My next suggestion is the front desk!

The title of this book is Front Desk by Kelly Yang. It's a series book and I really wanted to read the book 2. The main character here is Mia Tang and she lives in a motel with her parents. Mia Tang wants to be a writer but she can't because she and her parents are immigrants. The genres of this book are Middle-grade, realistic fiction, historical fiction, and family. The book is based on the story or life of the author because the author too works in a motel when she was young:)

Nice! You know what'd funny? I've actually read Small Spaces before and really enjoyed it, too.

Thank you for the recommendation!

Now, that I'm thinking about I actually haven't read Dead Voices. I'm not sure why. I do remember starting it, but then stopping for some reason. I'll have to pick it back up and read it through at some point.

Happy reading! :techie-studyingbrown:

Have you read The Folk of the Air trilogy by Holly Black? It's a young adult fantasy trilogy, and I really enjoyed that one. I actually started rereading the trilogy, but had to pause for a bit because of how busy life became. :lol: Hopefully, I'll be able to continue rereading it soon!

One of my favorite books is the Paranormal Cozy Mystery, A Witch in the Woods Series written by Jenna St James. The first book is titled Deadly Claws.

Shalya Loci has retired from chasing supernatural bad guys and returned to her home, Enchanted Island, to work as a game warden. She soon finds her life is not the quiet peaceful time she had hoped for. Her mother and grandmother are involved in her life and her grandmother adds a touch of humor to the story, while Sheriff Stone adds a bit of potential romance. And a story like this needs a special and unique character like Needles, a pink, miniature, flying armadillo whose job is to protect Shayla and report back to her father the King. There are mysteries and crimes to solve and Shayla is up to the task.

The genre is paranormal mystery and the audience is primarily adult women.
