Don't Let The Forest In by: CG Drews

Publisher: Macmillian Publication Date: October 29 2024 Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions are my own. This is another DNF. I couldn’t get through this book not matter how hard I tried. I put it down, picked it up. Put it down, picked it up. You get the picture.

The Lost Story By: Meg Shaffer

Published by: Random House Publication Date: 7/16/2024 Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for access to this eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. To start off this review: I have no idea why this was classified as women’s fiction. The woman character is, in my humble opinion, not who the story is about. She is more there to facilitate the story of the two male…

The Honey Witch by: Sydney J. Shields

Published by: Redhook Books Publication Date: 5/14/2024 First as always, thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for access to this eARC. All opinions are my own. Now, review time.

Voyage Of The Damned by: Frances White

Published by: Harlequin Publication Date: August 20 2024 Firstly, thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for access to this eARC. My opinion is my own. Alright, from the jump, I was leery of this book. Any book I’ve read in the last few years that said “Tik-Tok Sensation” or “BookTok Fave” has been absolutely awful. And this was not the exception to that. Where do I start? I didn’t even get…

In Nightfall by: Suzanne Young
