The Maid (Molly the Maid, #1)
by: Nita Prose
"4.5
What a lovely heroine! The author gets you rooting for her from the start.
This would've been a solid five stars if not for the ending, which introduces plot points that feel out of character for our narrator, as well as feel like a juke on the reader.
But still worth it. Will definitely read more!"

Gift from the Sea
by: Anne Morrow Lindbergh
"Like poetry! So many beautiful metaphors to chew on and explore. Definitely one that needs discussing, that will sit completely differently at different stages of life. Adding it immediately to my shelf of books to re-read!"

The Tainted Cup (Shadow of the Leviathan, #1)
by: Robert Jackson Bennett
"3.5
What a crazy world! And a wild and unique detective. Our hero was easy to root for.
Overall well-written it just dragged and I got lost a bit. I think definitely read the print, don't do audio with this one, unless you can really focus."

The Book of Delights: Essays
by: Ross Gay
"I mean, is there a better description than: DELIGHTFUL! This, in combination with One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp, lifted me out of a dark place. I've started my own delight list (which is also a gratitude list in a way) and it's been transformational.
Ross Gay made me laugh out loud and kept a smile on my face throughout."

The Devil and the Dark Water
by: Stuart Turton
"This book had everything I love. A fascinating setting full of history I've never learned about, atmosphere out the butt, a sweet and subtle love story, feminist themes and an exploration of religion and superstition. Great great great! And so much humor along the way. This author has made it onto my Must Read list!"

Little Beach Street Bakery
by: Jenny Colgan
"I have beef with the fact that this cover has a cupcake on it. This book is about BREAD! And for that, it has my heart. My heart is made of bread, basically.
This was light and lovely -- a bit sappy, but just what the doctor ordered. Jenny Colgan always delivers!

Remarkably Bright Creatures
by: Shelby Van Pelt
"4.5
Between this and My Octopus Teacher, I’m obsessed with Octopi now.
I loved the concept, loved the stories. An obnoxious protagonist kept me from really raving about the story, but overall his arc was great. "

Kaikeyi
by: Vaishnavi Patel
"An epic, indeed! I loved learning about a culture I don't know much about. It was a bit slow in the first half but ended really well. Wow, did you feel the conflict and hard choices to be made!"
