My first vacation read! #vacationreads

Absolutely adorable! #cozyfantasy

Perfect Saturday in December vibes

The best kind of impulse buy!

I loved the themes of choice and opportunity, memory, guilt and accountability. How do our choices impact others, and what is the cost to ourselves?

Picking up an older one from my tbr.

#tbr

She has no opinion on the book but I really like the direction this series is going in. Definitely glad I kept on with the series.

Starting to be a real Scalzi fan.

We‘ll I‘m excited to start this but apparently my dog isn‘t as enthused 😂

This book was an absolute blast! Totally recommend it.

Happiness is growth in peace

Series can lag in the fourth book, but this book was better than the last. Looking forward to the next one.

1. Peach iced tea or a gin and tonic

2. Outside if the Canadian weather cooperates 😊😂

And anyone can play 😊

Interesting world building with an Aztec twist.

#urbanfantasy

A fun read with a compelling hero. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

#summerhorror #urbanfantasy

Excellent and should be required reading for every Canadian.

Vacation reading 😊

The werewolves are more believable than the heroine. So sunshiny that a roofieing and attempted gang rape isn‘t enough to dim her shine, but it let him be a hero and show what a great guy he is so 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Okay classy fiction or mystery for my vacation reading or this? #coverart #this

Counting the minutes until I start my vacation. Can‘t wait to start this mystery. It‘s using the same premise as And Then There Were None.

Yeah I‘m not so sure how Victorian style porn comes across on audiobook and the cat and mouse tension of the first book is not coming across in this one. 😐

Can‘t wait for my workday to be done!

Been a long while since I posted. Glad to be back. 🌸

Thought provoking and, oddly, calming me by calling to our shared non-consumable humanity.

Gripping. If you like John Wick then this is a winner.

Great start for a lazy summer evening.

Second in the series and better than the first. Loved every minute of it!

#scifi #allthebookspodcast

So excited to start this series! She‘s my fav from the books. 😊

#comicbook #geeklove #magicalrealism #urbanfantasy

Interesting and reasonably written, with an protagonist that isn‘t so much whiny but as chronically indecisive, and rather annoyingly expecting certainty from everyone else.

#scifi

New audiobook...the main complaint seems to be that the protagonist is whiny but that isn‘t coming across as strongly in the audio version.

Sometimes a book hits you at the right moment. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love nerding out on culinary history.

Excellent. Moving and beautiful.

Not really for the home cook...

I loved this book. Warm, loving and honest. She‘s privileged no doubt but extends it in warm spiritual hospitality. I felt like I was sitting at that table with her.

Beautiful and heart stoppingly good.

#recommendedread #shortread

First half is very good but it lost steam about 2/3 of the way through. Meh.

#novel #canlit

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantasy and tragedy mix with a sense of place so strong it‘s another character. Have to say I didn‘t love the very flawed protagonist but then you‘re not supposed to.

⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

#fantasy #paperbook #librarylove

New start this weekend. Returning to paper after a stream of audiobooks. Feels good.

#fantasy #booklove

The best book I‘ve read in years, unflinching and gut wrenching. It covers sexual abuse, hope, the terror of love walking in the world, the violence that we transfer to those we love the most and sheer agony of surviving and trying to thrive in a white world that is bent on your destruction. You can pick a word or theme and follow that thread, reread and do it again and again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

3 minutes in. This starts strong!

Finished! Excellent narration as always, and pure Three Pines escapism.

#audiobooklove #mystery

My red cabbage, apple and ginger sauerkraut recipe, loosely based on the Food In Jars website which is my usual go to. I‘m really excited for this Noma book and some new recipes!

I thought dreamed up this book. But it‘s real and has stuck with me for 25ish years. I really liked the combo of feminist commentary and chronicle of the tween books from the 80‘s and I can‘t believe how many of them I read 😂. The angst, the agony!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#nonfiction #ya #feministread

An interesting murder mystery set space with underlying themes of revenge, humanity and the value of a human life.

⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

#scifi #audiobook

I liked the structure - small essays in each language. This book is funny, interesting and informative and I liked dipping in and out instead of reading each essay one after the other.

I love this series. My absolute favourite of the year. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great short story collection. Can‘t help but love the sociopath protagonist. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
