Thriller
Book 4 in the current series from Joanna Schaffhausen. No one ever talks about this author and I am obsessed with her books.
All the Way Gone (Detective Annalisa Vega Series #4)
The latest from Alex Finlay. His books are always easy and quick to read.
Parents Weekend: A Novel by Alex Finlay, Hardcover
This is an historical sci-fi thriller and if you've read Stephen King you know his books are dense and long. But oh so worth it.
11/22/63: A Novel by Stephen King, Paperback
Not as good as Wrong Place Wrong Time but still a good time.

I really enjoy the writing in this book.

This was surprisingly good.
Night Watcher - Woolsoncroft, Daphne: Books
LGBTQ+ Romance
This was an arc I received from Netgalley.
One Honeymoon, Two Hockey Bros, Three Little Words
Book 5 in a series. Did I read the others? No. Did that lessen my reading experience? No.
Foul Ball (Espen Emperors Book 5) - Haven Hadley
This was ok. I enjoyed the concept of the book. I especially enjoyed the supermarket sweep type game.
The (Fake) Dating Game: Spicy MM Romance
This was another mid book. This is why I swear by indie authors for LGBTQ+ books.
Role Model (Game Changers #5) by Rachel Reid, Paperback
Another mid book but with trans representation. Cute story line, could have been written better.
Second Chances in New Port Stephen: A Novel
Non-Fiction
I got this as a joke to read them to my partner. Did they piss him off? Nope. But we laughed at the stupidity.
How to Piss Off Men: 109 Things to Say to Shatter the Male Ego

This is an historical fiction with 3 timelines. It was so good.
Under the Same Stars (Good Morning America Book Club Pick) by Libba Bray, ...
This book follows Jodie and 4 friends as they navigate the death of a classmate and the challenges that follow.
Barnes & Noble

I love Katherine Center books! And this was more than just a romance.
The Love Haters: A Novel by Katherine Center, Hardcover
I'm such an Ali Hazelwood fan! This made me laugh, made me tear up, and made me happy.
