📚 Weekend Reads Check-In 📚

It’s a slightly chaotic reading weekend over here — which feels very on-brand. I just finished Mythos by Stephen Fry and really enjoyed it: clever, funny, and packed with mythological gems. Fry brings warmth and wit to even the most violent of gods.

Here’s what’s in the current rotation:

📖 A House With Good Bones by T. Kingfisher (47%) – creeping unease, southern gothic touches, and unexpected humour. I love the tension building in this one.

🐺 Bitten by Kelley Armstrong (69%) – a re-read and still one of my comfort books. I have so much love for Elena, Clay, Jeremy, and the messy, protective pack dynamic. Werewolf drama perfection.

🍃 Windswept by Annie Worsley (30%) – gentle, slow, reflective nature writing. I keep dipping in and out between heavier reads.

🧬 Ancestors by Alice Roberts (74%) – loving this one. It’s thoughtful and packed with fascinating detail, but also weirdly tender in the way it treats its ancient subjects.

💋 The Kiss Curse by Erin Sterling – haven’t started it yet, but very much in the mood for something witchy and playful. I was pleasantly surprised by The Ex Hex and hoping this one brings the same cozy magic.

🧟‍♂️ Frankenstein by Mary Shelley – this one’s hovering in the background. I’ve been craving something darker and more emotionally intense, and I’m pretty sure Shelley’s masterpiece is just the thing.

Anyone else balancing five books and still flirting with starting something new? Or is that just me?
