Recent Updates and Currently Reading | March 3

Eeek! The last two weeks have been crazy busy at the Book Den household. I'm hoping to bombard you guys with reviews this week. *fingers crossed*

Wyrd & Wonder

Fantasy month is in May, and the signups are open for Wyrd & Wonder. I have been in such a fantasy mood for the longest time now, but I have trouble finding the time to squeeze more in. I can't wait to put some focus on it in May.

Ladies of Horror Fiction

Also in May, the Ladies of Horror Fiction will be hosting another community wide readalong. I would love it if you would help us pick which book to read and join in with us!

Posted Since My Last Update



Finished Reading


The Between by Tananarive Due Collision by J.S. Breukelaar The Haunting of Henderson Close by Catherine Cavendish

I finished reading The Between as part of the Ladies of Horror Fiction readalong. It was so good. I will be catching up on all of my Tananarive Due reading! ⭐⭐⭐⭐★

I also finished reading Collision - a short story collection by J.S. Breukelaar. You can read my review here. ⭐⭐⭐⭐★

I finished off Women in Horror Month and the LOHF Readalong with The Haunting of Henderson Close by Catherine Cavendish. ⭐⭐⭐★★

Recent Acquisitions


Wolfhunter River by Rachel Caine A Dangerous Collaboration by Deanna Raybourn Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman

Many, many thanks to Rachel Caine for granting me access to Wolfhunter River. I'm a little obsessed with the Stillhouse Lake series, and I can't wait to see what happens next.

A Dangerous Collaboration is book 4 in the Veronica Speedwell series, and I've been told these books can stand alone? I hope so because I'm jumping in at book 4! Barb is a big fan of these books, so I'm excited to read this. Thank you to Berkley Books for mailing me a copy.

I'm not much of a Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett fan, and yet I bought Good Omens anyway. I'm hopelessly optimistic.

So what about you? Let me know what you're reading this week or leave me some links!

  1. Great wrap-up! This week I finished up a wonderful Novella that should be available soon! It's called Screechers by Kevin K Kennedy and Christina Bergling. It was a post-apocalypse novel that was action-packed and intense! I LOVED it! :)

    1. The Stillhouse Lake series was the first one for me to start reading of hers. I have one of her Library series books, though. I need to read more of her books.

  6. I am always tempted to do a month long reading theme, but we all know I can't commit for longer than a week to something. LOL. I hope you find some great books for Fantasy month. Those Raybourn books look really good. I have heard good things too. Hope you enjoy all your new books!

    1. It's too hard to dedicate to one genre - especially when accepting review copies - but I'm hoping to be able to put some focus on fantasy. :)

  7. I just bought a copy of Good Omens yesterday. What a coincidence. I hope I like it to. I've wanted to read American Gods as well but admit I am a tad worried about not liking either. Great haul and I look forward to your reviews.

    1. I tried reading American Gods a long time ago, and it just didn't work for me. Hopefully Good Omens will go better!

  8. Ooh Wyrd and Wonder sounds great! Could definitely use a whole month of fantasy. :)

    I kinda want to try the Raybourn books as well. I've heard pretty good things.

  9. Yes, I just recently snagged a copy of Wolfhunter River as well and I can't wait to read it. I love her fantasy, but I think I'm more addicted to her thrillers :D
