Hey there! It’s April! Here’s what we’re reading right now:
Carrie: I’m reading Call Me Traitor by Everina Maxwell ( A | BN | K | AB ) – it is SO GOOD.
Lara: I’m reading Thistlemarsh by Moorea Corrigan. ( A | BN | K | AB ) There is a teeny tiny niche of ‘Fae’ books that I enjoy and I think this book might fall into that niche! So far the writing is just excellent. There’ll be a full review around publication date.
Elyse: I’m reading Thistlemarch too!
Amanda: I’m between books right now. My latest game board prompt is to read a fantasy or sci-fi romance, so I’m exploring my options and having some trouble nailing things down. I’ve started and stopped a couple things so far.
I’m sticking with The Lady and the Orc by Finley Fenn. Was certainly not aware there’s a breeding kink thing going on, but alas.
It gives me Radiance by Grace Draven vibes but darker. There isn’t a mutual attraction at first and there are lots of cultural miscommunications. The conflict is very circular though and I have a feeling it’s going to be a book that could have been shorter.
Sarah: “I’m sticking with the Orc” makes me think of the old bumperstickers for Piggly Wiggly that read I’m Stickin’ with the Pig. Also hi from the non sequitur department.
I’m reading The Last Lady B ( A | BN | K | AB ) and I am honestly not sure what to make of it.
Susan: I’m reading the first volume of The Fiancée Chosen By The Ring, ( A | BN | K | AB ) where the inciting incident is the love interest telling his sister he was going to yeet a ring into the crowd and marry the lady it ended up with. He then nails the protagonist right between the eyes with it.
Lara: I want to add that for the long weekend we just had, I undertook an excellent reading project: I read the Fitzhugh Trilogy by Sherry Thomas in one go. No blurbs, no pauses. It read like a family saga with all three stories intertwined and I had an absolutely marvellous time! Highly recommend!
Claudia: It’s so good…
Shana: I’m reading Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch. ( A | BN | K | G | AB )
Sarah: I love that series, so, so much. The audiobooks are narrated by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith and they are exquisite.
