Just completed #6 (forbidden romance) - The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. I loved this book!!!! Writing was really good, plot was connected, and characters were created well (and I loved all of them)! Sigh, I want to be a member of this crew! “There are few things as unsettling as a lack of control in an unfamiliar situation.” This is a book about good people trying their best, being kind, and loving each other through difficult things. Definitely recommend! 5 stars

Just completed #26 (shortest on tbr) - Man Called Horse: John Horse and the Black Seminole Underground Railroad by Glennette Tilley Turner. This is a lovely, easy history of the Black Seminoles and John Horse. Glossy pages and lots of pictures would make it accessible for young readers. Honestly, this history needs to be taught more! Highly recommend! 4 stars

Kindred for a book becoming a tv series or movie.

Would also work for on a celebrity book club list, about a family, or historical fiction

Just completed #22 (queer MC) - What Lies in the Woods by Kate Alice Marshall. This is a creepy, thrilling book that slowly builds. I really liked the main character; she was flawed and while I didn’t always understand her choices, that made sense in the context of her backstory. The plot kept me guessing, and while I had theories that proved to be correct, they were not sure things as we went along. Writing is good too! I received this book as a free giveaway in exchange for my honest review. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars

4/50

Just completed #1 (meant to read in 2022) - Ruin Me, If You Dare by Alyssa Clarke. Another fun, spicy entry in the Wallflowers series! The MCs were interesting, and I really liked the progression of their relationship. The exploration of love language was also refreshing in a historical romance. Worth reading! 4 stars

5/50
