January alternated between flying by and being slow (mostly when I was at my part time job, LOL). I had some reading duds, but overall I think I had a decent reading month. I read 16 books and DNFed one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

My Review:
After reading The Extraordinary Deaths of Mrs. Kip by Sara Brunsvold, I could not wait to read The Divine Proverb of Streusel. The stories could not be more different.

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is new-to-me authors I discovered in 2022.

So, I am curious how many I read as well 😀Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

My review:
The Extraordinary Deaths of Mrs. Kip is Sara Brunsvold's debut novel. However, everything about this novel screams seasoned writer. I can't wait to see what Brunsvold writes next.
