I like to accrue a list of TBRs for Kobo Plus and Kindle Unlimited, and a couple of times a year I’ll get a month’s subscription to focus on those books. I’m enjoying my journey through both of the series, but there are lots of triggers, especially in the Wiltshire books. Each of the More Heat Than the Sun books, while building on what happened in the previous one, is really a self-contained story that could be read as a standalone. Unlike the Seven of Spades series, which unfolds one long story over the course of five books. There’s a lot going in these books and just when you think you know everything about these two men, Wiltshire pulls the rug out. I’m also making my way through John Wiltshire’s 9-book More Heat Than the Sun series, a very twisty-turny (and violent) story about a British Army veteran who now works for a shadowy covert operations group and his boss, a Danish diplomat married to a member of the British nobility. Recently, I’ve been binging on some gritty m/m romantic-suspense series: Cordelia Kingsbridge’s Seven of Spades, a 5-book series about a homicide detective and a bounty hunter (later, private investigator) who team up, professionally and romantically, while searching for a serial killer in Las Vegas. I keep my KU membership current because I read so many books from there, it pays for itself within the first three books every month. I made a quilt from a quilt pattern book I found on Hoopla called Quilting With a Modern Slant, and this quilt is one of my favorites. I love trying cookbooks out via library lending (usually in print) but I freaking love finding new quilt pattern books to browse through.Ĭraft-focused books like pattern collections and how-to guides can be expensive, and I really like digital browsing before I buy or borrow. My latest happy find is the number of cookbooks, quilting pattern books, and cross stitch books inside Hoopla and sometimes KU.

(I use this extension constantly and I love it.) The Library Extension browser add-onallows folks browsing Amazon to see what books are available at their library, or via library subscriptions like Hoopla. Library folks may also be using Hoopla Digitalto access ebooks and audiobooks, and services like Kanopy to watch scripted series and documentaries.

If you’ve got any of the subscription services like Scribd, Kindle Unlimited, or the super-sexy Canadians Only Kobo Plus, I want to know what your latest favorite is!Īnd this doesn’t mean only the paid subscriptions.
