Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 11
by Kafka Asagiri

book cover


BSD is one of my favorite series and every volume I read builds so much for the plot, characters, and relationships. The new settings brought to ex-guild and ex-port mafia members was one of the highlights.

Good middle grade read. Solid start to a series. Took a while to build up the world but then again it’s the first in a series.

Between two fires

While I loved the fresh take on knights in medieval times, I felt this book could have been shortened as it seemed to drag on. Entertaining, but there were times it was difficult to press on.

The Midnight Feast

An amazing psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat and leaves you wanting to unearth more answers to the burning questions that pop up. I audibly gasped as secrets were unfolding with every twist and turn. And like the characters in the book, I felt a sense of closure as I turned the last page. Lucy Foley is a mastermind, and this might be her best one yet!

Loved this so much! Highly recommend the audio version. The whole story, her whole life told through letters and emails. Such a rich dive into these characters that we only meet though their written words. Amazing!

Dream State
by Eric Puchner

book cover


A wedding, a group of college friends, a romance, a heartbreak, and choices that reverberate through generations. Also an ode to the state of Montana—and heartbreak for the impacts of a warming climate. (Not in a preachy way, but in a day-to-day impactful change kind of way: the lake when the characters were kids, vs. the lake now.) The pace was a little slow but I was engaged in the outcome of the characters.

The House In The Pines

book cover


I usually enjoy Reese's Book Club picks and The House in the Pines was an enjoyable book although not what I expected. The book is written in third person with the main protagonist being a young 25-year-old named, Maya. When she was eighteen, Maya dated a man named Frank and she seemed to lose significant periods of time when with him. A key event is when Maya's best friend, Aubrey, just died for no reason when having a conversation with Frank. Fast forward to 7 years later when Maya was 25 and saw a video on social media where the same Frank is in a booth at a diner in Maya's hometown of Pittsfield, MA, and the woman across from him also suddenly dies while just talking to Frank. While depicted as a thriller, the book is just about Frank's interesting ability (no spoiler alert). My favorite parts of the book dealt with Maya's Guatemalan background, her late father, and her visits to Guatemala City.
