My Last, Now, and Next Reads

What is everyone reading now; do you have any recs for me?

📚

✨ Thank you so much to Wednesday Books for Rebel Witch by Kristen Ciccarelli!

I wanted to plead with the main characters: please just pass each other a note like in middle school that says ‘do you like me? (Y/N)’ 😂

✨ Thank you so much to Harlequin Trade Press / Canary Street Books for Scot and Bothered by Alexandra Kiley; this one comes out March 4th!

My husband and I are going to Scotland soon, so this is basically research. 😂 It’s our first time visiting there, so if you have any recs I’d love to hear.

✨ Thank you so much to Berkley Pub / Ace Books Pub for the copy of Broken Souls and Bones by L J Andrews; this one comes out April 29th. I love this cover!

As a book lover, finding new reads can be exciting yet overwhelming. In this article, I share my last, current, and upcoming book selections that reflect a mix of genres including fantasy and romance. If you're looking for recommendations, titles such as 'Rebel Witch' by Kristen Ciccarelli immerse you in magical realms, while 'Scot and Bothered' by Alexandra Kiley brings a unique blend of humor and adventure in a Scottish setting. With my upcoming visit to Scotland, I'm particularly thrilled to delve into stories that resonate with the culture and landscape of this beautiful country. Consider titles like 'A Darker Shade of Magic' by V.E. Schwab and 'Outlander' by Diana Gabaldon, which not only offer gripping plots but also encapsulate the essence of Scotland’s rich history. For those hunting for suggestions, check the trending genres. Fantasy books like 'Six of Crows' by Leigh Bardugo or romance novels such as 'Beach Read' by Emily Henry might catch your attention. Book recommendations can flood in from friends, book clubs, and social media platforms, so don't hesitate to ask for ideas! Whether you're seeking a good laugh or a thrilling escape, there’s a book waiting just for you.

Just finished Heartless by Elsie Silver and Corrupt book Penelope Douglas. I enjoyed both but the writing and character building in Heartless was better, IMO. Corrupt was a fun read and I am excited to read the next books!! I’m currently listening to Heir of Fire by Sarah J Maas on my drive to a
