I'm planning on reading How to Solve Your Own Murder by Kristin Perrin

Would a paperback edition of a book already published count. As I have a book I plan to buy when it’s published in paper back next year

As we say, "your challenge, your rules", so it counts if you want it to!

I have planned to read The Great Divide by Cristina Henríquez.

Anna O by Matthew Blake

Will grab up Murder Road in March by Simone St. James

Going with The Jinn Daughter by Rania Hanna



middle eastern folklore and legend mixed with magical realism and features a storytelling jinn whose job is to tell the stories of the dead

I have already read Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherworld and it was excellent. It definitely did not suffer second book syndrome and I recommend it for anyone that enjoys the cozy fantasy reads.

I’m planning on reading Somewhere beyond the sea by T.J Klune or Sunbringer by Hannah Kaner.

The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians: True Stories of the Magic of Reading by James Patterson and Matt Eversmann

My book choice is Funny Story by Emily Henry

On the Bright Side by Anna Sortino coming out July 2. YA book

The fury by Alex michaelides because I loved the silent patient so much

I will be reading The Other Valley by Scott Alexander Howard
Published 2/27/2024

I've already pre-ordered the fifth book in Catherine Cowles' Lost & Found series. I read the first four in December, and I'm ready for the brother who is a single dad to find love.

Emily Wilde’s map of the otherlands by Heather Fawcett

Echoing Inger, I'm excited to continue the Emily Wilde series with this prompt!

I read a book review in the Atlantic for a book being released this month called Forgottenness by a Ukrainian author named Tanja Maljartschuk (translation by ZeniaTompkins) that sounds so good, I've already preordered it.

"The Summer Swap" by Sarah Morgan wil be available in May 2024.

Kind of tricky. Nicholas Sparks has a new book being released in September. Kathleen Glasgow has a new book being released in November.

I read The Trouble with You by Ellen Feldman which will be published this February. It would also work for a grieving character.

I just got an advance copy of Convergence Problems by Wole Talabi from Netgalley and will read it for this prompt.

“Fragile Designs” by Colleen Coble. She is a prolific writer who writes Christian mystery novels. This has a great twist at the end.

I have been looking forward to the release of The Women by Kristin Hannah (born in 1960, a leap year - in case you’re doing the February mini challenge) for several months, so I dove in as soon as it was released. As a female in the military, this book made me feel seen and I think it’s an important look at a time in our history that left many people feeling disillusioned and outcast.

I'm planning to read The Examiner by Janice Hallett. It won't be out until September, but I love her books so it's worth the wait

I'm looking forward to reading Brittney Griner's Coming Home, hearing her story about her time in a Russian prison.

The Invisible Man and His Soon-to-Be Wife Vol. 3 by Iwatobineko
4/5
Great, now I have to wait for Vol. 4.

The Fury. And didn’t like it at all

MateHub: Legend

I'm going to count a book I just read whose audiobook just came out in 2024. That's ok, right?

I read I Hope This Doesn't Find You by Ann Liang. I liked it. I think this ending was less abrupt than her other novel This Time It's Real - however I just felt like it needed a bit more to wrap things up. Overall though a very enjoyable book.

For this prompt I've read The Curse of Penryth Hall by Jess Armstrong Jess Armstrong -

This is her debut, and is first in a series - a great mystery!

My choice: JUST FOR THE SUMMER by Abby Jimenez

I’m reading When the World Goes Quiet by Gian Sardar
