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

This book ended differently than his other books. It was sadder and yet more inspiring. The female who became a spy was courageous and brave. I liked the book and would recommend it.

I enjoyed reading this. So far I have read all 15 other books in this series and this one was good. Not my favorite but I liked it and I hope that there is another one after this one.

This had a twist I was not expecting at all! I loved how this deviated a bit from Sager’s normal vibe.

Wicked and delightful! Excited to read more by this author . The story came full circle and without less ends

I loved how they made cupcakes that they liked best. I love cupcakes.

I chose this book as part of the 2024 reading challenge for July, a book by an author born outside the Unites States, and it was also in the "New Fiction" area which I always peruse. This was an excellent read by the author who lives in Japan and who had this work translated. The chapters of the book were tales of life stories with life lessons and interconnections told in a very interesting, unique, and moving way. Every tale had a central figure, Mrs. Komachi. She was the local community center librarian with a penchant for felting and selecting just the right book for her patrons. Mrs. Komachi's felting materials were kept in a Honeydome cookie tin which was central to the book. I could continue to write more about how I liked this book, but suffice to say, it really made me think and reflect, and I will be looking for more books by this author if translated!

A fun, light romance. It was a cute read. A few moments that kind of took me out of the storyline, but overall I enjoyed it for what it is.

Very fun and engaging. Great facts about underwater creatures to learn as well

Quirky characters fill this unique story about four half siblings who go in search of their father—who disappeared from each of their individual families to start his life over. Offbeat and funny, sometimes poignant, and entertaining throughout.
