Young at Heart with Judy Blume

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume

December 29, 2021 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

Reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume was a walk down memory. I read this for our Cannon Book Club Young at Heart meeting in April since it was the shortest! Alas, it took me a ridiculously long time to listen to the audiobook. I made the mistake of listening in bed when tired from work. I went right to sleep! Tales kicked off this popular book series about Peter and his little brother Fudge. Peter wants to hang out with his friends and have […]

Magical love in a small town

Witch Please (Fix It Witches #1) by Ann Aguirre

December 28, 2021 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

I can’t say no to a witch-y romance. I liked Ann Aguirre’s Grimspace, so it was a no-brainer to pre-order Witch Please. I had planned to read it in time for The Ripped Bodice book club. Alas, life got in the way. I did finish it up during the Thanksgiving break. This small-town romance brings together baker Titus and secret witch Danica. Danica lives with her cousin Clem. Together they own a local repair shop where they can practice their special magic to fix broken things. […]

A small town paranormal romance reminiscent of Northern Exposure

How to Date Your Dragon (Mystic Bayou #1) by Molly Harper

March 28, 2021 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Molly Harper’s paranormal romance series kicks off with How to Date Your Dragon. I previously read a novella from this universe for CBR11 called Even Tree Nymphs Get the Blues. The world was hilarious and the story didn’t skimp on the heat. I meant to go back to the beginning last year, but the ‘Rona made me totally forget about it. Mystic Bayou, Louisiana is a small town where humans and magical beings coexist in this unique harmony. Jillian works for a secret organization that […]

Cover of A Deadly Inside Scoop

Cozy mysteries that will make you hungry

Death by Dumpling by Vivien Chien

A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette

March 28, 2021 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

Sometimes you need a cozy mystery (or two) to relax your mind. If you’re looking for low-stakes mysteries featuring female amateur sleuths, give the Noodle Shop or Ice Cream Parlor books a whirl. Coincidently, these are both set in Ohio. A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette is a newer series with only two books released. In book one, we meet Bronwyn, Win for short, as she re-opens the family’s ice cream shop in the middle of winter. Not the best time, but her home-made […]

A World In Which Magicians Can Also be Hackers

How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse by K. Eason

December 27, 2020 by CoffeeShopReader 1 Comment

I saw a familiar cover in a bookstore, went to look at it, and realized that it was in fact the sequel of something sitting on a TBR shelf that I’d kind of forgotten about. Thus, I had to read the one I had before getting the next one because what if I didn’t like the first one? And the first one would probably be necessary to pick up and follow the new one. Thus, I took How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse off my […]

I’m just here for Lisbeth

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

October 2, 2020 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was my Mocha Girls Read book club pick for May with the theme of Scandanavian Mystery. When the original book came out, I was aware of the hype but opted for the film adaptations. I enjoy all incarnations, so I figured the novel would grip me. Instead, I found myself getting a bit impatient with the plot when it didn’t focus on the titular “The Girl”. The story follows a journalist named Mikael Blomkvist who has been hired by […]
