Top Ten Tuesday: Characters I'd Like To Go On Vacation With

    Happy Tuesday everyone!  Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday which is is hosted by  That Artsy Reader Girl .  This week's topic is Characters I'd Like To Go On Vacation With.  This was a tough one for me, but I think I picked out some great characters from ten separate stories.   Amina Al-Sirafi from - The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi ( Amina al-Sirafi #1) by Shannon Chakraborty - I think any trip with her would be quite an adventure! Angel, Cordelia, and Doyle - Close to the Ground ( Buffyverse #49) by Jeff Mariotte - I really get a kick out of the fun little character moments between Angel, Cordelia, and Doyle in this tie-in novel and the tv series.  I would definitely go on that studio tour that Cordy guides! Kel, Lila, Rhy, and Alucard - The Fragile Threads of Power ( Threads of Power #1) by V.E. Schwab - Honestly, I think I would enjoy going on any trip with these four! Kate Bishop and Kamala Khan - Hawkeye: Bishop Takes King by Ashley Poston  - I think this is more of a ca

12 Books 12 Friends Reading Challenge 2024 - March Update

Happy Saturday everyone!  Today, I'm sharing my March update for the 12 Books 12 Friends Reading Challenge 2024 .  In March, I managed to complete 3 books for a total 8 out of the 12 books.  Without further ado, keep reading to see my thoughts on the 3 books I read in March:   ❋   ❋  ❋  ❋ How to Stop Time by Matt Haig  is a thought-provoking historical fantasy sci-fi stand alone novel that's been on my tbr for way too long. I especially enjoyed all of the little historical details Tom  experiences over the course of his very long life.  If you're a fan of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab or The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North, I have a feeling you'll need to have this book in your life. My review is also on Goodreads . ❋   ❋  ❋ The Bone Orchard by Sara A. Mueller  is a tough one for me to rate. The concept and the atmosphere had me hooked, but the plot at times left me scratching my head and sometimes with more questions than anythi
