@AsYouWish #WickedWords
A good mix of books for Wicked Words this month! A graphic novel, a LGBTQIA+ SF YA anthology, a historical romance, a contemporary romance, and a prequel.

Pick of the crop: I think An Unexpected Party, though if you're not in Australia it might be hard to get your hands on. It's a homegrown Western Australian book.

AsYouWish Yay!!!! These look awesome!!!!💙💙💙💙 3d

I was curious to read Yardley's earlier work. This was a contemporary vanilla steamy romance between two restaurant chefs. The conflict/obstacle was mild and not particularly self-inflicted, which I always appreciate. Lots of cooking, and sex in cupboards.

And I'm done with #WickedWords for March! @AsYouWish
Also #38 for #BookChain #BookChain2024 @TheAromaofBooks

Congrats everyone who finished all the words in March or finished any words because you got books off your TBRs! Remember this runs all year, so whenever you find them it counts!

If you did not see my previous post, March‘s Book/Movie was The Breakfast Club.

Now who is ready to figure out April‘s #WickedWords Book/Movie?
-Ship
-Iceberg
-Wreck
-Passenger
-Voyage

Feel free to guess if you like, I will reveal at the end of the month!

CoffeeNBooks My guess is Titanic. 4d

maich I think it is Titanic 4d
AsYouWish @maich Hmmm… very good guess… maybe…😉 4d
Lauredhel Oh hello! Just finished March today so this is well timed :) Iceberg might be a tricky one to find... 3d
julieclair Titanic 🚢 Although an uncomfortable choice for me as I‘m on a ship right now! 😳😂 3d
AsYouWish @Lauredhel I think I am either going to do a reread of The Watch That Ends The Night (soooo good!) or I have an ARC called Ship of Dreams that I think might work. 3d
AsYouWish @julieclair I mean there is a chance that isn‘t the book/movie selection this month, but….😳! Hope you are enjoying the ship!!!💙💙💙 3d

If you guessed that the #WickedWords Book/Movie this month was The Breakfast Club, you were correct!

I did not get a chance to read the book yet, but it is on my list for this year!

Also - HAPPY BREAKFAST CLUB DAY! (Detention was held on March 24, 1984)

Yay! I finally completed my #WickedWords for January… it has taken me a bit to find a book where Colorado figured into the story. In the tagged book, one of the main characters is from Colorado. ✔️😀

A soft pick for the first #BakerStreetIrregulars buddy read. I liked the concept and the characters, but the pacing was all over the place. This definitely had “first book in a series“ vibes (hopefully it is!!), with a lot of character introductions. So many different mysteries meant that some things felt glossed over in the end. However, all in all a fun read, and I would definitely pick up a sequel.

dabbe I'm halfway through and agree with you 💯! 1w
BookishMadHatter This is the first Patterson book that's interested me in forever. The concept is making me curious 1w

When I was ambivalent towards the first Lord Peter book, I had SO many people tell me that the series gets better as it goes along, so I've had the second book sitting about for quite some time waiting for me to pick it up. I did enjoy this one more (and found Lord Peter less annoying), but I also thought the mystery was a little weak. Still, I'll get around to book 3 one of these days. Soft pick.

TheSpineView Great job!🤩📖📚 2w
Yuki_Onna Wow! 🤩 2w
Librarybelle I love that cover! 2w
BarbaraJean The series does indeed get better as it progresses! Books 4 and 5 are where it really hits its stride, I think. I keep slotting these into my #192025 list! 2w

And a surprise “princess“ in this rather good local anthology of YA LGBTQIA+ short fiction.
