just finished: I started reading Lindsey Kelk’s In Case You Missed It sometime last year, and put it aside because I saw something shiny. I have that problem. But I picked it up again, on audio, and finished listening to it last week. It’s a fun rom com, very London centric, with a potential podcast with a gamer who isn’t old enough to drink but could buy himself several bars. Loved it! If you love a London rom com, keep this one in mind.
currently reading: I’m reading The Harbor, the third in Katrine Engberg’s series about Copenhagen detectives Korner and Werner. I loved the first two books, The Tenant and The Butterfly House, and this one starts strong. The son of the wealthy owners of an art auction house goes missing, and Korner and Werner are trying to find him. There is a weird note, throwbacks to earlier books, and a new state-of-the-art waste disposal that is environmentally friendly and also a ski jump (I’m not entirely sure how that works, but it seems very Scandinavian). I’m also reading By Any Other Name, a rom com about an editor of romance novels and a difficult author, and the ideas of love that we take away from the books we read. This is a fantastic read, smooth and fun and interesting. I am actually loving this one, and I can’t wait to talk more about it on Tuesday. Also out this week that I’m working on is a YA queer romance called The One True Me and You. A pageant contestant collides with the hardcore fans of the tv show she loves, and she finds herself pulled between the scholarship she needs to win and the person she wants to by (and maybe the person she wants to kiss). This one’s got some sass, got some sweetness, and I love the celebration of whatever makes you happy.
up next: I got this one as a surprise gift from my mother, ad as a big fan of everything British, Irish, and Scottish, I’m looking forward to laughing my way through this one.
