Just Bean Bookish

Decided it was time to jump back into a thriller/mystery because it had felt like a while.

I figured I would help my reading goal a little bit this year by making a list of some of the books I am excited to get to in 2025!

Even though I finished this book in 2024, I just had to talk about it!

Just going over some statistics from the year, from my podcast to my Goodreads stats and looking ahead to the new year!

Spilling the beans on one I have been meaning to get to for a while!

If you are looking for some books to cozy up with this holiday season, I have some recommendations for you! I talk about four books that I have read, and mention some others that I plan on getting to before the end of the year hopefully!

Such a robust topic, that I simply must talk about it again. Apologies. Link to the article about the worst book to screen adaptations determined by statistics: https://thetab.com/2024/11/07/the-verdicts-in-these-are-officially-the-worst-ever-book-to-screen-adaptations

I talk all about my experience reading this book by an author I have heard great things about recently, Fredrik Backman

A light little romance book review, as well as mentioning some other recent reads of mine, some recommendations for fall, and then at the end of the episode I touch on some of my winter TBR.

I take on this science fiction book and talk about how it compares to the recent screen adaptation. It is always interesting to see how they decide to go about bringing the world to the big screen.

Started my read of this YA mystery series!

Though this author is known for a lot of his novels in the horror genre, this interesting tale of time travel doesn't fall into the same genre, even though time travel could be seen by some to be a nightmare.

A nice little bonus episode for this Halloween day. This is an episode where I talk about my paper written about Frankenstein and what my thoughts are today. If you are my sister's co-worker, shout out to you lol.

Loved this cozy mystery, and it really gave me my fix of the fall baking show vibe!

I recently read this new release, sequel to Better Than the Movies , and I share my thoughts about them both.

Another mystery thriller's beans spilled today with this wild ride of a book.

Not every book is worth a re-read, so listen to hear some of my criteria!

This quickly became one of my favorite reads of the year!

What is more fall than a murder mystery? Tried to pull myself further out of my slump by listening to this one, and it feels good to be on a roll!

Know what you are getting into! Be aware of the difference between an open-door romance and a closed-door romance, because somehow I got confused... but listen to hear my thoughts on this little novella!

I am in a slump... a reading slump. Let's deal with it.

To break up the episodes a bit from so many spill the beans, I thought I would record a little episode where I just catch you up on some of my recent book thoughts and where I am at.

Diving into this book that I have heard SO much about for SO long.

Combo ep of some of my recent reads, my ratings and whether or not I would recommend.

This week I talk about this thriller novel, my rating, and whether or not I would recommend it to read.
