While I liked the first book in this duology more, A Curse Carved in Bone kept me captivated the whole time and had a twist I did not expect coming at all.

While the identity of the killer in this murder mystery didn’t surprise me, I enjoyed this cast of characters and would go back earlier in the series. (This was gifted to me, so I started rather in the middle of things.) I loved hanging out in Victorian London and was sufficiently pulled along with both main and side plots to cruise through the book at a relaxed pace. Made for a nice way to unwind after the day.

A Sherlock Holmes-ish mystery set in the 1920s, as a good cop teams up with a “graphologist” in a dangerous bid to expose corruption within the London police department.

I really enjoyed this one. It was interesting to read about a bookseller who has a rare book collection. I liked both of the main characters and I am going to read the next two books in the series.

Easy and engaging read. Left some questions un answered to hopefully be discovered in the books to come. Excited to see the direction of this series. I read ACOTAR, so I’m excited for this SJM series

It was fine, though not this author’s best. The characters never cohered, but the climactic moments were exciting.

I love learning new fancy words with Fancy Nancy. I also pretended that I needed glasses one time.

Interesting book, it was very fun and I learned a lot. The behind the scenes info on the process of creating and filming The Guild was very informative.

This had me going back and forth trying to guess what the ending was going to be the entire time! It kept me hooked!

This book had a lot of animals in it. It was very creative. My favorite part was when they slid on the ice like a polar Bears. I also liked that it had facts on the back about polar bears.
