bookshelves: history, non-fiction, true-crime
Educational and interesting. Works best when you read a bit here and there I think. ]]> Review7427065856 Tue, 29 Apr 2025 12:56:13 -0700 /review/show/7427065856 Alice gave 2 stars to Matrix (Paperback) by Lauren Groff
bookshelves: historical-fiction
Kind of felt like I just picked this up at the wrong time? Not quite sure - although the writing was beautiful, I struggled to get invested in it. ]]> Review7422357659 Tue, 29 Apr 2025 12:54:57 -0700 /review/show/7422357659 Alice gave 1 star to A Spoonful Of Murder (Liz, Pat and Thelma, #1) by J.M. Hall
bookshelves: mystery-thriller-crime
Not for me, found it predictable and the characters felt interchangeable. ]]> Review5982928630 Tue, 29 Apr 2025 12:54:13 -0700 /review/show/5982928630 Alice gave 4 stars to Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop (Hardcover) by Hwang Bo-Reum

bookshelves: horror, fantasy, mystery-thriller-crime
I was SPOOKED (but in a good way). As always with Kingfisher, love the humor in between the dark and scary bits. ]]> Review7397278390 Tue, 29 Apr 2025 12:52:03 -0700 /review/show/7397278390 Alice gave 5 stars to Intermezzo (Paperback) by Sally Rooney

bookshelves: fantasy, science-fiction, mystery-thriller-crime
Engaging fantasy with an interesting world and magic system. Especially loved the academic setting. Don't quite believe the main character is only 17 though. ]]> ReadStatus9367250862 Tue, 29 Apr 2025 12:45:51 -0700 /review/show/6029158482 Alice finished reading Briefly, a Delicious Life by Nell Stevens
