4✨ A nice short read. Poems about different mainly plants and animals. I listened to the audio and it paired the poems with nature sounds. Great read to relax and enjoy nature even when you can‘t be there. #Naturalitsy @AllDebooks

Anne of Ingleside | L.M. Montgomery

3✨ Not a favorite in the series, but still gave me the feels. Anne is seen more of an overworked mother in this story, and her husband is tirelessly taking care of the community. Anne feels a bit lonely because he is out at all hours helping people. However, the book goes through a lot more of her kids different needs and worries that Anne is there to help them navigate. #SeriesLove First book of the year!

Sorry guys. I didn‘t like this one. 😬 I actually had a decent reading year. Some of these books were added because they weren‘t horrible, but weren‘t for me, or were paired with really amazing reads. @Littlewolf1

3✨ In this mystery Nancy seemed a little bit more alone. Especially, in the heat of the moment scary bits! She was looking for a poisonous doll and for a missing father. Really liked the ending on this one. I liked how it was more believable than some of the other mysteries too. #NancyDrewBR @Librarybelle

3✨ I enjoyed the enemies to lovers, human/dragon relationship, and the slow burn (funny because one‘s a dragon 🤣). There was a lot that was happening in a world I was trying to learn, and there is a cliffhanger. I‘m not sure what I‘m feeling because it feels unfinished, but I did enjoy the ride. 🥰

4✨ I was intrigued by a Christmas thriller. It did not disappoint. It had me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. It started with quite a few characters because not all of them would survive if any plus what is happening to them has happened before.

Well, not perfect. I have a lot of organizing still to do, but holiday prepping happened. I got all but Santa‘s gifts and the stockings done for my kiddos and it took me all day on top of laundry and dishes that also feel unending. It just nice to burn my gingerbread candle and sit for a bit to read the tagged before company the next two days.

4✨ I was looking for a spooky Christmas read and this did not disappoint! Looking for any form of work in her chosen field she doesn‘t think twice when the man who wouldn‘t hire her dies and his son takes over. Then there is a creepy doll she gets from a company secret Santa exchange? Plus… people keep getting hurt and disappear. I mean red flags for sure, but let‘s keep working for them why not. #FableBR

4✨ How cute is this story! It starts off with a kid getting bullied and a young girl, her peer, not doing much about it. However, they go into this magical store to find that good deed‘s gain them points that they can use to get magical gadgets, they also bring their friends along to help them, help Santa. Something I will need to get on my shelves for my kiddos to read since I read this through my library. #FableBR

3✨ This was a fun Christmas mystery! We have a well known mystery writer, her family, and really smart detective type people in one house for the holidays. When the writer goes missing it‘s up to the mystery solvers to find out what happened. The romance in it was fun too. I really liked the dialogue between the two MCs where I laughed out loud a few times.

2✨ This is not my favorite in the series. I had trouble keeping the characters straight because she is an assassin looking for her brother. Going undercover she has a different name, a real name, and a code name. Normally I like an enemies to lovers, but this time I just couldn‘t get into their romance. I still like a strong female lead, and the unique storyline.

DNF- I was still at the beginning when I stopped. I liked the idea of this, but the female lead was not very interesting and the male lead pretty much watched her grow up. It gave me ick vibes so I‘m getting it off my shelves.

A thoughtful student got me this festive cricket as a gift (I really like insects 😅). Plus I was reading the tagged when students didn‘t need me in classes they were content with their grade and I didn‘t have F‘s (my best and AP classes). I‘m glad that semester is over. Time to finish cleaning my library and rest.

3✨ There was quite a bit of history we went through in this one, as well as a lot of politics. The connection to the diary at the coronation was such a cute touch. I also like that there was more clarification in were Poppy came from and why certain things are happening. So… how many times are we going to switch up who her mother and father are? Cause… I can‘t keep up. 😅

5✨ This was a cute story! I loved the magical whimsy of this town. The great aunt was a fun character, and the names of these characters I laughed probably too loudly at (Cole Black for the grumpy character 🤣). The spice was uncomfortable, but I didn‘t care because there were elements of dealing with rejection and grief. This I felt the characters navigated and supported each other in such a beautiful way. #HTBookClub

melissajayne I finished it the other day and I agree with the level of spice: it was a bit too much. 1w

5✨ This story was so cute. I loved their back and forth letters, and the diary sections. 🤣Such a sweet story. Now I‘m hoping there is or will be a werewolf sequel. 🥰

Roary47 @willaful Next series would be fun though if their was a messy guy that sheds a lot, and a girl with allergies. Or vise versa. 🤣 2w

Oh, if you want a werewolf story, Fan Servie by Rosie Danan was pretty fun.

DNF- I‘m sorry the first five chapters with fear, rape, killing, and forcing women to be striped were a bit much. The the cruelty in which they treated most of the women, except Cynthia was hard to read, and then the death of so many of their men and their family was depressing. The next five chapter is getting the chapter 10 I was having trouble focusing. Maybe someone else will enjoy this one.

5✨ This is one of those books that you want to say why you love it, but you would spoil the best parts by doing so. Our MC is a ghost writer and she can also see ghosts. Her parents own a funeral home, and life seems to be falling apart for her love life. When an event brings her home she finds herself helping a ghost who also is helping her. #HTBookClub
