pickQueer sci-fi cozy mystery that takes no time at all to read.
pick4.5 ⭐ A storyteller must be a semi genius to make an entire world in less than 150 pages. In Murder by Memory we‘re on a ship traveling through space for a thousand year journey. They have a library which contains every person‘s memory that are re-added every time their body falls apart. Like any society, there is death and murder. A detective is woken from her chosen sleep to solve the newest murder isn‘t a murder.
The trailer for Murderbot has me intrigued. So I'm giving the first book in the series a try.
(this is a followup story to the tagged book)
And I'm done for April!

I've been struggling for ages to find a cover match for Where the Drowned Girls Go, and I reckon this works! Colour, ocean theming, portal in the middle, etc. @TheAromaOfBooks #Bookchain2025
This entire Teacup Magic series is so enjoyable! It is set in a Regency-ish but more LBGTQIA+ friendly set of islands. >>

This was a nice little filler that takes place between “The Mystery Guest” and “The Maid‘s Secret”. It was nice to see these characters and the hotel around the holidays, and my only real complaint was the amount of times Juan Manuel‘s “bare/smooth chest” is mentioned.
pickA very short volume that challenges our perceptions of those we think of as “the good side” in World War II. The nameless narrator is fighting alongside Dutch partisans and others when he leaves the unit and ends up at a large empty house. He settles in and German troops arrive to billet there. Eventually they leave and the unit he was with returns and the novel descends into a climax of violence. (Cont‘d in comments.)
A bit ridiculous to post March wrap up most of the way through April but end of March/beginning of April was busy busy. I've been working through the nebula nominees, so I also read the short stories and novelettes in March but not counting those in my stats.
pickMy first SFF cozy murder mystery and it‘s a swift moving series opener featuring Dorothy Gentleman as a retired ship detective who finds herself abruptly returned to duty and a body (not hers) after an electrical storm causes damages to some memory books.
Looking forward to further adventures!
