My favorite read of the month was Crowbones by Anne Bishop. It wasn’t my favorite book of the series, but it was a lovely read. Creepy and entertaining. My least favorite read of the month was House in Hiding by Jenny Schwartz. I didn’t dislike it, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the other books in the series.

I also liked Crowbones, Holly, but not as much as other books in the series.
Favorites in November include the graphic novel Fangs by Sarah Andersen (this made me laugh!), a reread of the Class 5 series by Michelle Diener, and Nora Goes Off Script by Annabel Monaghan.
I’ve no least favorite to mention as I abandoned many a book that did not appeal.
Don’t see the Gleam
I didn’t do a lot of reading in November, except for Sarah Morgan’s new book, Snowed in for Christmas. I always enjoy her Christmas stories.
Great job, ladies! Happy December!
I read eight books in November. My favorite was HOW TO FAKE IT IN HOLLYWOOD by Ava Wilder. It was an excellent book about how a fake relation between an actor and an actress gradually becomes real, but then gets undermined by addiction and enabling. Serious and angsty—as soon as I finished it, I put it on my favorites of 2022 list. I didn’t read anything I really disliked.
I liked Dirty Groom by Mira Lyn Kelly and Waiting on Forever by Claudia Connor.
worst book: The Tycoon’s Revenge by Melody Anne
The Bookstore Sisters by Alice Hoffman was interesting
Ali Hazelwood’s Love on the Brain was one of my favorite reads despite the fact that I am not a fan of first person. I DNF a fall anthology with contemporary authors for the second time.
