    2. The Oslo Conspiracy sounds really good! I'll have to check it out. And wow 22 books! I have only read 20 books in a month and that was back in April. I doubt I'll ever go above that number. I hope October treats you just as good so you can keep reading :)

    3. As always, I am in awe of the number of books you manage to read each month. Reading is your superpower! Teach me your way, O Wise One. :) Kitchens of the Great Midwest sounds so interesting. Anytime food is a focus in a book... yeah, that's always a good thing. I've read Girl by Blake Nelson but sadly remember nothing about it . According to GoodReads I read it in 2002 so it's been a while.

    7. Wow, you read a ton this past month! That's great. I hope to read more this month. September was a bit busy with vacation and a new job, so I didn't get TONS read.

    I love this trope, sub-genre, setting: My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend

    I Love This Trope, Sub-Genre, Setting is a new feature on my blog in which I discuss a trope, sub-genre or setting that I love and tell you about books that are shining examples of said trope, sub-genre or setting.  Feel free to play along and please let me know about your favorite books in this realm and whether you like this trope, sub-genre and/or setting as much as I do! Today I am spotlighting the trope of:  My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend , which I would define as any book where the heroine either has a crush on or falls for her brother's best friend or her best friend's brother. I have to confess that I love this trope in nearly all of its iterations!  I have a younger brother so I never got to crush on any of his friends but it's fun reading about that and it's equally as fun as reading about falling for your best friend's brother -- instant sisters!  I know there are a ton...
