Hope you have a great reading month

Thank you, Michelle!

Whoa! You have the new Karin Slaughter book. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I got it from NetGalley! They’re now offering audiobooks.

Have a great reading month.Your lists are always amazing. What’s with the spoiler list?

Thanks, Laura💜 The books above the spoiler are higher priority. Those in the spoiler list are mood wannabees to pick from this month. I know it's weird logic but...

Sounds logical to me. Hope you can get to some of them.

Me, too! I’m going to try my best. This month, I listened to about three books that were 500+ pages but still kept my quantity up.

Good luck. I'm adding a couple to my "I will not commit but I want to read " list.

Thanks, Sharon! I like to think I’ve got some “freedom.”

my review

I'm still working my way through Karen Slaughter's Will Trent series. I needed to take a break. Looking forward to your thoughts on her new book.

Enjoy!

Thanks, Lauren! I got current and then she took a three-year break so I was ready to get back into it. The books are so intense.
