We’re also seeing three debuts and a handful of romance reads, just in time for Valentines! If you are still looking for something to read be sure to…

Kills Well with Others
Another fun book from Deanna Raybourn. The gang is back in this Golden Girls meets Charlie’s Angels novel. Billie, Helen, Mary Alice, and Natalie may be retired but that doesn’t mean they can’t handle their own still. When they’re recalled to take on an off the books job for organization known as The Museum, they’re…
February 2025 BOTM Predictions
January is flying by and even with February being the shortest month of the year, the list of books I’m excited for releases in February is not short. Black History Month and Valentine’s Day both fall within February, so I expect to see a solid romance pick for the holiday, and potentially a handful of…
January 2025 | Aardvark Predictions
Anyone else think 2024 just flew by? Just me? I’m not ready for it to be 2025 already! Though Aardvark is great about giving us hints each month so we know what the picks will be before they ‘go live’, I thought it would be fun to start putting together my own predictions based on…
January 2025 BOTM Predictions
The publishing world is kicking off 2025 with a bang! The sheer number of books on my TBR that release in January is ridiculous, and so many of them feel like they would make excellent BOTM picks. With so many interesting books coming out in January, I think we’ll see mostly January releases, though I…
December 2024 Book of the Month
The final books of the year have dropped from Book of the Month, and though I’m late getting my write up out, it’s better late than never! Even though I like this month’s picks, I had a hard time deciding on which ones to add to my box. In part because I have copies of…
The Most Wonderful Crime of the Year
Both Maggie Chase and Ethan Wyatt have been invited to spend Christmas with an unknown reclusive fan in the English countryside. Neither knows what to expect, & Maggie definitely didn’t expect to have to spend Christmas with her worst enemy. Even finding out said reclusive fan, is world renown and her favorite author Eleanor Ashley,…
December 2024 | BOTM Predictions
It’s the final countdown dun nununu! Or really more just my final predictions for the final BOTM box of 2024! December is always such a toss-up when it comes to BOTM picks. It is a fairly light publishing month due to the holidays and so we tend to see some very interesting choices show up…
November 2024 Book of the Month
I cannot believe we only have 2- months left in the year. We’ve been extremely busy with our newborn twins and a toddler, so I’m glad we’re getting to the slow publishing months. November is the unofficially non-fiction month of the year. Maybe non-fiction November is official, I’m not sure, but it is the month…
Aardvark August 2024
August books are up and I think we have some great options. In the vein of last month, we’re seeing a handful of Science Fiction/Fantasy reads, but we also are seeing a traditional page turning thriller and a new romance. If you are still looking for something to read be sure to check out some…
