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.
pickNight 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...
pick4⭐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
so-soWhelp, 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.
pickNovella 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.

pickThis is a pick x1000.
If you enjoy SF and LitSF I would highly recommend this. It's very short, it's beautifully written, and is highly political. I want to force strangers in the street to read it. So please stack add, go read the first chapter, let yourself get sucked into the writing.
pickThis was such a strange and wonderful book. I didn't realize an alien invasion romance was something I would love so much. But Denver's mission to understand recent bizarre events with the handsome Ezra was heartwarming, & heart-pounding, & so unique. The character journeys during the crisis were so well written. Denver is non-binary & autistic so he believes everyone in his small town dislikes him. But he is determined to save the town anyway
pick☄️☄️☄️☄️
This was lots of fun. Short and sweet, and almost cozy. Definitely want to read the next in the series.
