Potions & Prejudice: A Cozy Fantasy Romance by Tee Harlowe, the first book in the Moonflower Witches series. It has a cozy, sweet vibe with a lot of humour. I was a bit startled when it suddenly turned sexy-times, but this was an enjoyable retelling of Pride and Prejudice (venturing quite widely from the original plot).
The Witch Roads by Kate Elliott was every bit as good as I’d hoped! Great world building, mature characters (living with their choices, not afraid to make new choices) and a fast-paced plot.
The Healing Skies by Seth Ring. I don’t read a huge amount of litrpg, but I’m enjoying the Iron Tyrant series. This is the third book and it has some twists to it that I definitely didn’t expect. Very cool.

I’m now rereading Katherine Addison’s Goblin Emperor.
And imagining Hexeraid played as a sort of Australian rules football -with each of the teams having their own ball to get through their opposing team’s goal at the opposite poing.
Oh my gosh! AFL with magic would be awesome!!! You have completely broken my brain which now wants to see it.
In June, I read more historical mysteries than anything else because I host the Mid-Summer HistMyst on my YT channel. If you enjoy listening to audiobooks, the performer/reader for The Missing Diamond by Lynn Morrison and Anne Radcliffe is one of the best.
Oh my goodness, this is you??? Wow!
