Hes guys? How was your February? I felt like it has gone really quickly in comparison with January – which took about 9 years to come and go! I can safely say that I have had a better month reading wise and I am so glad that I am finally getting out of my slump.

Book of the Month:
Society of Wishes by Elise Kova and Lynn Larsh
Published: January 29th by Silver Wing Press
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.
Josephina Espinosa makes her living as a hacker-for-hire in the Lone Star Republic, a remnant of the fractured U.S.A. That is, until the day she and her best friend are gunned down in a government raid.
With her dying breath, Jo uses magical lore passed down from her grandmother to summon a wish-granter. Her wish? To save her friend’s life. Except wishes have costs, and for Jo, the price is the erasure of her entire mortal existence.
Now, as the most recent addition to the mysterious Society of Wishes, Jo must form a new “life” alongside the seven other members, one of which being her savior himself. Living as an occupant of the Society’s lavish mansion should be quite the perk, but while it is furnished with everything its inhabitants could possibly need, it lacks one thing—freedom.
Her otherworldly identity crisis takes a backseat, however, when Jo learns that the friend she sacrificed everything for is headed down the same path to ruin. Jumping in head-first, Jo uses her newfound magical abilities to protect him, only to realize that the ripples of her actions have far-reaching consequences. When the Society’s aloof leader Snow decides to give her a taste of his own ancient magic, Jo discovers that there are threads woven into the tapestry of her new reality that reach far beyond the wishes she is now required to grant. Ones that, if tugged on, could mean the unraveling of the world itself.
How was your month? Feel free to leave links in the comments so that I can check them out 😀
Find me here:
I have been meaning to buy The Hazel Wood. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about it.
I knew it was coming in the fairyloot, so I didn’t grab a copy – I’m considering buying a normal copy as well because the cover 😍😍
The normal cover is black if I’m right! And, I agree it is gorgeous. 😍
Yes, with that amazing gold design 😍😍
February definitely went really quickly, I’m not sure if it’s just the way this year is going or because February is a short month overall but either way we’re one step closer to that warm summer weather and I can’t wait! 😀
I’m really glad to see you’re over your reading slump Lauren, and based on your haul you have some amazing books to get started on next month as well.
Great post, and I hope you have a brilliant March too! 🙂 ❤
I’m hoping it warms up soon! I’m fed up of minus 7 and snow! 😅
Me too! It was the worst and I’m just so glad that I’ve finally gotten over it 😅 I am definitely looking forward to picking some of these up – especially Hero at the Fall!
Thanks! I hope you have an amazing month! 😊❤️
Same here, we’ve got so much snow here and it’s supposed to be spring, like why?!
Oh Hero at the Fall is amazing, a great ending. I’m hoping to have my review for it up soon.
That’s all right, and thanks Lauren. 🙂 ❤
It’s currently snowing over here and I just feel like crying XD It’s minus 8 with a feel of -13, it should not be snowing on top of that!
Oooo, thats great to hear! I’ll need to bump it up the TBR! 😀
Ohh, that’s even colder than we have it here, but not by that much I don’t think (I’m praying for the warmer spring weather right now!)
Yay! 😀
That’s a pretty good list. Quite a few books added to your collection too. All the best for March reading.
Thanks! Yes! I found a second hand website not too long ago and their very good condition is basically like new – so I love browsing through every once in a while!
Oh my goodness. I’d have to stay far from that!
Right? XD My husband left me unattended in a book shop yesterday and then wondered why I came out with a book… when I said I was only going to look … He clearly doesn’t know me very well 😛
Hahaha. Such questions need not be asked 😉
