  • Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

    According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.

    So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon—both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle—are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture.

    And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist . . .

  • Bad to the Crone by Amanda M Lee - Paranormal Cozy Mystery. - I've read almost all of her books. They tend to be silly, snarky, and fun. The lead character is usually a strong female with lots of snark and sass. They are fairly quick reads and you can get a free trial of kindle unlimited and try them for free.

  • The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman - Fiction I-I am not sure what genre this is exactly yet, but I have enjoyed all but one of his books. American Gods didn't thrill me, but others seem to have liked it.

  • To Catch Her Death - Boone Brux - Paranormal Romance - I'm throwing this one out because she is a friend. I have a couple of friends that are writers so I will probably suggest some of their books, both because they are friends,and because I love their stuff.

  • No One Ever Asked by Katie ganshert. Looks more relatable than the last book lol. If you go on amazon theres an excerpt available to read.

    Challenging perceptions of discrimination and prejudice, this emotionally resonant drama for readers of Lisa Wingate and Jodi Picoult explores three different women navigating challenges in a changing school district–and in their lives.

    When an impoverished school district loses its accreditation and the affluent community of Crystal Ridge has no choice but to open their school doors, the lives of three very different women converge: Camille Gray–the wife of an executive, mother of three, long-standing PTA chairwoman and champion fundraiser–faced with a shocking discovery that threatens to tear her picture-perfect world apart at the seams. Jen Covington, the career nurse whose long, painful journey to motherhood finally resulted in adoption but she is struggling with a happily-ever-after so much harder than she anticipated. Twenty-two-year-old Anaya Jones–the first woman in her family to graduate college and a brand new teacher at Crystal Ridge’s top elementary school, unprepared for the powder-keg situation she’s stepped into. Tensions rise within and without, culminating in an unforeseen event that impacts them all. This story explores the implicit biases impacting American society, and asks the ultimate question: What does it mean to be human? Why are we so quick to put labels on each other and categorize people as “this” or “that”, when such complexity exists in each person?

  • The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. It's a post-dystopian sci fi. From Amazon:

    Follow a motley crew on an exciting journey through space—and one adventurous young explorer who discovers the meaning of family in the far reaches of the universe—in this light-hearted debut space opera from a rising sci-fi star.

    Rosemary Harper doesn’t expect much when she joins the crew of the aging Wayfarer. While the patched-up ship has seen better days, it offers her a bed, a chance to explore the far-off corners of the galaxy, and most importantly, some distance from her past. An introspective young woman who learned early to keep to herself, she’s never met anyone remotely like the ship’s diverse crew, including Sissix, the exotic reptilian pilot, chatty engineers Kizzy and Jenks who keep the ship running, and Ashby, their noble captain.

    Life aboard the Wayfarer is chaotic and crazy—exactly what Rosemary wants. It’s also about to get extremely dangerous when the crew is offered the job of a lifetime. Tunneling wormholes through space to a distant planet is definitely lucrative and will keep them comfortable for years. But risking her life wasn’t part of the plan. In the far reaches of deep space, the tiny Wayfarer crew will confront a host of unexpected mishaps and thrilling adventures that force them to depend on each other. To survive, Rosemary’s got to learn how to rely on this assortment of oddballs—an experience that teaches her about love and trust, and that having a family isn’t necessarily the worst thing in the universe.

    I love that even though it's set in a sort of dystopian future there's a lot of humor and love in the story. There is some heartbreak and sadness but it's mostly wrapped up in a group of people who truly care about each other. I love that all the love scenes (not erotic) are all consensual.

    Btw for anyone who is interested, I just saw on my front page that the author of this book is currently doing an AMA in r/books
