The month of June started off promising, but I struggled to finish four books. To be completely honest, the last one I actually finished either on the first or second of July, but I’ll count it towards this month. They were actually all great reads, with The Overnight Guest just okay. Let me get to […]
May 2022 Book Reviews

April 2022 Book Reviews
I had high hopes that in April I would be able to read two books a week. Although I came very close, I did not achieve the goal I set for myself. I still got through seven books. That is pretty respectable, if I may say so myself. I squeezed in Reckless Girls the last […]
Author Spotlight Series – Stefan Ahnhem
Stefan Ahnhem Hello, friends! I thought I would start a monthly author spotlight series for you, fellow bookworms.

Favorite Books of 2021
Hey friends! As promised, I’ve compiled a list of my favorite books of 2021. Originally I was planning to do a favorite book per month. But some months I have more than one favorite, and a couple of months the reads were just not that memorable. That is the reason I’m so late with […]
December 2021 Book Reviews
To finish up this year, I’ve read a few solid books in the month of December. Some I have enjoyed tremendously, some, not so much.

A week late posting but with the holidays approaching, I’ve been a little busier than anticipated. But here goes my tally of November reads.
