It’s no secret I wasn’t a huge fan of The Maid when I read it back in 2021. But when offered to read the second installment in the Molly the Maid series, I decided to give it a chance. I won’t say it blew my socks off, but I did seem to like it slightly…
November 2023 Book of the Month
Two months left in the year and Book of the Month is putting out a ton of books for November. 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 I tend to focus on reading more than just 1 non-fiction book, so…

Starling House
Starling House was one of my most anticipated fall releases and it is a perfect fall/spooky season read. I listened to this audio and while I found the narrator to be great- I didn’t end up loving this story. While the storyline was interesting, I spent the first few pages of this book confusing it…

Another weird, page turning novel from Rachel Harrison. Her books, while usually labeled horror tend to be campier in nature than truly scary.

Here we are, once again, almost halfway through another month. Even though there are 5 Tuesdays in November, I always find November to have the least new releases out of all the months. I normally use November to get ‘caught up’ on my TBR but this year I was pleasantly surprised by how many new…
