Can confirm that Wintering is the perfect book for this time of year!

Welp. Looks like it’s time to read Wintering! I have been sleeping so much and feel so guilty about ~wasting~ time. But maybe I need the rest.

She says it's natural to need more sleep in the winter. It makes sense to me.

I immediately downloaded and read Hotel of Secrets based on this post and absolutely loved it. Thank you for the recommendation! It made a long flight go much more quickly. I really hope she writes more stories set in that world too.

The Percy Jackson tv series is soooo good. As a die hard fan of the books, which I didn't read until I was at university, I think it's a rock solid adaptation. The young actors are so sweet and the writers have made some really great updates to the story (Medusa's backstory for one). How are you finding it?

I'm really enjoying it! I just requested the first few from the library so I can do a re-read.

I am currently listening to Wintering on audio and enjoying it immensely despite it being mid-summer here in Australia. The heat has the same effect of wanting you to lie about reading, but under a fan instead of a blanket.

I can see that!

I read Hotel of Secrets last year on vacation and it was one of my favorite reads of the year! I hope more people discover this delightful historical fiction espionage romance family drama. And that Diana Biller writes another book set in this world.

THERE'S ANOTHER ONE?

I’m saying I hope there is! I’d read an entire series if she wrote it.

I was so excited about the possibility that I misread this.
