Yeah, this is going to be a good book 😄

Alright I won‘t lie, I expected more based off of the Netflix show, but this book was still great. It was a slow burn classic haunting that ended in tragedy. Definitely a great spooky season read!

Well Persephone was not gone for long and her relationship with hades is blossoming. But so is the danger she and all the realms are in.

Well Persephone and hades have done the right thing, set boundaries. Plus after a confrontation with Apollo how will things progress?

And just like that Eros has gone from being one of the worst characters to one of the best. He knows Persephone‘s secret and he wants to keep her safe. All while she‘s trying to make her life decisions moving forward.

So persephone‘s crush is now her boss. And everyone is taking about the news article with her and hades. Not to mention the relationship drama between those close to her. Things are getting complicated, but isn‘t everything complicated in Olympus?

It‘s the beginning of a modern twist on the classic Greek myths. The story delves into the love between Hades and Persephone with the challenges they face along the way.

This is a story that will always tear at my heart. Jenny does a great job of showing how death and life play roles with animals but as an animal lover myself it‘s hard to imagine what some animals go through. I definitely suggest it as a read but have tissues nearby.

I couldn‘t help myself and I opened my All Hallows Read package before work. Thank you @MaleficentBookDragon I am so excited to read these books tonight! And thank you for the candy and little ghost! 👻 Happy Halloween everyone! 😄🧙🏻‍♀️#allhallowsreadswap #halloween #ahrs #ahr

A super fun Halloween read. This isn‘t the life of the vampires you know. This is a thrilling experience from start to finish where the main characters have to figure out their path and the sacrifice that comes with the one you love. Definitely a pick!

Alright this was a fun Halloween read! What started as a Halloween night of traditions and parties turns into a night of terror and loss. From families falling apart to random children showing up asking for help escaping from the Cunning Man, it‘s a thriller from page one. #spookyreads

And just like that my #allhallowsreadswap is here! 😄 I can‘t wait! #ahrs

A great vampire story perfect for spooky season! I‘ll admit the first part it‘s difficult to keep track of all the new characters but as the story goes on and gets darker it‘s easy to see how each met their end in ‘Salem‘s Lot.

My box is out for the #allhallowsreadswap 😄👻🎃☠️Thanks again for hosting @MaleficentBookDragon

This book has been my favorite for years and it‘s one that I always come back to, but it was such a new experience having the artwork to go with the story. It made everything that much more heart wrenching and touching and just brought the story one step further 10 out of 10 would recommend. 😄

This was definitely a fun read. Sally is now married to Jack and they‘re simply meant to be… until being queen catches up to Sally. While running from this new life she finds a new hidden town door. What secrets does this door hold? For Sally it‘s everything. This was a cute first read of October and definitely recommended! #halloweenreads

What a great way to look at how we communicate within our relationships. This book is insightful and gives you a look at how simple words can change the entirety of a statement. Definitely a great read for anyone in a relationship!

This was a challenging read about complex trauma. How the author demonstrates her trauma into her teachings and education into her past life is inspiring and interesting. Not everyone with trauma shares the same experiences so having a new perspective is greatly beneficial!

Alright this was a great optimistic view of the future of our world. Want to know the only problem? We need money and cooperation. Two of the hardest things to find with human kind. If someone has the money to back something they want the glory. If someone has the knowledge they might lack the resources to get it done. Together the possibilities are endless and abundant.

This was a really thoughtful series by Marie Lu. The characters are complex and diverse and by the end of the series there are no heros and villains. It‘s a fitting ending for a tortured queen who loves her family and sister dearly. What a great story 😄 #youngelites

This book was definitely a rollercoaster. You love the main character who in this case is the villain, but you also don‘t always think of her as the villain due to her circumstances. However if we went to the Daggers POV then you‘d see her as the villain who developed from a friend. It‘s a great story but slow at points, can‘t wait for the conclusion.

This was a twisting thriller of a book that had me hooked from the first page. Now I‘ll be blunt, the main character is a bit quirky so it can be hard to follow her train of thought. But beyond that it‘s a great read that keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the very end! #mysterybook #thriller #debutnovel

Anyone else excited for fall and Halloween reading? 😅🎃👻💀☠️ #halloween #monster #vampire #fallreading

Well well well… H.D. Carlton has done it again. This was a great story into the life of a character we just knew from letters. We met other groups, saw into the lives of survivors, and into the world of these characters like never before. The epilogue is fulfilling and bring together everyone in one place which makes my little reader hear happy 😊 well I have no idea what to go do now after this series 😅

Wow, booktok was not joking about part 1. This was a rollercoaster of a book and quite the way to end the series. I enjoyed the return of past characters and seeing how the characters learned and grow through their challenges and emotions. This series is dark, but I‘ve enjoyed it!

Well now I don‘t know what to do until Volume 34. Volume 33 brought the adventure of Baldroy to an end and now we shift to Finny and Snake and their mission at the FOL Orphanage. With the arrival of a surprise character it‘s going to be interesting to see how their mission goes and if they reach success.

Alright, this book did not disappoint. It was interesting to read the other side of Satan‘s Affair and see both sides of the characters, their thoughts, and how they became the people they are. I‘m excited for the next book as I think it‘s going to add more action and intrigue in!

