October 2024 Wrap-Up
October was full of ARCs as I waited for my next edit to come in… with a few dark academia, mystery, thriller, and/or true crime reads, along with a bunch of fantasies, I definitely embraced the month’s mood.
October was full of ARCs as I waited for my next edit to come in… with a few dark academia, mystery, thriller, and/or true crime reads, along with a bunch of fantasies, I definitely embraced the month’s mood.
September saw me finishing up the copyedit for an upcoming release (Addictive Contact!), reading a few more books of a historical romance series, and getting through half a dozen ARCs. My ratings were kind of all over the place this month, though there were a few standout novels I really loved!
August was all about ARCs and historical romances, with a spattering of other genres such as a variety of fantasies and retellings, true crime, and science fiction! Can you tell I’m a mood reader?
This month was filled with ARCs, editing, and finishing up my re-read of Sarah J. Maas’ Throne of Glass series before moving on to her Crescent City series! There were a LOT of good reads this month, including Olena Nikitin’s Oath of Betrayal, Rebecca Ethington’s Crimson Stained Catalyst, and more!
We continue on with another re-read of yet another of Sarah J. Maas’ amazing series this June – Throne of Glass! Other titles read this month include Hall of Mirrors by John Copenhaver and Oath of Betrayal by Olena Nikitin.
May was full of contemporary romances, namely the Kings of Sin series by Ana Huang and the Playing for Keeps series by Becka Mack. A re-read of Sarah J. Maas’ ACOTAR series was also a feature this month, along with a couple of other books. Take a peek!
April brought us an array of worlds, from realms marked by divine trials to the ballrooms of Regency London. Among them, “Worthy of Fate” by A.N. Caudle stood out as our favorite read of the month, while “Romancing Mister Bridgerton” by Julia Quinn was a nice re-read in anticipation of Bridgerton Season 3!
In March 2024, we were treated to a fantastical array of novels across genres. Day Leitao’s “A Cursed Son” mesmerized as a romantasy, blending enemies-to-lovers intrigue with dreamy connections while Ingrid Seymour’s “House of the Raven” unfolded an epic fantasy of vengeance and twists. These offerings, among others, offered magic, love, and intrigue.
From the enchanting world of Wilderise in “The Good and the Green” to the court intrigue of “The Folk of the Air” series, each story offered its own blend of magic and mystery in this February 2024 wrap-up. What were your standout reads last month?
In this January 2024 wrap-up, a spectrum of literary experiences unfolded, earning ratings ranging from 3 to 5 stars. Rebecca Yarros’s ‘Fourth Wing’ showcased aerial prowess, while K.L. Ziggler’s ‘Of Spies and Shadows’ skillfully interwove magic into the romantasy genre. Ash Remington’s ‘Isolating Contact’ stood out as a compelling intergalactic science fiction narrative.
Our November 2023 wrap-up includes a diverse range of literature from romance novels to fantasy short stories. From the tale of an unlikely marriage proposal in “An Unlikely Match for the Governess” to the enchanting journey of a gifted pianist, Rosemary, in “Sage, Rosemary, and Time,” each story promises compelling characters and captivating plots.
From historical romance to fantastical realms, October 2023’s wrap-up spanned eras and emotions. Delight in Sarah M. Eden’s charming “The Lancaster Family” series or Jennifer Anton’s WWII saga “Under the Light of the Italian Moon.” Other diverse tales promise more excitement ahead. Happy reading!
