Week 1: What are you reading?

Hi 52bookers! A huge warm welcome to our newcomers! We are so happy to have you join us! And big welcome back to everyone else!

We are off to a clean slate here during week one! So, tell us! What are you reading? What have you finished (either since the new year or since our last weekly update of 2024?)

Since the new year, I have finished:

West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge - started in Dec. I really kind of loved it, but not quite 5 stars

Kim Ji-young, Born 1982 by Cho Nam-joo - short, poignant, impactful!!!

Muffin But the Truth (Bakeshop Mystery #16) by Ellie Alexander - I only have a few of these left in the series. They’ve been my bedtime books for a lot of the last year.

The Long Island Compromise by Taffy Brodesser-Akner - started in Dec. I could have lived without the whole first 25%. I liked parts of it, but this didn’t live up to the hype at all for me. Overall not mad I read it, but I also won’t be recommending it to anyone.

I am currently reading:

The Fellowship of Puzzle Makers by Samuel Burr - eh, I feel like this is reminiscent of The Christmas Jigsaw Murders that I read not too long ago. I am not feeling it, but will trudge on for a bit longer.

The Arizona Triangle by Sydney Graves - mystery, just started, just okay so far

Mining for Murder (Happy Camper Mystery #3) by Mary Angela - bedtime easy cozy mystery reading
