October2025 Book#9 and last book read this month

Beautiful cover and loves the paperback edition too. Unpopular opinion. I didn‘t like much this stir. It was absurd to me🤷🏽‍♀️2.5/3⭐️

October 2025 Book #6

First book in a series. I really liked this story. It has obviously the murder, the mystery surrounding this murder, family drama, romance, secrets and our main character who is untraditional in his methods to investigate. It was a fast pace. Trying to find the hardcover editions in secondhand. I found the first 3 books 3.8/4⭐️

I like this retelling of Beauty and the Beast but love it. But I like to read retellings from my favorite fairytale. 3⭐️

October 2025 Book #4

This was so good and I don‘t think I need to talk much about this story, many persons have read it. So atmospheric, gothic, and with an attempt of a forbidden love😳I read my physical copy with the audiobook and it was fantastic. 4⭐️

October Book #3

In the past a seance was conducted and something went wrong, a real spirit was unleashed. Present day Julia accepts a job offer from a stranger to take care of an elderly woman. At her arrival, something is familiar to Julia. Mrs Sinclair is confusing her with another woman. Then, strange things happens and Julia feels that she is trapped in that house, in some way she feels knows the house and some objects seem familiar⬇️

Gissy (Cont) but how if she has never been in that house. A great secret is revealed and the novel wrntvdow. It was unrealistic for me that secret and the seance little bit dramatic. But what liked of this novel an author‘s writing style is how she create that ambience. It is like you are walking slowly, and you feel you are seeing through the eyes of the character. I will continue reading some other novels I own by this author. (edited) 2h

October 2025 Book #2

Third book in the series. This time the mystery takes place in a museum. Jewels were stolen and the mommy to transported for the exhibition was replaced by another body who seemed died recently. Who is the person they found in the sarcophagus? And when the mommy was replaced? Clara will use her background of chemistry studies to help clarify this mystery. Some confused details but in general I liked the mystery 3.5/3.8⭐️
