Cabinet Jack (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #16) by J.L Bryan

"Close your doors and cabinets tight, or Jack will climb out to see you tonight."

This investigation leads to the team to a former railroad stop in Timbermill, Georgia. Having fallen into disrepair after its boom era faded, it is coming into its second life. Unfortunately, with all the new businesses and families moving in, they aren't privy to the urban legend of past generations. These legends focus on a supernatural figure who emerges through doors, cabinets, and cabinets that are left open at night. Once a couple relocated to a local antique home, restoring it in this hopefully up and coming town, this urban legend is stalking them and their children. They turn to the team to help defeat this evil and finally rid it of the area.

This has to be hands down the scariest book so far in this series. It was extremely unique and had my skin absolutely crawling by the end of it. Not only does it include a powerful supernatural urban legend that is in control of all the little children spirits it's killed over the years, but there are also actual ghost children just hanging out in the house with the youngest child. Not to mention the possession and you know cold cases of local missing children. The banter between the team is once again incredible and the character growth in every book is so well done. I can't wait for the next book!

The Hidden Letters by Lorna Cook

"It's people like your brother and me, being handed a weapon and told to kill someone we don't even know, who we'd probably get along with in everyday life. And all because someone in a gilded throne or behind a big desk decides that's what we have to do." On the brink of World War One, a forbidden romance is blooming between debutante Cordelia and the landscape architect Issac. Cordelia finds herself intrigued with learning how to cultivate the garden in preparation for when the men are called away to war. Issac, of course, teaches her in private and their forbidden love story began. Cordelia's parents find out and her mother is absolutely horrified to find her daughter digging in dirt, but reluctantly agree to let her continue her work. Even going as far as coming up with the idea to expand their garden to aid the estate and surrounding areas. Issac continues to teach her through letters when he is on the battlefield, but their correspond...

Finna by Nino Cipri (LitenVerse #1)

" It explores queer relationships and queer feelings, capitalism, and accountability, labor and love, all with a bouncing sense of humor and a commitment to the strange." This delightful multiverse sci-fi story is absolutely incredible. This universe there is a knock off Ikea prone to spontaneous wormholes and customers get lost or eaten in. Which is exactly what happens, except it is up to two employees who had just broken up to go inside the wormhole and track down the customer or the closest thing to them. This was such a wonderful read and perfect for finishing in one sitting. I wish there was more in this entire universe, it just seems so much fun, and that the possibilities are endless. I've passed this book to those I love, and I'm so excited for them to get to experience this universe!
