I am so excited for #AuldLangSpine with @WildAlaskaBibliophile. She has sent me a list of 20 books to read. Out of the list I have read the tagged book, and Weyward. One of my goals this year is to get more books from the library, I am going to try to read from the bottom of the list to the top:

The list is in the comments.
Thank you to @monalyisha for hosting this!

Thank you @Christine this is all so amazing. I can‘t wait to read this book.

Thank you @MaleficentBookDragon for running #jolabokaflodswap again.

Did you all see that on The StoryGraph you can now pause what you are reading! This is so cool.

This was a great gothic mystery. It is set in the 1920‘s so there is a bit of tech in the story.

The mystery in this was rather interesting and to left an opening for follow up books.

I got my #jolabokaflodswap and mailed mine off. I am so excited!

I signed up for #auldlangspine2025. This looks like a blast the sign up is on @monalyisha

I loved the short stories in here. I went in blind and found out that several of my favorite authors contributed.

I learned so much from this little book. It was amazing. At 128 pages it is well worth the read. I also added three new quotes to my quote journal from this book!

This book is just fascinating.

Just look at what Lego is releasing!

A short book, with short tales of micro aggressions and how to respond to some of them. Reading this will help understand what exactly is a micro aggression.

@JessieKB thank you so much! I love my box.
@Avanders @Chrissyreadit thank you for hosting the #FFFS #Fallingforfallswap

So good. This was so good.

Changeling by Kiri Callaghan

This was an interesting world.

I almost missed it! @Avanders @Chrissyreadit Thank you again for this wonderful swap. #fffs

This was an amazing book. To be honest I almost did not read it, I had downloaded the audiobook but the narrator was not for me. The print book was much better.

I also had to google a lot of the Latin names and the print book allowed for me to get the spelling correct.

My mom made us watch all of these moves I have seen everyone on the list. My score 100/100
#3 fave songs on the list are

1. Make em Laugh
2. Swinging on a Star
3. Lose Yourself
4. Puttin on the Ritz.

I know this is 4. @dabbe

I really thought I knew who did it, I was half right.

This was like Nancy Drew for adults.

Starts out slow and confusing. It does get into a story line but I am still confused as to what is happening.

A good start to a cozy mystery. Little to no romance so I enjoyed that.

This got off to a slow start, but I loved Abatha.

Not bad for a cozy mystery. The supernatural element really had no bearing on the story.

Last night we say Amy Stewart. She was funny and the room was filled with people who love or collect trees.

In all honesty I know I read this but I cannot remember a thing about it. I had to go back and look at the book. The art work is not my style, and I forgot what the stories were about.

This was a fast mystery not mystery book. I don‘t know how else to describe it.

Mostly art but some of the stories are very thought provoking.

Ok this was creepy. It also gave off this has happened somewhere vibes.

My book club picked this and in reading this book I realized I am not a fan of political commentary. It is not old enough to be history. It is not current enough to be current. This is like reading the newspaper from two years ago. That being said the first half of this book could‘ve been a 10 page essay. The second half of the book could‘ve been 3 10 page essays. I would have liked to have been able to DNF this.

I listened to this as an audiobook. I almost did not as I do not like audiobooks with multiple narrators however, the three people that narrated this book did a really good job. I also thought this was supposed to be scary, but it was more about family, secrets, and grief.

I loved this book. A great young adult book about found family and growing up.

Robin Sloan is always so engaging. If you ever get a chance to go and see him you should.

I have loved ever book from the Singing Hoss Saga and this was just beautiful and gothic.

At page 47 I DNF this one. I loved the voce of the character and how well the story was being told. Page 47 caused me to have a panic attack so for my well being I have to stop reading this one.

This was a great mystery set in Chile. It was slow, but not a slog slow. Also maybe a taking cat.

This book was better than the podcast. It is full of mind twisting conspiracy theories, and Mandela affects.

A sweet book, with a bit of romance, magical realism and some darker off page triggers.

This book was adorable. A bit of magical realism, southern gossip, some sad bits and a happy ending.

Cute book could have done without the sex.

The magical realism was great, if it were more scary I would have liked it better. I would say this book is spooky lite.

I will never look at parking the same way again. I think the title is a bit wrong, it should be “Explains North America”.

I love a good haunted house story, unfortunately they are so hard to find. This one is good. It has hints of The Haunting of Hill House and Rebecca.

It was a November afternoon in Queens and Jie Zou was looking for a parking spot.
