This gave me Margo vibes. In case you also liked that one.

I might be leaning into the horror novels pretty hard. But they're fantasy adjacent so maybe I didn't even wander off too far. This is basically what I expected from this author except it's set in a castle that's under siege.

#BookSpin @TheAromaofBooks

Perfect day for reading outside on the deck.

I really want this author to hurry up with the sequel to this. I loved it and I want more. Plus there are so many things I want to know.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

No idea what I was expecting from this but it's quite fun. From the dude that wrote Holes.

I love this author. Indigenous horror is a pretty niche sub-genre but this one is an auto-buy IMO. Anything she writes. Put it in my hands right freaking now. 😂

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I may have gotten carried away when all of the books started to appear. Like gifts for the brain.

#BookSpin #DoubleSpin #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I already read 2 of the #Aardvark books and my bestie pre-ordered a 3rd. Proof we all have excellent taste. Picked horror out of the remainder. Because Persephone retelling set in MX.

@AardvarkBookClub

This was very interesting. It goes through 500 years of history and points out things and ways we messed up the environment. It's very broad but he does a good job.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This author packs a punch in this tiny little book of short stories. Tbh I don't even remember what the middle one was about, but the others are sticking.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

#bookclub

This was really interesting from a format perspective. The moon turning to cheese for no discernible reason? That's the foolishness I have learned to expect from this author.

This is delightfully mysterious and creepy. I love this author.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is cute and exactly what I expected from this author.

Everyone loves this. It's a really good mystery and it's written well. I just wasn't into it. Low pick.

Today's beach read. #AuthorAMonth

I might be getting less enamored with this series. This was very repetitive imo.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is pretty cute. I absolutely loved her other book. This one is also entirely enjoyable.

This series is so good. I am thoroughly hooked.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is a must read. It is so interesting.

This is basically pandemic + rapture + zombies. If you liked the movie Zombieland and can stomach a really sheltered teen narrator with less jokes, this might be for you.

#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks

This is quite entertaining. A dying girl ends up inside a novel. And leans into being the villain.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is so freaking ridiculous but SO entertaining. For example, there's a talking lion and a one armed pink t-rex. This author is so extra. I would read her other series first.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This actually isn't that creepy. Despite the ghost and the possession.

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

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

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

#BookSpin #BookSpinBingo #DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks

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.

#SheSaid @Riveted_Reader_Melissa

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

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.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

#ARC #Netgalley (not new)

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. 😂

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

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.

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.
