Genre: Mystery
Kicked off February with the latest (for me) of JD Robb’s In Death series. At 50-something books in, I feel like you know what you’re signing up for. This delivers right down the middle.

Sweet romance with a twist of a little magical realism. The vibe was Disney princess levels of sweet, but it matched the setting. I was onboard with this, but didn’t love a specific third act choice that knocked it down a star for me.

LOVED this. Grounded in Arthurian legend, voodoo, and modern day North Carolina. Addresses real-world issues while also delivering on the fantasy plot. Immediately ordered the second book in the cycle.

Less of a story and more of a reverie on humanity and what gives life meaning.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Representation of autism and anxiety within the bounds of a healthy relationship, we love to see it. This one also, though, had a baffling third act choice that seemed to both appear and resolve out of nowhere.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
Interesting plot that really painted the picture of growing up in the Caribbean, but I wanted more character development. This was also the third book in three weeks that I read with (mostly off-page) SA as a plot device, and I’m just over it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
I thought the mystery itself was well-constructed! The author made a choice to have the tone be very fourth-wall breaking and meta-aware, though, which I found distracting to the point of being annoying
