between possible love interests: a werewolf, a fae, and a mortal human.

Amusing paranormal rom-com. Not really my genre but I enjoyed it without feeling I must rush out to get more of the genre or the author.
