My favorite book so far is probably the Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells. Yes, it’s a series, but they are pretty short. I might have mentioned this before, but I could not get through the Lovely Bones. I don’t think I’m giving anything away to say that a girl dies, cuz the book is all about her afterlife. But I just couldn’t get past her death. I don’t care what anyone says. I will never stop loving or reading JK Rowling. I just finished a re-read of the Robert Galbraith books. If you haven’t tried them, I highly recommend. And I’m currently on book six of my millionth re-read of Harry Potter, this time for the Chapter a Day fantasy challenge. I’m wayyyy ahead of schedule, but I don’t care! :-)

Like you, I can't choose. I just finished Moloka'i by Alan Brennert, which was amazing. A great historically accurate historical fiction about a leper colony on Moloka'i. It follows a girl throughout her lifetime from the late 1890s through 1970. I also loved Kindred by Octavia E. Butler. I read Funny Story last month and loved it.

So glad you lived The Frozen River! I also have a TBR jar. All books go in the jar. When I acquire new books, I create slips for those books and add them to the jar. I would become confused with two jars as to which books are in which jar, when do 'new acquisitions' become 'old acquisitions and put into the larger jar...to much to manage for me. Hope you figure out what works for you!😊

I read The Duke and I, I read that after I saw the 1st Bridgerton, for I never heard of the books at the time, after I saw the show, I started the book series, before the other shows came out. Also read Just Mercy, after you read that book you should read The Sun Does Shine by Anthony Ray Hinton, it is mention in Just Mercy, a guy wrongly accused and is in jail for a long time until Bryan Stevenson takes his case. I listened to it, and it is narrated by the Anthony Ray Hinton, the guy who was wrongly accused, excellent book.
