    Great pile of possibilities! I'm reading The Appeal in January, and I'm intrigued by Jane Harper. I think I'd like to read The Dry sometime in the first quarter of the year. Happy reading!

    My January TBR are "cold" books. The Split by Sharon Bolton; An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena; Snow Drowned; New York, New Year, New You; Winterfrost; The Snow Child. Then Station Eleven; Odder; And Then, Boom!; Soul Boom by Wilson Raine.

    🎲🎯🥇🪙 Ohhh I LOVE The Appeal. I'm reading it for the 3rd time! I read it last year...then again in October for an online book club and now for my January IRL book club! It is really really good. It's a full cast on audio which is awesome! I will say...because it is all texts and emails it does take some getting use to on audio. Stick with it though...there are so many characters that having different voices for each does help in the l8ng run. Also...no spoiler but a hint to add to the reading experience (not the solving of the mystery though)... the play that the community players are performing is a real play. You can look it up and read the premise of the plot of the play and that adds even more dimension, IMHO, to this book and the many characters. It's so good!! Can't wait to hear what you think!!

    • @BooksAndJams
      @BooksAndJams  5 днів тому

      The 3rd time! Wow. I am so eager to read The Appeal. Can't believe I haven't yet! Good to know that you did like the audio.

    I'm thinking of not calling it a TBR anymore, but a POP.😋 I have The British Booksellers but am holding it for a few more months. Sounds soooo good! Had my Jan. POP picked by the first wk. in Dec. All winter bks.Snow, Ice, anything winter on cover or title; in a huge tote. Will start w/Snow And Rose. A retelling of a not so well known Hans Christian Anderson fairytale--Snow White And Rose Red. You look very pretty today. Really like your hair that way, top is perfect for you and your nails are gorgeous! "Pretty Woman"!

    • @BooksAndJams
      @BooksAndJams  2 дні тому

      I don't get books from publishers, at least not print ones. But that's because i don't really request them. Sarah from Sarah's Nightstand just did a video recently about how she requests books. I know on Netgalley you don't have to have a platform to request early release Ebooks. You just have to review them on Goodreads or Amazon. That would be a great place to start. I don't do this for a living. It takes a while to build up a following big enough to get paid enough to live on. I've been doing it for 8 years and it's only a side-gig for me. Hope that's helpful.

    I do have The Light Pirate on my list of books to read this year. I’m a mood reader so it’s hard for me to plan what books I’m going to read 😂….🎲🪙

      I like having a lot of variety in my POP (pile of possibilities) each month. Then I can still read my mood but get the books read too!
