Next up for #SheSaid

Our next pick is fiction this month. And there are no chapters or parts. So read when you can, enjoy the spring or fall depending on where you are. And I will see you all at the end of the month to discuss this book.

Put in your library holds & interlibrary loans…. Make sure you request in translation for your area.

Julsmarshall The wait times from my library were wild but this one is so intriguing, I didn‘t want to wait. Ebook is only $9 so an impulse buy on this rainy day off seemed like a good idea :) 3d

Hi, Shelockians~
Sorry for the confusion as to the order of these stories in this last edition. Though originally published separately, we are reading the stories in the order they were first published in the volume titled THE CASE-BOOK OF SH. Above is a pic showing the order of the final last 9 stories. Hopefully, this will keep us all reading the right story at the right time. We're almost there! 😍

A quick reminder, in June, we will be reading, or as the case may be rereading, Lover Unleashed book 9 in the series. This book is about Payne, Vishous's sister, and Manuel Manello (Manny) the human doctor. I'm sure we will get some of the other characters' stories too. Looking forward to getting back to this world.

#LittensLoveSJM I wanted to post this early. After we finish the final installment of #ACOTAR, I will be hosting the #TOG series by SJM. Most say it takes a couple books to really get into the world. I will read the prequel novellas only after the first 3 books in the series. I will read Tower of Dawn before Empire of Storms (these books happen concurrently). I‘d love for you to join me starting June 13th!
