There’s way more ‘pretty creepy’ than there is pretty in this stack. The one seriously pretty cover is What We Are Seeking. Although Alibi by Accident, Lost in the Summer of ’69, The Paris Match and The Pie & Mash Detective Agency certainly have cute covered. (Ahem, so to speak, pun intended and all that.)
Creepy is creeping all over this stack, between Headlights, Meat Bees and Wretch. The cover of Meat Bees is particularly shudder inducing, isn’t it?
The books I’m most curious about in this stack are the aforementioned Lost in the Summer of ’69 and The Pie & Mash Detective Agency, while the book I’m most looking forward to is obviously Fury in Death. But I also have one in the stack that I’m looking both forward and back to, and that’s At Star’s End. I read it over a decade ago, when it first came out, and loved it. It’s a science fiction romance that I’ve repeatedly referred to over the years because it simply epitomized the genre. The author just got her rights back and is republishing the entire Phoenix Adventures series (YAY!) with new covers and some added – or added back – content. I’m definitely looking forward to rereading these long-standing favorites!

The Pie and Mash Detective Society is such a fun title for what I assume (hope – otherwise, awful marketing) is a cozy mystery!
It had BETTER be a cozy mystery or my review is going to be EXTRA salty. The blurb SAYS it is, so I have hope!

Ooh another great selection to add to my TBR list! Thank you Marlene!
Now you’ve got me curious. Which book(s) caught your eye?

Meat Bees is certainly something 😂 lots of other interesting covers too.
Have a great weekend!
Yeah, the Meat Bees cover is extra something. One of those times I’m glad I read ebooks because I wouldn’t want THAT staring out at me from a bookshelf. Have a terrific week!

I like the cover of You and Me. It looks like you have a nice mix of books to read. Have a wonderful weekend!
I do like that one. I also remember when books on tape were on actual tape and something that would happen in my car while I was driving. So a bit of a real life nightmare mixed with what looks like a cute book. Have a great week!

The cover of Meat Bees made me shudder. It looks like an eclectic bunch of books. I hope you enjoy all of these, Marlene.
Me too. Still shuddering. But some cozier stuff, too. Thankfully. Have a good week!

What We Are Seeking does have a really cool cover, but I love the colors for The Paris Match. I won’t comment on the creepy ones. LOL. Have a great weekend. 🙂
The Paris Match cover just exemplifies springtime in Paris the way we all imagine it, doesn’t it? I’m looking forward to that one when I need something light. Have an excellent week yourself!
