This is excellent. This author is fierce. I finished a few days ago. Definitely recommend.

There is no proof that I didn't need this book.

I obviously needed to see a second ballet this month. 😂

This sucked me right in. Like Fourth Wing level of not being able to stop. I have no idea why it took so long for this to catch on but it seems like people are starting to figure it out.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This book is sort of light on plot but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I loved the characters and it's very funny. Read for June #bookclub.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This was very interesting and well written. The author must have done an absurd amount of research.

This was a post-apocalyptic climate dystopia. For middle grade supposedly. But I'd argue for YA. It's entertaining. I'll never remember anything about it in a couple of months.

This just wasn't for me. It's cute but these girls are naive and I don't know why they thought a book needed to happen. The only thing that made this ok imo was all the extra info that went into the group chat. And the cover. 😂

This one is truly lovely. She might be my new Valerie Perrin back up author. I have no idea if these are being translated into English. Yet. They definitely should be.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is good if you're interested in this topic. The author came to one of my social groups. She's lovely.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is a cute cozy mystery fantasy thing. It gave me Charmaine Harris vibes. I don't typically read in this genre. I think it must be a reprint of the author's original books.

This one was a slow start for me because I don't have children. Or want them. But it's really well written even if I struggled to relate at the beginning.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is more fantasy than I am used to from this author but the traditional culture and belief system are on brand for sure. I enjoyed this immensely.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is one of those books where a pack of siblings all seem to reach a crisis mode at the same time and then they all sort of unravel together and take the parents down with them. This one starts off with the mother's death. Low pick.

#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks

This book is very odd but that's on brand for this author. Klimt, Schiele and Dr Frankenstein are all characters. I love books about painting and you never know what you're getting into with this dude. Reading this in Vienna was an extra bonus.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This author is highly entertaining. I will read anything she's willing to put out into the world. Her author photos alone are epic.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is cute. There are a lot of these types of books now but I believe this was one of the first. I don't know if I'm just over this genre but I do not feel compelled to read the rest of the series.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I'm behind on posting. Finished this for #AuthorAMonth over a week ago. It was quite good. The author pulls together a broad mix of themes centered around DC in the 1950s.

@Soubhiville

This was boring. Maybe the audiobook was a bad choice.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

These idiots sort of all deserve each other. Unfortunately there are murdery things happening as well. Setting is Lake Como in Italy.

This author is sort of all over the place in her genre. If you're ok with that (I am for sure) and enjoy a surprise definitely give this a go.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

I'm late posting. This author is fascinating. I do think this might be her house diary and her scandals are written down somewhere else. It makes me want to read her letters.

#SundayBuddyRead @TheBookHippie

This is a funny caper type book. I loved all the jokes. I have no idea how this made it to a prize shortlist but whatever.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This author is very thoughtful and her perspective is interesting. I mostly listened to this on audio but I had a print copy as well.

#SheSaid @Riveted_Reader_Melissa

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I want more of these. This author writes with Shakespeare rules so no telling what might happen to your favorite characters and I love that.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is fairy porn. Basically. And it's very hard to put down.

This is in Camden ME near the library. Pic is from 2016. I can't get the whole thing in the frame. Fail.

This was ok. It was entertaining. The goddess of winter is made mortal to learn some key lessons. The cover is gorgeous imo.

I kind of want this to win the Women's Prize. I do think The Safekeep is better and still have no idea why it didn't win the Booker.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This duology was quite entertaining. I know it's very popular and I liked it a lot but it didn't like blow my mind. I may need a break from the fantasy books if they're all starting to seem mediocre.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I really liked this one. I may like it better than her other book. 2 cousins grow up in separate countries and face different challenges.

#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks

This is a cute cozy fantasy. The cover and title got my attention.

These books are highly entertaining, tense and adventurous. This is the second in this part of the series.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This author has some interesting ideas. Def worth a listen. This gorgeous cover caught my attention and this was a book club pick.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I found this protagonist super annoying and probably should have given up at the halfway mark but it does get somewhat better.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is pretty creepy. I devoured it.

#Aardvark @AardvarkBookClub

#BookSpin @TheAromaofBooks

This is what you expect a booker shortlist book to be. It's well written but I already forgot the plot. Was there a plot? The mice were creepy af.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is very cute. I like this author (except for that 1 book).

Highly recommend. This is a sci-fi heist caper set on another planet.

This is book 6 in the Gunnie Rose series. They are entertaining and I will continue to read whatever this author comes up with.

This is very good. I have no idea why I'm leaning into the fantasy books so hard (escapism?). I need to slow down because they are all series and I'm going to mix them all together if I keep reading all book 1s.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I maybe didn't really love this but whatever + 🤐 discussion tomorrow.
