The Incandescent by Emily Tesh, 3/5
the pacing of this book felt really weird? like the stakes of the first 100 pages felt heightened beyond what they needed to be. and then the ending was predictable though there was a fun twist in there

You Should Be So Lucky by Cat Sebastian, 3/5
this was fine I guess? sure did feel like they were having the same argument over and over for 200 pages and then just gave in without much resolution.

The Listeners by Maggie Stiefvater, 4/5
I was skeptical of this concept and bc of trc sequel trilogy but actually this book was really lovely, Maggie is back with the subtle magic that made me enjoy her writing so much in the first place.

The Cruelest Month by Louise Penny, 4/5
I think this has been my favorite Gamache so far, loved the premise, enjoyed the twist with the corruption case. the actual murder felt a little predictable tho
