I am doing an A-Z challenge. Books might change, but tentative:

I lied. Too many series for this. Also stole Lady's tracker code

Bingo Tracker


Book: Fate of the Sorrow by J.C. Wade
Bingo Space: Shorter than 200 words
Thoughts/Review: This almost felt like cheating because it was so short, but it was a prequel to a series I got for Christmas my parents bought on a whim. (Yay for meeting a local author!) The writing is beautiful with lots of detail, and I'm excited to read the first book of the series.
Book: The Coworker by Freida McFadden
Bingo Space: Someone's Favorite Book
Thoughts/Review:Picked this one up because an ex-coworker recommended it and I have inside joke about a turtle which are heavily referenced in this book. It was... okay? I called the twist halfway through the book and it felt like a knock-off version of Gone Girl. Ending sucked.
Book: Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber
Bingo Space: Retelling of a Classic
Thoughts/Review:1/5. There wasn't much I enjoyed about this book at all. Alice in Wonderlandesque.
Book: Blindsighted by Karin Slaughter
Bingo Space: Favorite Author
Thoughts/Review: 4/5 stars. Oh boyy, this was a RIDE. I love this woman. She's a thriller writer who isn't afraid of gore or brutalizing people. It's a series<3 Book one
Book: Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
Bingo Space: Longer than 500 Pages
Thoughts/Review: I was surprised at how much I liked this. The plot is interesting even if the author uses like... every trope ever made.
Book: Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros
Bingo Space: Sequel
Thoughts/Review: Sequel to Fourth Wing. It was rushed & felt like 90% of the book was the main character throwing a temper tantrum over her boyfriend. Still, interesting enough that I'll keep reading the series.
Book: The Inmate by Freida McFadden
Bingo Space: Picked Up On a Whim
Thoughts/Review: Listen. This author just writes main female characters stuck in high school, and the male is always picture perfect who everyone adores until he does something wrong. 3/5. It was... meh.
Book: Kisscut by Karin Slaughter
Bingo Space: Crime
Thoughts/Review: Another thriller book where the main characters have to find out why someone threatened to kill someone else. 4/5. What. A. Ride. Book two<3
