The List of Suspicious Things was a tough act to follow but by Jove she's done it! The Barbecue at No 9 by @jenniegauthor.bsky.social is just as perfect in every single way. You're gonna want this on your bookshelves come February. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My last monthly wrap-up of 2024, and it's been a busy one (I had a Disney novella advent calendar which explains the high total).
I read 38 in total. 16 ARC, 1 gifted, 21 I owned. 20 adult fiction, 15 children/YA, 3 non-fiction. 9 were debuts, and 12 were five-star reads.

I have 32 books I want to read before the end of the year.
There are 38 days left in the year.
That equals 0.84 books a day for the rest of 2024.
Ambitious much? 🙃

Thank you @canongate.co.uk for my copy of One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This by Omar El Akkad.
This sounds like such a powerful book and very timely. I can't wait to read it.

There are some authors who I order without even checking what the book is about; Haruki Murakami is such an author.
