So September is done and wow 16 books finished. Again mostly a mixture of ARCs from Netgallery and Booksprout with only three being non ARCs, and the three non ARCs were The Serial Killer Guide to San Francisco which I did as a audiobook on Spotify, Do Not Disturb which was my first Frieda McFadden and was such a twisty listen on Audible and The Corpse in The Cabana that I read on BookFunnel. My top genre was mystery again mostly cozy and I rated nine books 5.0, two were a 4.75, one was a 4.25, three were 4.0 and only one got rated a 3.75 but these are my ratings and you may rate them higher or lower than me. My goal in October is to try and read some spooky books and more non ARCs. Currently reading The Dog Ladies 🐶 which is a cozy mystery currently on kindle unlimited. Have also included my Storygraph stats for the month of September.

Love,Mom by Iliana Xander eARC from Netgallery -⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wyndclyffe By Joe Hart ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ digital ARC from booksprout.

Good To Grave By Michael Park -3.75 ⭐

Well August is over and I finished 13 books overall about 9 I gave five ⭐, three were a 4.75⭐ and one 3.75⭐, which according to Storygraph makes the average rating of August a 4.85. My top genre is mystery which is my fave genre. The book I massively love was Needle and Bone and the second was How To Survive A Horror Story. The surprise one to like was Mourning Waffles by Trixie Fairdale which though a cozy southern mystery was a fun listen as I did it as an ALC from booksprout. Most of the books were ARCs gotten from Netgallery or Booksprout. Now it's September and I might read more horror as it begins to change into autumn 🍁 but still will probably read some mystery/thriller.

I was able to get these as ARCs from the author Lyssa Lund. I'm a fan of cozy mysteries and also love paranormal and magical stuff so this series was right up my alley also features a little romance in each of the book. The books all revolve around three friends that a reunited after being separated as teenagers due to an event that left them shunned by the town of Sliver Cove. Each book focuses on one on the three, the first book deals with Paris who returns after the death of Helena who took care of her as a kid but had become estranged from after the event. She has been willed half of Helena's house with Finn Helena's nephew and Paris teen crush. Along the way she learns she a witch, Sliver Cove's secret magical community. She also reconnects with Sage and Ginger her old friends, a dead body body leads to a mystery that connects to the event that happened to them as teens.

Got this as a eARC from Netgallery.

My Wife, The Serial Killer by H.J Garbett

So July has ended and now I'm a 40 year old , it was a warm and muggy one🥵. I read/listened to 17 books all but one being an ARC/ALC, I was able to squeeze number 17 on my birthday finishing My Wife, The Serial Killer at 23.50pm. I hope to read more and make a dent in my ever growing ARC pile.
