The Agathas by Kathleen Glasgow and Liz Lawson
The mystery. The intrigue. The Agatha Christie references.
Me taking notes of all the details because I need to be smart:

Also, I see you potential set-up for sequel.

Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez
*sees that the love interest is a carpenter...sign me up.
It's the baby goat in pajamas and the roo-rooing dog for me....
The snark. Is just. My favorite.
Also the commentary on how communities that are rural and less-populated tend to have less access to affordable medical care and just suck it up and muddle through.
The statistics on domestic abuse and how the most dangerous time for a victim is when they leave.
ER doctors are just fantastic--cause like...they have to think on their feet and stuff and deal with people on their worst days.
All the small town vibes, and the small business vibes and the handcrafted.
It's just fluff and rainbows and I love it. It's a Hallmark movie in a book, I knew what I was getting into.

All My Rage by Sabaa Tahir
Does the racism and Islamophobia bring out all my rage...yes.
I just wanna protect my babies who are just trying their best.
Sabaa Tahir makes me feel so many things and I was....like...so stressed out.
I cried at least twice.

Rabbit Girls by Anna Ellory
After the Berlin wall falls in 1989, Miriam, who has been living in East Berlin, goes back to West Berlin to care for her dying father. She is fleeing an abusive husband, and is escaping both him and an abusive regime.
In caring for her father, she finds an Auschwitz tattoo on his wrist. She never knew he was in a concentration camp, so starts looking for answers to questions she never knew she had. Her mother is dead, but in her belongings she finds a uniform from a prison camp. Sewn into the linings she finds letters from a mysterious woman named Frieda.
She desperately needs answers, but her father is semi-comatose, and unable to tell her what she needs to know. Will she be able to unravel the secrets of her parent's past?
