Welcome back to Whatcha Reading! Here’s how we’re closing out the month of April:
Lara: I started BR Myers’ The Third Wife of Faraday House ( A | BN | K | AB ) about a week ago, but I haven’t managed more than a few chapters so far. I adored a dreadful splendor so assumed I’d love this one too. I’m not quite ready to admit defeat though and will try get into it again tonight.
Sarah: I have been listening to Chelsea Devantez’ memoir to prep for an interview (squeeeee!) and have also been listening to the Innkeeper Chronicles ( A | BN | K | AB ) full cast audio recordings.
Y’all. I am loving these except there was a kissing scene with MOUTH NOISES and I almost expired dramatically.
Kiki: Bleh kissing MOUTH NOISES in an audiobook should be a criminal crime.
Susan: Matsuri Akino’s Pet Shop of Horrors ( A | BN | K | AB ) is being retranslated/rereleased and I am being so normal about it. It was my first Real Grown-up Fandom (… I was fourteen), it was basically the template for my love of anthology supernatural mysteries, it was one of my first manga…
The art is still gorgeous, the stories are 100% more readable with the new translation, I’m just having a lot of feelings.
Kiki: After many false starts and lots of “it’s too hard to find a book I like”, I’m listening to Jo Goodman’s In Want of a Wife ( A ) which I’m liking well enough. It is very much a people-doing-very-descriptive-chores book, but I kinda like that sometimes? I mean, I don’t wanna do chores, but I’ll listen to other folks do them!
Shana: I’m reading Sylvia’s Second Act by Hillary Yablon. ( A | BN | K | AB ) It fun having a 60-something heroine.
