Want to read a magical historical fiction novel that takes place in an alternate 1950s-60s America with dragons and a queer romance? Definitely read this one! 🐉 I had a great time reading this over the past week. Admittedly, I used it to help myself get out of a reading slump I’m in danger of falling into. But what I thought was going to be an easy read turned into a quite rewarding one too ✨ ——

I read another Silvia Moreno-Garcia novel 🥰 She’s a fantastic storyteller and has written other fiction such as Velvet Was the Night and Mexican Gothic (and both are very good). I had the pleasure of reading The Daughter of Doctor Moreau, her latest, recently. I know it’s been awhile since I’ve posted, but life has been catching up to me and it was difficult to concentrate on reading this week. I’m glad I had this book to get back into the swing of things ✨

Hope everyones had a good weekend! 😄 I finished mine by reading The Pallbearers Club by Paul Tremblay. In the past I’ve read another one of his horror thriller novels, A Head Full of Ghosts, and enjoyed it so I thought I would take a chance on his most recent release. But in the end I was not really impressed, but this book had a certain charm all the same ✨ ——

Happy Saturday! 🥳 I started mine by finishing Hokuloa Road by Elizabeth Hand. This was one I didn’t know too much about going in, but I ended up really liking this haunting island mystery! ✨ ——

I’m all moved in now and I love my little reading corner! I also can’t wait to eventually get more book shelves… (swipe to see 👌🏻). Anyways, this book was a trip! I loved the sound of the plot, but after seeing some reviews I was not sure how much I would like this one. But after reading, I definitely had fun ✨

I’ve been a little absent because I’m in the exciting process of moving! 📦 Moving is a lot of work I don’t look forward to, but happy about where I’m going next! I used some downtime to finish my latest read, Woman on Fire by Lisa Barr. I had a great time reading this book and it had a compelling art historical story, but I had higher hopes for this one... ✨
