T. Kingfisher is one of my favorite authors, and she truly excelled with "Swordheart"! The book is filled with heart, witty banter, a respectable widow, a grumpy immortal swordsman, a gnole with an ox, and a nonbinary rat priest/lawyer!  @macmillanusa.bsky.social

Shelby is a huge fan of Adrienne Young! Enchanting. Another stunning and mysterious masterpiece by Adrienne Young. In this story where we follow James, a woman who is haunted by the recent death of her twin brother, Young’s portrayal of grief is raw and intoxicating. Full of great twists!

Sarah's bookish resolution for 2025 is to READ MORE! (Sarah is nuts) She read over 100 books last year and she's going to try and top that! She is already up to 4 books and now has a new reading tracker to help keep her on task!

Romance book club will be on Thursday the 30th @‌6:30! We have been reading Is She Really Going Out with Him and having a blast chatting all month long on discord! This month’s pick is a hilarious love story about a disillusioned divorcée who agrees to let her children play matchmaker.
