pickIf a reader is going to go weird, going weird, hilarious, and emotional with TJ Klune is the best option for a great time. While the story meandered a bot towards the end, the characters were fresh and lovable and the romantic relationship a steamy slow burn. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advance copy.
pick1-20-25: My 6th finished book of 2025! Fantastic story! Told from the point of view of Camden and Jules, a married couple, and letters from Camden‘s adoptive mother, Ruby, this story is a wild ride of confessions and plot twists. Cam and Jules must go back to Asby House, where Cam grew up, to finally receive his inheritance. But he doesn‘t want it or anything to do with his adoptive family. Many secrets are hidden in Asby House. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣6️⃣
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

pickClaustrophobic gated community. Overly friendly neighbors. Creepy kids. Putrid smells. Sleep paralysis. And trees that maybe aren't only trees.
Psychological and mysterious. There are clues dropped throughout as to what's really going on - some subtle, others not so much - and when it's finally confirmed, the story wraps up pretty quickly, in a way I wasn't totally satisfied with, but I'm still glad I read the book.
pickRead this 4 book club. I haven‘t read Thursday Murder Club (TMC) series yet, but plan to on audiobook. Idk what Osman‘s style of writing is in TMC but at times here it came off as trying too hard to be funny or maybe I don‘t have the right sense of humor. It was overall enjoyable & I liked the characters enough although at times there seemed like too many. I would read the 2nd in this series, but don‘t think I‘d buy it. I‘m eager for TMC though!
pickThis was much more violent than the usual cozy mysteries we read for our work book club, but it wasn‘t bad. It‘s frigid here this weekend so good timing for reading about Greenland.
pickI enjoyed it. An older woman on YT considered it one of her favorite police procedurals, so I gave it a try. This husband and wife writing team wrote a number of these types of books. #SwedishAuthors, #Budapest. I really liked the setting. This may be the first book I‘ve ever read set in Budapest (well, most of it was set there).
It's summer in the Adirondacks
