An interesting addition to this series. This was possibly my least favorite, but I can't quite place why. Still a respectable installment, but perhaps the interpersonal conflict with our characters left me feeling detached.

Fun paranormal cop partners to lovers story. Not necessarily a stand out amongst its peers at this point, but a decent enough intro to the characters and the set up to the paranormal environment. Will continue with the series.

YA murder mystery set at a boarding school with two perspective characters: the victim's roommate and a school journalist. I enjoyed my time with this one, but will not be likely to remember it. Still would recommend for the target demographic or for a fun, easy read.

This was a cute trilogy that balanced cozy and action enough to keep me invested. Very pleased with my time spent with this series.

This was my second read of this novella. First time was standard audio and second time was GraphicAudio. I find myself more inclined toward standard audio for book 1 and GraphicAudio for book 2? Much to consider, but I'm leaning toward overall preferring the standard.

I think the central concepts of this book are incredibly important and necessary for residents of the United States to know and absorb. What I didn't appreciate as much was the author's technical execution of this book. For a book marketed as a historical text, the author's voice was abundantly clear throughout as were her personal opinions. While facts were well-researched in some regards, there were other places that also needed a bit more fact checking in place. Perhaps by more than one person. This is accessible for mainstream audiences, but I would hope it would inspire further reading on the topics rather than being the only book referenced by a consumer.

This is Onley James writing under the Nolah Harker pen name for her omegaverse works. This was originally a serial work released via Kindle Vella Serials. Season One had quite a lot of plot as well as the spiciness. Season Two was definitely molasses slow on plot and higher on relationship development and spicier scenes. I didn't enjoy this one as well, but am hoping it's a bit of middle book syndrome.

A different perspective on a YA thriller than I've read before. Not only is our perspective character a biracial indigenous girl, but she also winds up as a CI for federal law enforcement. Detective fiction is common, of course, but I've never followed a CI before. Enjoyed the writing and messaging.
