Other Worlds: Peasants, Pilgrims, Spirits, Saints by Teffi

July 22, 2023 by elderberrywine Leave a Comment

cbr15bingo strange worlds If, one fine morning in Old Mother Russia, you are out for a ramble through the countryside, and you happen upon a beautiful but sad young woman sitting in a steam looking piteously in your direction, do not attempt to render her aid. The tears are a device to lure you to her, the reason she is sitting in the stream is because her bottom half is a fish, and it will not go well for you at all. Water spirits are […]

CBR15 Bingo: Adulthood

Happy Place by Emily Henry

July 22, 2023 by Malin Leave a Comment

4.5 stars CBR15 Bingo: Adulthood 15-word review: Harriet and Wyn broke up months ago, but can’t tell their friends. Sexual tension follows. Official book description: Harriet and Wyn have been the perfect couple since they met in college—they go together like salt and pepper, honey and tea, lobster and rolls. Except, now—for reasons they’re still not discussing—they don’t. They broke up five months ago. And still haven’t told their best friends. Which is how they find themselves sharing a bedroom at the Maine cottage that […]

Your Driver Is Waiting by Priya Guns

July 21, 2023 by Jake 1 Comment

Read as part of CBR15Bingo: Guide. Damani is a ride share driver guiding folks to their destinations and also a guide through her messed up city and life. Had to sit on this review for a few days because the book blew me away but I wasn’t sure what to write about it when I was done. Without question, it’s one of  the best things I read this year. Yes, it’s definitely a riff on Taxi Driver. Your mileage may vary as to whether or not it’s […]
