A gripping Southern noir

All Sinners Bleed by S.A. Cosby

December 18, 2024 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

When not reading romance, I love me some mysteries! I usually stray into cozies with pun titles, but been known to enjoy a good detective novel too. All Sinners Bleed was my first read from S.A. Cosby. The novel follows Titus Crowne, a newly elected Black sheriff when tragedy befalls the hometown where he serves. A school shooting uncovers buried secrets and forces the town to reckon with the concept of murderers in their midst. Titus was in the FBI and came home to live […]

The Light, The Dark, and The Dragon

Consort of Fire by Kit Rocha

December 18, 2024 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Consort of Fire was an insta-buy because I love the author duo Kit Rocha to pieces! Their new duology kicks off with Sachielle on her way to become the said consort of a mysterious dragon lord. He is a powerful man named Ash who can literally become a dragon. This immortal dude is pretty scary, but Sachi isn’t afraid. She has been dreaming of fire and determined to seduce him… The twist is she is on a lifelong path to assassinate him lest she will […]

The Visitor by Dodai Stewart

A romantic memoir about the idea of love

The Visitor (The One #5) by Dodai Stewart

February 2, 2024 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

“The Visitor” is a true story from journalist Dodai Stewart. On NYE, I stumbled upon it looking for something quick to hit my book goal. Once I began, I realized I’d rather savor it. I finished the audiobook while walking my pup on New Year’s Day. The story is a poignant musing on the idea of love. She explains how she grew up in New York. She loves how cinematic living in the city can be. Everything seems full of promise and glamor, especially when […]

I Choose Darkness

I Choose Darkness

I Choose Darkness by Jenny Lawson

December 31, 2023 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

I didn’t make my half cannonball, but I do want to hit my reading goal. So I squeezed in a short essay by Jenny Lawson this morning. I Choose Darkness is a short essay and Amazon Original. Goodreads synopsis: From cheap costumes to creepy dolls to questionable candy, number one New York Times bestselling author Jenny Lawson weaves a hauntingly hilarious account of her ongoing—sometimes outrageous—Halloween life. The holly-jolly holidays aren’t for everyone, least of all when you look back on that one Christmas when there were […]

Selkies are hard to resist

Selkies Are a Girl's Best Friend by Molly Harper

December 31, 2023 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

I love the Mystic Bayou series and picked up the fourth audiobook, Selkies Are a Girl’s Best Friend Goodreads synopsis: Sonja Fong isn’t afraid of a little chaos. As director of the league’s research center in Mystic Bayou, a tiny town in Louisiana that’s home to supernatural creatures and humans alike, she’s responsible for making sure things run smoothly. It’s not an easy task when her daily memos include lines like, “New equipment is needed because the old equipment was destroyed by a temper tantrum […]
