I really enjoyed this series and can't wait to get into the follow up series next. Cassie and her daughter move to a new town after divorce. She inherited a bakery and house of her dreams but she never could have expected the truth behind it all. Or that magic was real. Her friend group grows and becomes the Brew-Hahas. I'd love to spend sometime hanging out with them!

November BOTM picks are live!!!

I love when they‘re up early!

What are we thinking?!

MittenGirlPeach I got three plus an add on this month. Nice choices! 23h
bookish_wookish Oooo @MittenGirlPeach I think it‘s going to be a skip for me this month! 23h
MittenGirlPeach @bookish_wookish I skipped a ton last year, which was my first full year, but this year I‘ve gotten at least one every month. Some for gifts, some just to branch out. I get too solidified in my reading choices, you know? Need more whimsy! Plus I‘m retired, so I have more time than others do. AND: winter is coming! 😉 23h

bookish_wookish I try to get what I can from my library unless it‘s a book I really want and can‘t wait! @MittenGirlPeach 23h
MittenGirlPeach @bookish_wookish ah, you‘re so right. I do library, thrift books, and BOMC. I love to share my books with a few best friends and my sisters-in-law, who are all big readers. I missed that when I stopped buying, so that was a big part of joining BOMC. But libraries are the best. 23h
KT1432 I‘m definitely getting Cursed Daughters. I‘m interested in the bottom 3 too but trying to buy less and use the library more for books I don‘t HAVE to have as I‘m running out of shelf space lol. 15h
bookish_wookish Same! I have Cursed Daughters on hold at the library as well as a few others. @KT1432 8h

Just finished Party Games and it was a wild ride! It‘s still the season for cozy and spooky stories and Party Games was just that. Here‘s to reading to calm the mind before starting a new job tomorrow. #fearstreetrelaunch #rlstine #paperback #spooky #cozy #horror #ya #partygames #dontstayuplate #halloweenweek #newjobanxiety

In the end, I didn't DNF this, but I was skimming a bit after about halfway. The portrayal of Vera feels like a mess of stereotypes, and I couldn't quite believe in the found family stuff because it's *true* that Vera made an awful mess of everything, and could have really harmed her “suspects“. The feel-good ending didn't quite feel earned, especially since the actual culprit was so very unhappy.

shanaqui I also guessed the murderer even though they're barely mentioned for most of the book. It felt so obvious from the way the story slyly peeped at them. 5d

I get why people like this but I'm finding it very cringe, and contemplating a DNF. It's sort of embarrassment squick, I guess?

Also I see now why there's so many POV characters (albeit third person limited), but I still don't have to like it.
