love him to death – Home | The Blind Scribe

Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you’re all having a good day today. I found this tag on Confessions of a Serial Reader but they said the first person who did it was Deana @thecomfyreader

Onto the tag!

The beach – a book set somewhere tropical

I chose Love Him To Death by Tanya Landman. Amateur sleuths poppy and graham end up with Poppy’s Mum at a celebrity wedding on an island and things start going wrong…

Music festival – a book with a focus on music

The Dog Sitter Detective Takes the Lead by Anthony Johnston, the main character Ginny is hired by a rockstar musician to look after his dog while he goes away on tour and then they all get caught up in the murder

Watermelon – a book with a juicy secret

Most of the books I read have juicy secrets but the one that jumped to mind was Last Girl Breathing, it was an intense thriller filled with secrets, honestly you wouldn’t see the twist coming.

Water park – a book set near or on the water

A Fatal Crossing by Tom Hindle, I haven’t read it yet but I know it is a murder mystery set on a boat so that works for water.

Ice cream – a guilty pleasure book or genre

I chose romance as a whole genre because it is not something I read much so when I do it feels a bit like a guilty pleasure read

Picnic with friends – a book about friendship

I chose The Jewelled Moth by Katherine Woodfine because the main group is four characters and I love reading about their friendship

Road trip – a book that takes you on an adventure

What else could I pick but the Lord of the Rings, the ultimate adventure.

Sunburn – a book that you regret reading

I chose The Cat Who Caught A Killer, one of the worst books I have read, I did not enjoy it at all and I could not suspend my disbelief enough for a talking cat helping her solve mysteries I just couldn’t.

Summer Dress – a book that is light and cute

Plus One by Kelsey Rodkey, it is a sweet romance, I liked it a lot

Mosquito – a book with an annoying character

This might be controversial but I had to choose Mal from Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Happy Thursday bookish people! I hope you’re all having a good day today. I know this is a couple of days late but I haven’t been very well. But finally I can put up my May wrap up! I had a much better reading month, part of this was because I took part in the 48 hour readathon hosted by Becca and the Books on YouTube for which I ended up reading seven books over a weekend.

So, let’s see what I managed to read this month from my TBR:

The Crooked Sixpence by Jennifer Bell – I did read this! It was one of the seven books I read for the readathon, a review will be coming soon
The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling – another book I read as part of the readathon, review coming soon
Graceling by Kristen Cashore – I did not read this
Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare – I did not read this
Last Chance Books by Kelsey Rodkey – I did not read this
Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao – I did not read this
A Three Dog Problem by S J Bennett – I did not read this
The Crowns Game by Evelyn Skye – I did not read this
A River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross – I did not read this
The Final Girls Support Group by Grady Hendrix – I did read this for the spooky book prompt of the readathon
A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske – I read this while on the drive up to Cardiff for a concert this month
The Key in the Lock by Beth Underdown – I did not read this
Dangerous Women by Hope Adams – I started this book in May and I am currently finishing it now
A Line to Kill by Anthony Horowitz – I did read this
Cecily by Annie Garthwaite – I also read this
Queenslayer by Sebastien de Castell – and I read this

Outside of my TBR I also read Turtles All The Way Down by John Green, Newts Emerald by Garth Nix and Love Him To Death by Tanya Landman

I think I read 11 books this month which is really great and a lot better than the past few months.

That’s it for my May Wrap up, I hope you all had a good reading month. My reviews of the books that I read will be going up soon!
