I'm currently reading Furious Violet by Sarai Walker and liking it so far.
I've also been reading Everything We Never Had by Randy Ribay with my son and really like it, too.

August was a slog for reading, not because of the book, but because of everything going on with our move.
Ironically, I've been reading Bill Bryson's At Home, which has simultaneously made me grateful for the relatively modern luxuries we enjoy and take for granted, while also wondering how humanity survived industrialization at all! 😅

And that means I got to start #SpookyReads2026 book 3 last night.
I started listening to 'King Sorrow' by Joe Hill.
I'm enjoying the start of this so far, especially starting at a prestigious small Maine liberal arts college, for obvious reasons. I'm wondering if the name of a particular historic figure in the fiction is a sly homage to Shirley Jackson, which wouldn't surprise me.

I also finished 'Pandora's Star' by Peter F. Hamilton yesterday morning.
Decent reread, not sure if I will continue the series on audio. I really disliked the narrator and his style, so that alone would put me off continuing. This is a good series if you're looking for epic-sized space opera that presents a society in close proximity to ours.

This week for reading I'm digging into #SpookyReads2026.
Book 2 is 'My Darling Dreadful Thing' by Johanna van Veen.
I'm really enjoying this wonderful gothic. It is more atmospheric and creepy than scary, which is how I like my horror. The plot reminds me a lot of the film 'Crimson Peak' (which I need to rewatch), but more sapphic-leaning. I think the last time I enjoyed a Spooky Reads book this much was last year's 'Black River Orchard' by Chuck Wendig.

I realize people hate AI, but I do use a site called GoArt.fotor to make my heroine on the Flicka's LOVERS book cover do stuff. I couldn't resist posting this one for the promo that the book is in. Even Flicka can't believe how hot this Book Funnel Promotion is--the Dirty Little Secrets promo running throughout May, which Flicka's LOVERS is featured in. CLICK ON FLICKA! https://books.bookfunnel.com/dirtylittlesecrets/5ekvo0duwp #secrets #promotion #books #bookfunnel #book #novel #novels #now #may #featured #fridayVibes #friday #fridayReads #booktok #mastodon #ai #aiArt #mastoArt #goodreads #romanceReaders #romancelandia #romance #love #loveStory

I highly recommend #LynnKurland's novels, in particular, her #dePiaget and #MacLeod series. Here's the kicker, the two series have a lot of crossovers, too!
What is the genre of the two series? It depends on the novel.
1. The most common is #romance and #romantic (the romantic “genre” isn't necessarily romance per se). Now, we are not talking about romance as most people assume, a girl is head over hills on a hunk guy who is a secret villain or a vampire. (aside: Nothing wrong with that particular sub-genre, I read those, too.)
2. #TimeTravel
3. #Historical
4. #Paranormal
5. #Fantasy
There is also a touch of #family and #relationships here and there.
The first book I've read was #DreamsOfStardust. It was so good, I bought every copy of it I saw and gave away for free to friends and colleagues. I recommend starting with it if you are new with Lynn Kurland's works.
You don't have to worry if you start in the middle, or the latest book. Each book is stand-alone. In some, you'll get hints of the greater universe, in some, you wouldn't even know it unless you read, or have read, the other novels.
For example, you can start with #OneEnchantedEvening and #OneMagicMoment. These are two are like twin books but at the same stand-alone.
Lynn Kurland is an American #author, and the de Piaget and MacLeod series are both set in the United Kingdom. The former is around England, while the latter is around Scotland.
Lastly, if you do want to read the books in an order suggested by the author herself, check out: https://www.lynnkurland.com/books/reading-orders/ #ReadingOrder
But, trust me, don't look for a chronological order. The entire universe involves time travel here and there with paranormal, too. It is hard to have an anchor. Read the novels in any order you want.
That's it for this week's FridayReads and FictionFriday!
