I read two romances in a row, so I'm switching gears and starting this thriller.

I just worked six days in a row and I'm glad to have the next two days off. They will include reading this book.
Eight books read in April. Overall a good reading month for me.
Weekend is almost over.😔
I haven't read a romance in April yet, so I decided to change that with this book. #currentlyreading
The trailer for Murderbot has me intrigued. So I'm giving the first book in the series a try.
Two pre-orders arrived from Barnes and Noble.😍 #bookmail
My FairyLoot edition of the new Olivie Blake is here! I've been excited to read this book and since I finished my last book last night, I'm starting this one now.
I started this book last night. It's really good! Read longer than I should have.🥱
I finished my most recent book last night and my April Book of the Months showed up today, so I decided I will dig right in and start this book.

My co-worker who normally covers our books is gone on vacation this week, so I'm covering the books I cataloged. Discovered this under the cover of Gifted & Talented.😁
I ended up picking 5 books between April's Book of the Month and Aardvark. 😍

March was a good reading month for me. I finished 8 books. My favorite was Reformatory for sure.
It's the first day of my "weekend" after working the last 7 days. I'm looking forward to some major couch and book time. Starting with this fantasy.
One of the perks of working in a library is getting my name on hold for a book early. But also, not surprising, the holds are growing behind me, so I'm reading it immediately. Halfway through and this books is devastating.
My copy of Everything is Tuberculosis is here! I ordered the signed edition.
Starting The Reformatory today. See what all the praise is about.😁
I chose two books for March's #aardvarkbookclub.
You Are Fatally Invited by Ande Pliego
Back After This by Linda Holmes
My February combo adult fantasy and romantasy box from FairyLoot finally arrived today. The tagged is the adult fantasy and the romantasy is Iron & Embers by Helen Scheuerer.
The "feels like" temperature is currently -29° so I'm glad the library is closed for Presidents' Day and I can just hang out at home. I'm starting this fantasy today.
Current read. About 40 pages in and loving the characters already.
My February Book of the Month books arrived. The orange/red/yellow theme is just a coincidence!

I finished 7 books in January. I usually only read a couple non-fiction a year, so I've already hit my quota! Just kidding, I don't know if I'll keep it up, but I already have another non-fiction checked out from the library that I want to read.
All my January special edition books showed up today. It's a very blue month.
I got:
FairyLoot adult fantasy - Immortal by Sue Lynn Tan
FairyLoot romantasy - The Starlight Heir
Owlcrate adult fantasy - Water Moon by Samantha Sotto Yambao
Since I worked yesterday, today is the first day of my three day weekend. The plan is to stay in as much as possible because it is ridiculously cold outside. The current 'feel like' temp here is -27°. And tomorrow is supposed to be even colder?.
I'm also starting another non-fiction. This time it's Brooke Shields' new book.
I'm a Saturday Librarian today. This morning I'm working on adding these books to the library's collection.
We do not have any copies of Onyx Storm yet, but I see one shipped out to us from Ingram last night. We probably won't get it by Tuesday's pub date, but a day late isn't too bad.
Wednesday's are my evening shift at the library. I'm home now, supper is eaten and Peri is walked. Now I can relax and start The Favorites. ⛸️
Got my #aardvarkbookclub box. The hardcover The Reformatory book is gorgeous. It came with the original cover, but I'm going to shelve it without it. Too pretty not to.
After reading Fourth Wing, I didn't read Iron Flame right away, and it finally got to the point where I decided to wait until closer to Onyx Storm coming out. Well that's now this month! So I'm starting Iron Flame today.
My January #botm are here already! I'm really excited for all four books. In fact, I'm probably going to have a hard time picking which one to read first. And I got my hammer for finishing the 2024 reading challenge. It's heavy!
My mini calendar at work for 2025 is The Reading Woman. Each month features art with a woman and a book. January's painting is Thinking by Kajita Hanko.
It's past Christmas, but I really don't want to wait until next December to read this book, so I'm doing it now.🎄😉
so-soThis was a very OK book for me. I like the author's writing style, but the story just wasn't fully grabbing my attention after a 1/4 in. It even featured a really unique magic system. I honestly had high hopes for this first read of 2025, so a little disappointed.
My reading challenges are all set in goodreads and StoryGraph. I took @ChaoticMissAdventures suggestion and added a pages goal since I'm hoping to read fewer, but longer books. Also looks like goodreads has added some fun monthly and community favorites challenges.
Phew! January Aardvark Book Club books are live. I was able to snag a signed copy of Reformatory. I'm excited to read it. And I also picked the new Megan Collins.
