Been awhile since I finished a book in one sitting, but literally could not put this one down. Such a fun time for something that focuses on a grisly murder. The Violently Departed by @sarahjdaley.bsky.social www.instagram.com/abrittlebee/...

Trying something different, and I liked it! Looking at Enviromental suspense with Wolvers by Taylor Brown. See my full, spoiler-free review on IG www.instagram.com/abrittlebee/...

I have become a human petri dish, yet again 🤒🦠

finished up The Will of the Many a couple weeks ago, and I'm a bit conflicted. Was it good? Absolutely. Was it as good as the hype around had me expecting it to be? No. Solid 3/5 stars when I was expecting a show stopper ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

I prefer sleeping to eating breakfast in the morning

I review the 1st and favourite of my Jolabokaflod gifts, Whispers of December by @maisiemyersauthor.bsky.social ❄️❄️ www.instagram.com/abrittlebee/...

my little book loving heart is fluttering. Going to see @travisbaldree.bsky.social at the end of the month and Karina Halle at the beginning of December❄️❄️

things that drive me crazy: A big box bookstore moving in and crushing all the indie bookstores around it so they have to close. To then replace 75% of their stock with overpriced home goods for beige loving millennial women. I just want to get something that isn't a new release before Christmas...

In case anyone was wondering (you weren't) I went as a shark for Halloween

Once Christians tie their faith to partisan politics they eventually have to defend the indefensible. Pledge all your allegiance to Jesus Christ and let the politicians fend for themselves.
