My Spotify Wrapped thinks I'm 79. I also have no memory of listening to Taylor Swift?
Otherwise, fair enough.

Academic slow burn mystery debut. Cady's mentally ill brother took his own life at Harvard. She shows up for her freshman year still grieving, and starts hearing voices - but they are having real conversations. Ghosts? There's a paranomal element, but sadly, this is not horror.

A modern detective wakes up in the body of a teenaged maid in 1860s Scotland -and soon finds herself helping the local surgeon solve a murder. Can she wake up before 5 to tend the chamberpots, solve the crime, and hardest of all, fake being demur? Breezy, funny, well-paced. #books #booksky

Love it when a great artist talks in detail about why he appreciates another artist's work. Here the director of Apocalypse Now and The Godfather talks about Sinners.

Romance + horror set in 1700s Mexico at a silver mine. High drama, lush prose, atmospheric, full of yearning, but also creepy, gothic, bloody... "possession" is refers to Alba's dread of losing her bodily freedom by marriage as a business deal. And also, the demonic kind too. #books #booksky

This one's fun, but don't get it from the library! The illustrations tucked within the dust jacket are essential.
This novel offers brief, cogent analyses of 52 classic artworks, stringed together very loosely within a story about a child being mentored (think Sophie's World.) #books #booksky

Lots of really interesting data for UUs (and other US religions too!!) in this report. Based on 2023 census data.

Instant classic. One of the best books this year.

In the 1980s six college friends in a difficult situation get in way, way over their heads trying to get out of it. Fantasy, horror, action, great storytelling ensue. 900ish pages, and none wasted - loved it . #books #booksky #horror

“I was twelve the first time I saw my dead father cross from the kitchen doorway to the hall that led back to the utility room.”

My short stay in this haunted modular home, inhabiting a kid's grief & anger, felt like falling into the abyss. A sad, bloody, brilliant novella. #books #booksky
