January continued to be a slow reading month for me, so a short post.
Books
Ilona Andrews’ Magic Tides (Kate Daniels: Wilmington Years #1)
Anything that makes me cackle out loud is a good thing.
Melissa Caruso’s The Ivory Tomb (Rooks and Ruin #3)
while the first book is by far my favorite, kudos for sticking the ending
Adriana Herrera’s A Caribbean Heiress in Paris (Las Leonas #1)
By far the best thing I read in January. A heroine who has a flask strapped to one thigh and a pistol on the other, a hero who takes contraceptives, one of the best safer sex conversations I’ve read in the genre, and some sex scenes that had me raising my eyebrows in the best way. Get into the future of historical romance y’all.
Re-read: Jeffe Kennedy’s Pages of the Mind (The Uncharted Realms #1)
Honorable mention:
Music: Lizzo’s Live in Concert
Yes, I am still listening to this on repeat.
Podcast: Within the Wires S7
A joyous season (a rarity in this series) with a hopeful ending, told through a world wide scavenger hunt. Patreon here. Transcripts available.
