I enjoyed the information that spanned the 3,000 years of ancient Egypt's history. I enjoyed the mythology as well as the stories about the lives of people living in ancient Egypt. I did sometimes have trouble understanding where within the 3,000 year period the different stories were taking place.
I thought the music and audio effects were really well done.

Childhood friends June and Levi both go viral for being very publicly broken up with. When Levi returns to their hometown where June is running a tea shop, they decide to pretend to date to turn the situation around for their own benefit. With all their history, it's hard to for the dating to stay fake.
This was a fun romance that also touched on reconnection, community, and grief.

If you enjoyed Prue's video series, you'll enjoy this. It's a collection of funny vaguely insulting statements with descriptions of how (or why) to use them for maximum effect. I thought the ending was particularly strong when Prue describes patriarchy as a series of boxes we're all put in.

Aliens have spent three decades destabilizing Earth and just as they are ready to complete their takeover, they find instability within their own ranks. Told primarily from the point of view of the alien group, I didn't always understand what their goals were, but I found the various intrigues interesting. I was gorier than I was prepared for, depicting scenes of torture.

This is a fun and fascinating book full of facts about axolotl. I love this book for rides in the car because it's easy to turn off and pick back up between each quick fact.

Bran has a magical gift that draws him towards his birth home of Cornwall and towards Merryn, a woman who no longer remembers who she is or what her gift is.
I loved that a lot of the plot centered around tensions between England and France at the time, since so many romance novels set during that period gloss over that reality. I also thought the magic was very interesting. I did find Merryn's amnesia very frustrating, which ended up making the romance not really work for me.
