I'm late with my #bookspinbingo card for April @TheAromaofBooks but I promise I haven't peeped at the numbers or card yet 😋

Will sort out a grid soon!

Although there are some serious books here, I think I'm going to prioritise reading for pleasure over the next few months. I've been ruminating too much on heavy topics and I just want to sneak around a few Victorian or Gothic mansions and solve some murders.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4w

My 2023 Reading Bracket is complete. It was very hard choosing between Mistborn, A Curse of Krakens, Changes and Fool‘s Fate. All of them were favorites this year but Fool‘s Fate edged out just slightly for the win 🥇

Book two of the Tawny Man trilogy. This is largely a place marker where the events of the last book are mostly resolved and the scene for the next is set up. Fitz becomes further entrenched in Farseer plans as he becomes a mentor to the prince. His relationship with his foster son is stressed, but most of all his friendship with the Fool is strained to the breaking point. Great stuff. Hoping to get to the last book this year! 🤞

I'm gonna put this one in book jail.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID, BOOK!

julesG 😂😂 As long as it didn't have to go into the freezer 7mo
Ruthiella I know. I‘m afraid to read the next two in the trilogy. Hobb is not afraid to break the reader‘s heart. 💔 7mo
RaeLovesToRead @julesG Someone did this didn't they?? What book was it? I don't remember! 😅 7mo

RaeLovesToRead @julesG Or am I thinking of the time I put my friend's textbook in the freezer because she was studying at a party? 🤣🤣🤣 7mo
julesG @RaeLovesToRead Joey from Friends put Little Women into the fridge. And I think Rachel gave The Shining(?) a time-out next to the ice-cream 7mo
RaeLovesToRead @Ruthiella Hopefully the next 5 books will be less devastating... yes? No? 😅 7mo
julesG I wanted to put my last ARC into the freezer for doing something unspeakable to a cat, but that would have killed my kindle 7mo
RaeLovesToRead @julesG Which book was this so I can avoid like the plague? (Also, @KirstyJW just left "Cases for Paces" in the freezer and casually retrieved it at the end of the night, if I remember correctly ??) 7mo
julesG It's the new Benedict Jacka book. The cat is fine later on, but still, you don't hurt a cat. No matter whether the cat is real or fictional. 7mo
RaeLovesToRead @julesG The cat on the front of that book doesn't look hurt so much as REALLY PEED OFF haha. _fear the wrath of kitteh_ 😾 7mo

Halfway through my 2023 reading bracket for favorite book of the year. I wonder if anything in the second half of the year will be better than Fool‘s Fate 🤔
