But I kinda blazed through this one once I got started, discovering a story with two nice hotties who are just trying to figure it out & be their best, happiest selves. Josephine & Will were once in each other’s orbit thanks to Will’s twin, Zoe, who was Josephine’s best friend. But after Josephine & Zoe’s best friendship imploded, Josephine & Will don’t see each other again for 9 years. When they are reunited, it’s through a literal crash that turns into Will being Josephine’s business consultant. Will is a recovering finance bro-ish (he was never a total jerk!), who wants to make up to Josephine. He respects her boundaries while also being as devastatingly attractive as possible. Josephine is a business & creative force who’s overworked & overwhelmed & has to figure out more of those boundaries for herself. With so much sweetness & respect, Perfect Fit shows how lovers can be there for each other, through physical & emotional distress. Will is a patient mountain & Josephine is killing at life, & when they come together it’s a mutual appreciation-fest of the emotional & physical variety. 4.5⭐️.

I mean that in the best possible way. Serial Killer Games by Kate Posey kept me on my TIPPY TOES. My mind was repeatedly blown & the twists & turns my brain & heart took were wild. The book starts off with two dark weird-os (said affectionately) being dark & weird with each other. I had no idea how dark Jacob & Dolores actually were, if they were killers, how far they might go. & then they have this fantastic, vaguely antagonistic but not really, series of power play moves in their office setting that had me internally giggling. Serial Killer Games is twisted & fun & dark & morbid but then it becomes very sweet too (how did that happen?!!!) & my heart was so engaged. I can’t describe this book bc the reader’s experience is such a big part of it. You’re supposed to go on this big guessing game, I think, & it’s unsettling & fun & surprising. The best combo I can think of is this book is Addams Family with dashes of Miss Congeniality haha. 4.5⭐️. Out 04/29.CWs: sexual predation, murder, genetic neurological disease, loss of spouse, assisted death
Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary e-ARC. All opinions provided are my own. This blog post includes affiliate links. Working-class historical leads make my heart go pitter-patter & Gabriel & Eddie are delicious ones. Enticed by an offer of financial independence, Effie decides to help bring down a deserving man. Gabriel doesn’t like the aforementioned bad man, but he does want the bad man safe so that he can continue blackmailing him. In Rules for Ruin, Mimi Matthews really makes me feel the attraction between Effie & Gabriel. He knows what he needs to do, but meanwhile there’s a gorgeous, mysterious figure named Effie he can’t get enough of. The chemistry between them is so good, steadily building in an intricate dance that leads beautifully to a much-desired HEA. This one is so good, you all! 4.5⭐️.

These are the vibes & the book is Greenteeth by Molly O’Neill.
Do you want a book about a monster with a heart? Jenny Greenteeth is an admitted monster who lives in a lake near a medieval village. One day, a woman who’s suspected of being a witch is thrown in, & rather than eat her, Jenny ends up accompanying her on her quest to Faerie & back. There’s something evil in the village. This fantasy has so much going for it: / a burgeoning friendship between unlikely quest mates / a lonely monster reckoning with right & wrong / a small group of people trying to save the day / faeries who are sometimes helpful, sometimes challenging, etc depending on their whims bc faeries are like that Sound good? Greenteeth is out on 02/25/25. 4.5⭐️. Out now!
