I usually read 1 book each day, but am distracted right now. My current book is #8 in a series: Meditation & Mischief by Elizabeth Pantley. This series is about a 'magical book club', where the 8 members go 'into' a book and interact with the characters while solving the mystery.
I prefer cozy mysteries in general and ghost/witch cozies. I recently found several good science fiction mysteries and enjoyed the first two (1 left to read): Offworld Hotel & Resort by Dave Terruso, and Before The Last Star Falls by Lisa L. Tallabas.

I'm so sorry to hear about Rapa. I've checked a few times but thought the group was not active anymore, so I'm glad to hear there is activity again.
Welcome, DeeBeeCreative!

DBC... Yours is the first post in 2 years. Rapa died in Sept 2023 and things have not been the same on here since. She kept the group going for many years.
What have you read and loved recently? My current recommendations are:
We Begin At The End and How to Read A Book (A Novel)

I just finished And The Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini. If you enjoyed The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns you'll like this one as well... This tale revolves around one family over 50+ years and how a fateful decision changes the course of many lives. Highly recommended!
