The Reads:
- Depression & Other Magic Tricks by Sabrina Benaim | 3 Stars | A friend gifted me a copy of their favorite poetry book and I could have cried over how sweet of a gesture that is
- Basil and Oregano by Melissa Capriglione | 3 Stars | this was a very sweet YA graphic novel
- Bellini Born by Siena Trap | 3 Stars | ARC Read
- Anchor by Nicole Blanchard | 3 Stars | Much more action packed than I was expecting
- Close Your Eyes and Count to 10 by Lisa Unger | 3 Stars | A messy game of extreme hide and seek. Got to meet this author and she was very nice.
- Night Watcher by Daphne Woolsoncroft | 3.5 Stars | My favorite of the month since I feel need to pick one, nails the creepy suspenseful vibes
- Must Love Moss and Moonshine by Maisy Magill | 3 Stars
- Spicy or Sweet by Sophie Snow | 3 Stars | I preferred the book that comes before this one, this was the start of an age gap kick for me.
- Out of Sight by Cleo White | 3.5 Stars | Age gap #2
- Chasing The Wild by Elliott Rose | 3.5 Stars | Age gap #3
- Grady Lake by JL Hyde | 3 Stars | I would have liked this more if the characters had been more mature
- It's A Set Up by Stef C.R. | 3.5 Stars | The third book I have read from this author this year and I enjoy how her writing improves with each book
- Burn for Jack by Aiden Pierce | 3 Stars | I wanted a slutty dark Halloween Novella and this book delivered
- The Mate by Abigail Owen | 3 Stars | As a prequel Novella, this does have me intrigued by the next book in the series
- Prince of Beasts by Lyonne Riley | 3 Stars | I like Arranged Marriages and Political Marriages but Coerced Marriages are not for me
- Secrets of Grady by JL Hyde | 3.5 Stars | I liked book 2 more than book 1 and I am excited to see how the author wraps things up in book 3
- Bitter Heat by Leta Blake | 3.5 Stars | Leta has a wonderful way of making characters with so much depth, it's hard not to love them.

You had a great month of reading despite not hitting that sweet spot.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear it was a meh reading month, here's hoping November will be full of 4 and 5 star reads!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for some 4s and 5s!
DeleteLooking at those ratings and I can understand calling it a meh month. I've been there. I hope your next reads are better. You look due for a five-star.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Manifesting a 5 Star read for us both!
DeleteNothing higher than 3.5 is a bit of a disappointment, I bet. I hope next month (this month?) brings some better books to you.
ReplyDeleteThat's a shame it wasn't as good of a reading month, hopefully November has some better read. Some of those 3.5 stars do sound decent, but it's too bad you didn't have any very memorable books.
ReplyDeleteI hope that your November reading will make it up to you for the lack of 5* reads in October!
