    Four Treasures of the Sky

    Thank you to Libro.FM for the #gifted audiobook of Four Treasures of the Sky by Jenny Tinghui Zhang, in exchange for an honest review. #partner You know I love an amazing debut novel and I have one for you today that is topping my list for 2022. Four Treasures of the Sky by Jenny Tinghui Zhang is everything I love in a debut novel. It is heartbreaking, endearing, educational and a true work of art.

    High Octane Thrillers

    I recently discovered a new to me sub-genre of thrillers that I have been thoroughly enjoying. High octane thrillers are action packed, pulse pounding thrillers that, in my opinion, read like a movie script and would be amazing book to film adaptations. I have curated a list of books that fit within the high octane thriller sub-genre. Along with a synopsis of each, I have included who I imagined playing the lead protagonist, as well as a link to my review. (I LOVE when a book
