“I love Jeff’s books because they are so funny. And they are fun to read. I almost have all the books” -Mason 7 yo

3.5 stars. I feel torn about this book. It had a strong start introducing the brainy healer FMC and the MMC assassin who begrudgingly turns to her for a cure to an illness that is slowly sealing his fate in death. The premise has so much promise! I felt like the chemistry was under-delivered and the overarching plot felt rather underwhelming to me. I wanted more adventure and magic but instead there were brothels and boredom. I think I’ll skip future books in this romantasy series.

it was amazing

It was good because nat was trying her best to complete the trailton.

This book is amazing, it shows so much creativity and magic. I recommend this book for any wizard loving-adventure seeking-magic exploring people who want some fun with a book

This is a lovely book! I was lucky to receive a digital ARC of this graphic novel from NetGalley to review. After loving The Magic Fish, I was eager to read Trung Le Nguyen’s latest, which is set to release in October 2025. The full color illustrations are dreamy, gorgeous feasts for the eyes. After overextending herself, Angelica turns to a place that has captivated her and brought her comfort: the local theater and its upcoming production featuring Per the Bear Prince. This story has a little of everything: family drama and grief, a second chance romance, friendship, and more. While this sophomore book doesn’t feel as deep or impactful as its predecessor, it still gets top marks for me. Young audiences will love it and older readers will appreciate it.

This is a great book. I recommend this for readers who like adventure and survival books.

It was a very detailed and amazing book with lots of twists and turns awaiting you around every bend.

Fascinating history of the emergence of a publicly funded regional police force with beat officers and plain oclothes detectives. Medical discoveries and new technology soon sparked new methods for solving crimes. Some photos, extensive footnotes with sources, and an index. A great read on a foggy day.

This book kept popping into my radar as an Indie Next pick for July 2025 and I read about it via The NY Times. I don’t often go for nonfiction memoir/biography but my interest piqued at this tale of a couple surviving adrift for four months after their yacht capsized. It’s a wild story and worth a read. I listen to the short audiobook on Spotify.
