Ruthiella Ooh! That‘s gonna be tough! 🤔😅 1w

AmyG I won‘t make it this month. 😞 1w

CatLass007 Does it have to be a debut author? Or can it be an author‘s debut work? 1w

Read4life That‘s what I was going to ask, @CatLass007 1w

CatLass007 @Read4life Every author was a debut author at one time! 1w

Read4life @CatLass007 Exactly! 1w

CBee @CatLass007 either is fine! 😊 @Read4life (edited) 1w

CBee @AmyG no worries 💚 1w

CBee @OriginalCyn620 the title alone is interesting 🧐 1w

CatLass007 Awesome! 1w

Meshell1313 Ooh that‘s such a good one! I have a few in mind! 1w

CatLass007 This is free on Audible until 10/07 and it is her debut work.

The Nature of Witches

CBee @Meshell1313 yay! 1w

CBee @CatLass007 sounds good! And perfect for October 😊 1w

CatLass007 We‘ve got to have witches in October. You should know that Griffin writes good witches. 1w

CBee @CatLass007 I agree! I had lots of witches the past few months reading Her Majesty‘s Royal Coven (series of three books). Now I‘m reading a stand alone by the same author

Queen B: The Story of Anne Boleyn, Witch Queen

CatLass007 Sounds like fun! 1w

CatLass007 Molly Harper writes fun witches. 1w

Meshell1313 I‘m hoping to read this one this month. Everyone is talking about it and this new author!

The Bees: A Novel | Laline Paull

pick

Interesting listen! Social commentary from the POV of bee Flora 717, a lowly sanitation worker who works her way up and eventually into the Queen‘s inner sanctum, and discovers secrets of the hive.

#tbrtarot - book where an animal is a main character

The Shadow Cabinet: A Novel | Juno Dawson

pick

Oooooweee I‘m in love with this series. I have a book to read for #TBRtarot, then headed right back into this world with the 3rd (and last 😢) book!

TheBookHippie Pretty pretty cover!!! 1mo

LittlebearReads I was so unbelievably livid about the way HMRC ended that I rage quit the series, but it looks like I may need to return to it! 1mo

CBee @LittlebearReads I feel that! But that cliffhanger - I just can‘t not know! 1mo

CBee @TheBookHippie all the covers are super cool! 1mo

monalyisha I feel the same way. 🖤 I took the Queen Bee detour and am reading (listening to) Human Rites now! 1mo

CBee @monalyisha I must read Queen Bee as well! Do you think it‘s best read before the 3rd book? Or more of a standalone? 1mo

monalyisha @CBee It‘s too early to say! 😅 I was hoping it would enhance my experience of the 3rd book but, so far, I don‘t think I would‘ve missed anything without it. I‘m not very far into the 3rd yet, though. Only time will tell! 1mo

CBee @monalyisha good to know! 1mo

BookBr Ahhhh is the third book out already?! 1mo

CBee @BookBr yesssss it‘s

Human Rites: A Novel

1mo

BookBr @CBee oh YAY! 😍 1mo

Katabasis (Deluxe Limited Edition) | R F Kuang

so-so

Finished this month‘s #TBRtarot right in the nick of time. This new Kuang satire? inspired by Dante‘s Inferno focuses on the perils of academia. Two students go into hell to save their professor but must go through every level. I wanted to care more about the characters but it was hard to get into. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Weyward: A Novel | Emilia Hart

This was such a beautiful story about the power of blood, the power of women, the power of the natural world. Difficult to read in parts (please note trigger warnings), but in the end, karma won (with plenty of magical help). I loved it! #TBRtarot (book with a green and GORGEOUS cover)

JenniferEgnor Loved this book! 1mo

2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas | Marie-Helene Bertino

This odd little book didn't entirely gel for me, but it had so many wonderful pieces that I'll call it a pick. There's a very strong sense of place, turns of phrase that made me it feel like the author was inside my brain, and some wonderful joyfulness.
