They are all very unique books. I admit I’m struggling a bit with keeping interest in The Raven’s Tale, but the story is improving some recently. Stay tuned for my review next week. 🤗

Good Me, Bad Me disappointed me. I thought it would be darker.

Even though this was on my TBR list, I basically read it blind. I really had no expectations at all. Perhaps that’s why I enjoyed it more? The book seriously creeped me out. Sorry you didn’t enjoy it as much. Have you read any others recently that like better?
