Today is day 13 of my countdown to 2024. Using a series of prompts each day I will post a book title that I believe fits the prompt. The aim is to highlight as many books as possible that I read from 2023 and shine the spotlight on them once again (although for some prompts I will be looking at future reads). A list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2024.
Today’s prompt: Feast – a book that was magnificent

The Whispering Muse by Laura Purcell. I loved this. The setting, the plot, the writing, the dark gothic feel, the characters, the strange blending in of theatre and supernatural elements with such a deft touch. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
I need to read this, although I don’t think it’s been released in the US yet.
Really? Wow – I’m so used to this being the other way around usually.
Lynn 😀
The title is beautiful.
You already saw mine, in same post as the previous one:
Yeah, I never really thought about it but it is a good title.

I’m still waiting for the US publisher to put this out! ARRGH, what’s taking them?!
Yeah, what is taking them?
Curious.
