FFAF: Did I Read It? Fall 2025 TBR

My Fall 2025 TBR

1. Galloway's Gospel by San Rebellin
2. The Final Gambit by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
3. The Girl from Devil's Lake by J.A. Jance
4. Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas
5. The School for Thieves by Peter Burns

Did I read them?

So funnily enough, this is mad embarrassing for me lmao. That said, let's get into it.

I did not read Galloway's Gospel, but it is still on my physical TBR. Maybe I will read it this fall.

Even worse for me was The Final Gambit... I still have not even finished the book before it in the series. I love this series and basically all of her books in general. As such, I am terrible about saving them for "a rainy day" that seems to never come. 

In the case of The Girl from Devil's Lake, it is also still on my physical TBR. I may get to it in April though as it can fulfill a prompt for the Magical Readathon.

Finally I can feel a tiny bit better about myself. I read and gave Cemetery Boys 5 stars. It was fantastic. I was even sent another book by this author because I loved that one so much!

Lastly, I do not even recognize the title of The School for Thieves. I decided to look it up and am even more confused. Was it a lapsed library hold as it definitely wasn't an ARC.

 

Outro

Welp, this was not a fun time for me XD at least I read one. Even if I also did not recognize one. This is why my TBRs I make now are all ARCs or books I already have out at the library. That is really the only way I will ever stick to it.

 Free for All Friday: NetGalley TBR Updates (Sept 2025)

Intro

I have been quite the user of NetGalley lately, so my TBR is stacking up (at least for me). This extra sucks because I had *just* gotten my review ratio up to 81% when I got a bulk bunch of approvals. Now it is 77%, which still isn't too bad. Let's dive into what books are actually there!

My TBR

• A Killer Wedding by Joan O'Leary (Sept 2025)
• Last Chance Live! by Helena Haywoode Henry (Oct 2025)
• In Love's Key, Reprised by Guri Nojiro (Sept 2025)
• To Cage a Wild Bird by Brooke Fast (Mar 2026)
• Get Over It, April Evans by Ashley Herring Blake (Feb 2026)

Outro

I am quite excited for all of these, honestly. The variety is honestly my favorite part! Each of these should be a spectacular read, so keep an eye out over the next few months to see my thoughts on these! What is your NetGalley TBR looking like?