This was a hell of a ride from start to finish. With a twist you don‘t see coming this short read keeps you entertained and on the edge of your seat from page one. If you need me I‘ll be jumping into Haunting Adeline now 😅

Well my husband was a bit concerned when I pulled this one out 😂 what a fantastic read on some of the most prolific lady poisoners. While the author gives you glimmers into the lives of these women you feel as though you know it all. From their pain to pleasure as they took the lives of those around them. What a great read ❤️

Definitely a horrifying thriller.

I think this was my favorite out of the series! As the group travels back from Winterkeep they hit a terrible storm and bad luck after bad luck. But through perseverance they make it through each trouble they face. This was a wonderful story that made you not want to put the book down!

This was such a wonderful tale in the Graceling realm. To see the rise of Queen Bitterblue as she finds herself and travels to new kingdoms is amazing. I‘m excited for the next one to see how these travels impact her kingdom.

Out of the Graceling series this was the one that I felt was so out of place. I did have the opportunity to read Bitterblue before Fire and honestly I‘m glad I did. If I read the books in publication order I would be so confused. It‘s interesting to see the other world not so far away but it sounds like it should be its our series, not tied to the story we know. It was a great adventure though!

This was a book full of twists and turns. My stomach was in knots at the end trying to figure out how Cashore was going to bring the readers any peace. Bitterblue has been a loveable character since Graceling and you get to see her growing into her role as queen and trying to solve the mysteries of her father‘s reign. Be prepared for a lot of mystery and intrigue as you go through the queen‘s reign.

This was a great read that I‘m sad I held onto for such a long time. From the world building to the character development it was a great tale of love, friendship, trust, and politics. The introduction of a Grace was such an interesting idea that always made the reader think twice about if someone was a friend of foe. Great read!

This is a super cool tale involving themes of Peter Pan. There are many twists and turns that the story takes you on it makes the book go by very fast. It was a truly enjoyable story with lovable characters.

It‘s so interesting to read how Ansel came up with his recipes and how he looks at the world through the eyes of a baker. It‘s intense to see some of the advanced recipes take 3 pages of prep, baking, and assembly over many days. However you cannot rush perfection. It gives you time to learn and grow as a baker and get the difficult techniques down. I cannot wait to start baking!

This is such a wonderful book to have in my back pocket. Whenever I need a place to turn to about small spells I just have to pull out my phone. The author is relatable and really loves sharing her experiences. This was an interesting and helpful read!

Was a heartwarming tale from The Golden Girls. Sometimes in tough situations you just need a Sophia to tell you it‘s going to be okay. Or a good old St. Olaf story from Rose. This is a great coffee table book about living life to the fullest while still being smart about it.

This is one of the coolest mysteries I have ever read. Aiden Bishop has one job, find out who murdered Evelyn Hardcastle. But solving this puzzle will not be easy. He has eight host that he must journey through and use their personalities to his advantage. And he only has one name on his mind, Anna. Who is Anna? Who is Aiden? And who killed Evelyn Hardcastle? Only time will tell.

This was such a cute and heartwarming Christmas book! Kara is a vet tech who with the help of her best friend opened a cat cafe and prays to open a low cost veterinary clinic one day. Ben is a marking specialist who‘s good deed turned into a whirlwind romance and a new friendship with a feisty kitten. From cute cats to romance this is the Christmas book for you! 🐈‍⬛

This is my favorite Christmas movie and one of my favorite books. It‘s my second read through and boy am I happy I read it again. When I was younger I was dissatisfied with the story but as I read it this time I realized the magic was beyond Christmas and not all neighbors are perfect. It‘s going to become a tradition to read this yearly and watch the movie 😁

What a wonderful way to start of the Christmas season of reading than with An Angels Story. This is a short tale of the birth of Christ from an angels perspective. It‘s a great reminder of the season of Christmas and a very short story to get you in the holiday mood!

I‘m grateful for the Hunger Games. Honestly this is always my favorite book and my favorite series. I will never get tired of opening up to that first line and diving into the story again. From my first to my third read it‘s comforting and a story that holds great meaning in my life. So I‘ll always be grateful for the series 😄 @BookmarkTavern - thanks for putting this together! #sundayfunday

I want to shout out @TheQuietQuill for picking some amazing reads for the All Hallows Read Swap. Rosemary‘s baby was an enjoyable spooky read and Welcome to Dahmerville was a new book that will become a classic! Thank you so much! 😄

Omg thank you @TheQuietQuill I was so excited to get these books and really wanted to read them both! Thank you so much! 😄 I have a full nights reading before me! @MaleficentBookDragon #allhallowsreadswap #bookswap

Cute book to read around Halloween and get a mental thrill from Christie‘s detective story. If you enjoy tracing through the wires and theories of detective stories then this is the book for you as always in the Hercule Pirot mystery books.

I love Stephen King, but this one was a bit rough for me. He had me hooked in the beginning and the middle… then it dwindled to this mediocre long winded time of boredom. Which I understand it was setting up for the big finale. But it was drawn out more than it probably should have been. Still a great book I‘m happy to have on my shelf!
