What is the last book you read, and how much did you rate it?
'When We Were Real' by Daryl Gregory. I gave this book 5 stars. Not usually handing out 5's but this one struck a note with me.
Slow Slide into the Truth: A Therapist's Tale by Kim St Clair. 3 stars.
I read The Midnight Library, I rated it 2,5 stars. I liked the idea, but the writing and worldbuilding was boring.
I read The Unmaking of June Farrow by Adrienne Young. It was an amazing read. I loved the plot. It was very engaging with just the perfect pace.
No Red Lines
4 stars

Anxious People by Fredrick Backman ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Trauma and the Sould by Donald Kalsched -- definitely 5 stars. It's an important, ground-breaking book for understanding current psychological research into trauma and human development. The book's contribution to the field of psychoanalytics and also the human race cannot be stated enough.
When Stars Align by Melissa De La Cruz, I rated it 5 stars!
Just finished Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors, I rated it a 4.5 stars!!

The Gun Seller by Hugh Laurie (yes that Hugh Laurie)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The One by Kiera Cass. Rated it 4.5 out of 5
I just posted the review😄. It was an e-ARC of My wife,the serial killer by H.J.Garbett
The Lost Sisters - Holly Black 2⭐ sorry guys, I LOVE the folk of the air triology, but this was so pointless
I just finished
My Name Is Emilia del Valle by Isabel Allende and it was excellent, but a difficult read on the Chile Civil War. If you enjoyed The Women by Kristin Hannah, this is similar, but better. Here is my 5 Star 🌟 Review if anyone is interested:

The Woman in Cabin 10. I skipped whole chapters, googled most of the plot and read the last three chapters. I did not like the main character at all. I think I gave it 2 ⭐️ but it should have been one.
The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones -⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mine was last year but was So good I recommend it to everyone. New Year Island by Paul Draker. His first novel.
Caraval and i rated it 5 stars because i absolutely loved it 😭😭
I read when tomorrow starts without you. I rated 5/5.
The last book I read was Whispers of the Shape of Love.It’s a collection of short love stories, each carrying its own emotional weight and a strong moral. I didn’t expect every story to move me the way they did—some left me quietly reflecting, others gave me a lump in the throat.
If you enjoy reads that are poetic, gentle, and speak volumes in just a few pages, this one’s a beautiful pick. I’d give it a 5-star for how it captures the shape of love in all its forms—spoken, unspoken, and everything in between.
An Arabic book called "Unmasking the Monkey" by an Egyptian writer named Sherine Hanaei, and I rate it three and a half stars.
The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones 4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just read "Witchcraft for Wayward Girls" in January. It was extremely difficult to put down. I read it in 2 evening sessions. I also gave it a 5! Fascinating reading.
I think I'm on a trend of reading books about wayward girls / women and lost / abandoned children.
