What book did you read or are currently reading?
I just finished Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire. This was my second time reading it. My goal is to read the whole series by purchasing the mass market copies, one by one, for my future birthdays and Christmases. There are 18 books, so far, in this series!

Share what genre(s) your book would fall under.
This is urban fantasy, mixed with some mystery and thriller.

What was your favorite and/or least favorite scene. Please disclose spoilers.
Honestly, I wasn't a fan of the amount of near-death incidents, but I did love how October, the protagonist, handled herself throughout the book. She seems genuine and an overall great character to be inside her head.

Are you planning to read more from this author?
Yes, yes, and and yes!

What is the target audience?
I would say young adult to adult who enjoy fantasy-based novels.

Would you recommend this read?
Yes, I would! I give it 5 out of 5 stars. The fact that I read it twice says a lot!
