It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? (12/9/24)
Happy Monday my reader friends!
I’d love to have a happy, upbeat update for you but man I am exhausted. This part of the year has gotten harder over the last couple of years and I’m just trying to give myself as much grace as possible. I suggest that you do the same! I saw a post that said that we should end the year soft, instead of strong. Rest, recharge and get ready to tackle a new year. Sounds like more reading needs to happen in my future.
Let’s take a look at where things are this week, shall we?
Read Last Week:
Last week I finished The Sky on Fire by Jenn Lyons and MANNNNN I loved it so much. It’s very… erm… spicy at points? But the Fantasy aspect of it is super solid and I very much enjoyed the antics of our ragtag group of MCs. I also finished The Inheritance Games which you can find my review of here, and that one I didn’t love so much. Can we please just do away with unnecessary love triangles? Pretty please.
Currently Reading:
I’m still at about 70% of The Teller of Small Fortunes by Julie Leong. It’s still a super cute story, but it’s a little bit too slow at times. I’m reading it in the evening before bed. On audio, I’m listening to Bluebird Day by Megan Tady. This one was a recommendation from Book Riot and I’m adoring it so far. Even the narrator is pretty solid!
Reading Next:
While I was waiting for my library turn with The Butcher of the Forest by Premee Mohamed, I read one of their backlog titles. I am so glad that I did. The writing in that novella was stellar, and now I am so very excited to dive into this novel! I’m just waiting to finish my current reads.
That’s it for me! What are you reading this week?

Thanks so much for the introduction to Premee Mohamed! She is a new to me Canadian author. Her work sounds just brilliant!
