so-soNarration was top notch!
This one was giving “The Wicker King” vibes, and I liked Ancrums more. Fans of this book definitely should check it out.
A heartbreaking story!
I‘ve got my May #Roll100 ready to go! So far I‘ve been finishing one of my picks each month, which will probably continue to be the case. @PuddleJumper
Leftover dandan for breakfast, alongside the next Dreamhealers novel. I think I‘m just gonna punch through to the end of this series now. It‘s nice to have sustained time with the characters instead of wondering when I‘ll get to see them again. The individual books are expensive and they‘ve never gone on sale the whole time I‘ve had them on my wishlist, maybe because of their inclusion in subscription services.
I made the trip over to the far railway station this morning so I could visit Chenonceau, which was lovely! I spent a good hour tromping around the grounds before I even went into the chateau, and I had a lunch & book break in a whimsical garden dedicated to landscape architect Russell Page, with sculptures by François Xavier Lalanne.
I finished DREAMHEARTH when I got home, and it was another lovely read from Hogarth. Such great characters.
I haven‘t read much since I last posted because I did make it to Villandry along the Loire à Vélo! It was an amazing day. The path itself is beautiful and these gardens were absolutely worth the trip.
This was also my longest bike ride ever—more than 50km! It was my first ride of 2025, too, so we‘ll see if I can move tomorrow.
Now I‘m gonna chill with my book. I‘m excited to dive back in.
I‘m up earlyearlyearly to see if I can rent a bike and explore the Loire à Vélo, but first: coffee and book. I read the first third of DREAMHEARTH while I waited for the rain to back off yesterday, and I‘m excited to read at least a third more today. If the bike rental isn‘t possible, or if there are lots of scenic lookouts to stop at, maybe I‘ll even finish it.
so-so⭐️⭐️The cover is better than the actual book. I figured it out early on. It‘s an interesting concept but it didn‘t work for me. Forest vibes are one of my faves, I wish we spent more time there rather than in the MC‘s head repeating things over and over again rather than move the story forward. Pacing was off. But the cover is stunning.
pickOoh! This was rather delicious - had me nervously wondering if Thomas & Andrew were going to survive the telling of the tale.
I‘m a long term admirer of CG (highly recommend their Instagram @ paperfury) but first time reader and have to say love the forestcore horror vibe with an unreliable narrator with plenty of secret to reveal, twists to unravel and events (and beautiful sentences) that make you go like this 🫢
My first read for #LBQTHistoryMonth2025 is the tagged. I LOVE it but didn't realise it was part of a series. If I wanted to read the other Green Creek books, would it matter that I've read #3
first?
I love this graphic from @QueerChameleon 🏳️🌈 Says it all really.
