Tessa: *thunks* Is Madeline Sheehan is going to release the end of the series? Please say yes! It’s been YEARS and I still remember the series. Though, I’ll probably re-read it just to refresh my memory.
Amy: You know which series I would love to do a happy dance over? The next book in the Holy Trinity series by Madeline Sheehan. *sigh* At this point though, I’ve pretty much given up on having any kind of resolution to that story….
That being said, if I have to accept the heartbreaking events which happened in the last book as the ending, I can at least let my imagination wrap things up. And y’all know my mind so things ain’t pretty. 😉

Ooh a new Dannika Dark book. *click*
Hey Jan, I was just thinking it’s spring there & wondered whether you’re doing any gardening. Living vicariously🌷 At this end, flowers are fading out. Presently shutting down our little cottage/campsite for the winter. Moving docks, old boats, adirondacks, tents & canoes. (Oh, that is, hub is doing all that LOL) My job is to make food and clean. Very quiet, loons, crimson leaves, lake’s a mirror. Good for reading…🍁
Currently really into The Ex Hex, and 1 clicked The Lighthouse Witches in the middle of the night. Thought I’d preordered it, but it was sitting in my cart. Loving all the spooky season themed books that have come out so far! Would love to read Payback’s a Witch as well.
Tiffanie DeBartolo wrote How to Kill a Rock Star. Just finished. Got a nasty burn on my arm and couldn’t do much so reading it was. I love this book. Not sure why it took me so long to read it after I loved the Heart Shaped Hole. I love her writing style and the references to other bands and movies. She will always be a one click for me. I just bought Grace: Based on the Jeff Buckley Story one she wrote in 2019.
OMG I LOVED that book so much. What a twist, right??? I was furious at her in my review. Haha!! But boy was that good!

I blew on my cup of coffee, frowning as I watched the snow fall outside. The weekend was a bust.
The Orc Wife by S.J. Sanders
No judgement – I was asked to moderate an October group read for Goodreads called Monster Love for Hallowe’en. Campy, crazy & lots of fun. This book was voted in. Other crazy nominees were: Ensnared (The Spider’s Mate #1), The Minotaur Takes a Cigarette Break, Contagion (OCD Alien), Morning Glory Milking Farm, King Cobra, Claimed by the Goblin King, Warm Bodies (Teen Zombie), Dances With Raptors (Dinoverse #1), I Married A Lizardman.
Craziest book thing I’ve ever done…but worth all the laughter. 🤦♀️
