Happy New Year, fellow book lovers! As we dive into January, I'm excited to share my TBR list filled with intriguing reads that promise to inspire and entertain.
First up is Midnight’s Child (The Midnight Series Book 2) by Tom Kane. This gripping historical war thriller merges high-stakes espionage with the fierce, complex journey of Jessie Fordham through occupied France during World War II. As a sequel to Walking Away from Midnight, it plunges readers back into a world brimming with danger, suspense, and emotional depth. I can't wait to get lost in its fast-paced narrative full of unexpected twists!
Next, I'm looking forward to The Hangman's Master by Elyse Hoffman. This historical fantasy blends the horrors of WWII with a supernatural twist, exploring themes of vengeance, redemption, and power, all wrapped in Hoffman’s signature gripping writing.
A Kestrel Circles by G. Michael Smith offers a unique take on the detective genre. Mathew Brown, also known as Augustus Cervantes, has a talent for finding missing treasures, aided by a mysterious part of his mind he calls "the canvas." When he’s hired to recover a family heirloom, a seemingly impossible task, he unwittingly attracts the attention of a local crime syndicate. What unfolds is a thrilling chase across Europe filled with murder and mayhem, leading to an unpredictable outcome.
Finally, The Serpent Woman by S.Z. Estavillo introduces us to a chilling serial killer dubbed the Serpent Woman, who uses her insidious tattoo and lethal methods to exact her brand of vigilante justice. LAPD Detective Anaya Nazario and FBI Supervising Special Agent Blake Huxley, grappling with their complicated romantic history and a baby on the way, must work together to stop her. As they navigate this dark thriller, they'll confront harrowing themes of sex trafficking, child abuse, and graphic violence, ultimately questioning who truly deserves justice. Reader discretion is advised.
Join me as I embark on this literary adventure this month! What are you reading in January?
