Thistlefoot

31 May 2025

Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott is a dark, magical road trip soaked in Eastern European folklore, memory, and generational trauma. It opens with a tumbleweed. A very American symbol, but apparently an invasive Russian thistle. Who knew? Not me, apparently! Always […]

The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill

28 May 2025

I had a difficult time pressing pause on The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill by Rowenna Miller. The lives and struggles of the characters grew on me, slowly at first like the cider apples, cherries, and pears in their family-run

I knew I had to get this, one because I’m a fan of the Bobiverse books, and two because it’s a short story on time travel paradoxes, which I also love. Being free as part of my Audible subscription also

Dead Tired III picks up right where the previous books left off as Harold, the ancient and overpowered lich, continues his journey with Alex, the Limpet, the mantis sisters, and a penchant for puns that are as groan-worthy as they

I love a fun book title, so when I saw “The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches” by Sangu Mandanna, one quick skim of the blurb later and I knew I wanted to give it a try! It was a

The Rainfall Market

11 May 2025

The Rainfall Market is one of those audiobooks that sort of sneaks up on you. It starts quietly, like a gentle drizzle on a grey afternoon, and before you know it, you’re knee-deep in bottled memories, goblin-run shops, and emotional

An Irish Bookshop Murder

25 April 2025

I am trying to think a lot less about which audiobooks to buy as I have recently found myself flip-flopping on what to listen to next so much that I end up going back to something I previously enjoyed instead

I See You’ve Called in Dead

20 April 2025

I See You’ve Called in Dead is a dryly funny, oddly uplifting slice-of-life tale that hits somewhere between existential crisis and offbeat workplace comedy. It follows Bud Stanley, an obituary writer who is barely scraping by emotionally when he accidentally

Trials of the Nekomancer

29 March 2025

This was a slog to get through, and so many times I just thought about giving up. Getting to the end, I should have given up a lot sooner. I like puns, and this book is filled with them though
