February was a strange month for me. I didn’t have much time to read until I spent a long weekend away with my family. Then I binge-read 5 books. I love weekends like that.

Fatal Goddess (Shifted Fates #3) by Vasilisa Drake | DNF/1.5 out of 5
My favorite read of the month was the Deals with Demons series. I’m not sure which book was my favorite, but the series as a whole was really well done and kept me glued to the pages. My least favorite read was Fatal Goddess by Vasilisa Drake. I ended up DNF’ing it 59% through because the characters were all TSTL.
Casee,
FYI: the Gleam Widget is missing.
To answer your question, some favorite February reads were ~
— the first four An Elemental Blessings Novels by Sharon Shin
— three books by author Jackie North: The Blacksmith and the Ex-Con, The Wrangler and the Orphan, and The Cowboy and the Rascal
— All Rocs Wise & Wonderful (The Portal Storms Book 1) by T.M. Baumgartner
— Colony One by T.L. Ford
Least favorite books I simply did not finish.
I read Simply The Best by Susan Elizabeth Phillips and enjoyed it. It’s a good addition to the Chicago Stars series.
I read 7 books in February. My favorite was STRAIGHT CRUSH by Devon Doe, a fake-relationship/bi-awakening/house-renovation m/m rom-com (although there was enough serious stuff to keep things from being too fluffy).
I liked all the books I finished reading, but I did have to DNF CE Ricci’s HEAD ABOVE WATER, an m/m stepbrother romance that was tedious and implausible.
I was talked into trying to read Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett — again. Pillars of the Earth was a DNF — again. I think this is the 3rd time.
