Conversations With Kav – Let’s Talk All Things Series + Giveaway

Trixie Belden was the first series I started collecting and I still have those books years (and years and years and…) later! We were a struggling immigrant family in Toronto but my dad somehow found a way to buy me a book every month. He carried around a list of all the different series I wanted to collect and dutifully crossed titles off as be bought them. Adult me now understands the sacrifices he made in order to purchase those books (he often went without lunch in order to save money) and I am so grateful for the way he encouraged reading throughout my childhood.

Fast forward decades and I’m still a voracious series reader. I love spotting connections between books, revisiting a favourite setting and getting to meet up with fave characters again. There’s a special kind of thrill that comes from following along with a series!

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

The reason series are on my mind this week is because Audible is having another mega sale (ends tonight at midnight, I think.) I mean, serious discounts, like 80% off! I spent hours going over my wishlist and clicking everything under $4 into my cart until it was so full that Audible wouldn’t let me add another book! That’s when I noticed my total was $170 and I realized I needed a purchasing strategy. 🙂 So I narrowed my shopping list down by concentrating on specific series, completing ones I’ve already started and buying the complete set of others. It was agonizing decision making and took the whole week. I also weeded out any books that I could get on hoopla. I finally made my modified purchase on Friday and my audible wishlist dropped from 23 pages to 14 pages! My TBR has grown rather drastically!

Anyway, so all this got me thinking about series and readerly quirks connected to series readings and whether there’s such a thing as series etiquette so I thought it would be a fun conversation starter.

Are you a ‘pick a series book at random’ reader or a ‘read the books in a series in order’ reader?

I used to be a random reader unless it was a continuous series but ever since I got into cozy mysteries I find I need to read the books in order. That’s especially true for continuity series as they can have plot and character development carry over from book to book. But if it’s a series where each book can be read as a standalone (like Love Inspired Suspense books for example) then I’ll mood read them in any order.

Do you wait until all the books in a series have released before beginning the series?

This idea had never occurred to me but I have run across some bookstagrammers and booktubers who actually do that. Even if an author only releases one book a year in a series. They will buy the books when they come out, but wait until the last book is published and then they’ll binge read the series. That’s just….mindboggling to me! I would never have the patience or the shelf-control 🙂 to wait that long, especially for a book by a favourite author!

Mind you, I’ve come across new-to-me series where all the books have already been published and I’ve found it quite fun to read the books back to back. I’m working my way through a fun cozy mystery series this way – The Deputy Donut Mysteries by Ginger Bolton – and I have to admit it’s fun not having to wait between books, especially where the slow burn romance is concerned!

How do you feel about multi-authored series?

I’ve enjoyed a few multi-authored series, usually in the contemporary rom/com genre. I like the continuity of setting and the overlapping characters and getting to see former heroes and heroines live out their happily every afters in the background of the next book.

One of the most ambitious multi-authored series I have read is the ‘Falling for Summer’ series published in 2024. Seven books set on the same island during the summer months so, in essence, each romance is happening at the exact same time and the authors were very clever about the way some key scenes overlapped. It’s hard to explain, but definitely would have been a great binge reading kind of series. I think the books released about every two weeks or so.

I picked up the rest of the ‘Only Magic in the Building’ books in the audible sale. I’ve read the first two out of eight and am excited to complete that series soon. Yay!

Do you have a preference for the type of series? Theme? Genre?

I have to admit, I love a good romantic suspense series. Especially where the common thread is family, siblings, say or an elite team of law enforcement that have a found family feeling. And I adore Irene Hannon’s Hope Harbor series, where the setting is very much a beloved character I get to visit in every book.

Carol Awards – Young Adult – Yes, it’s that time again. What are the Carol Awards, you ask? They are awards given out by American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) in recognition of outstanding Christian fiction in the previous calendar year. We’ll be looking at the finalists for each category every Monday through the summer. I’ll share the book titles and you get to choose the one you’d like to win if your name is drawn.

Between a Roquefort and a Hard Place

Restaurant owner Carly Hale Mitchell has to get her husband off the hook when he’s implicated in the suspicious death of a crooked coworker . . .

When the elderly owner of a historic mansion asks Carly to come visit and make one of her famous grilled cheese sandwiches, Carly can hardly say no. She loves spending time inside the fabled home, and she knows her husband will be at the grand old manse too, rewiring the electrical as part of larger renovations. But sparks fly when he gets into a shoving match with the contractor overseeing the project, and that puts him at the top of the suspect list when the contractor later falls to his death from the roof amid signs of foul play.

Desperate to clear her husband’s good name, Carly puts her restaurant work on the back burner while she tries to track down the real culprit. Thinking it must be someone on the renovation crew or an employee at the mansion, she begins grilling the suspects, only to learn that the victim had enemies throughout the community. Then another dead body is discovered at the mansion, and Carly has to approach the case from a whole new angle—just as the killer is angling to make her the next victim on their list . . .

Includes mouthwatering grilled-cheese sandwich recipes!

My Review:

Friendly Reader Suggestion: Have all the fixing for a grilled cheese sandwich on hand because this book will will stir up a craving and maybe some culinary creativity too! Love all the cozy vibes that come from Carly’s diner and loyal staff. Reilly has hit the perfect balance between cozy and mystery and I revelled in both.

An engaging mystery involving a recluse and some strange occurrences at her mansion. Spooky and fun and oh so puzzling. But, yay me, I figured parts of the mystery out before Carly and company. Not everything though, so I was still frantically trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together all the way to the end.

Love these characters, including a host of familiar faces that crop up in each book. There’s a real sense of found family, deepening relationships (friendship and otherwise) and I’m always eager to see what everyone is up to from one book to the next. As with most cozies, I think ‘The Grilled Cheese Mysteries’ are best read in order so that a reader can enjoy every delicious nuance of character and secondary plot development BUT, having said that, a newbie could jump in with this 7th book and still enjoy the read.

I listened to the audio edition narrated by Mia Gaskin who has been the voice of this series since the very beginning. She’s a perfect fit for these characters and I appreciate that continuity. We audio book listeners becomes as attached to our narrators as we do our authors!

My thanks to Dreamscape Media and Net Galley for providing me with an audio copy of this book.

Daughters of the Wreckage + Giveaway

A woman searching for answers in her own life finds them–and much more–in the wreckage and haunting stories of one of the most infamous maritime disasters in history.

Shortly before Christmas in 2018, Tess McCarthy, after years as a hard-working English teacher who never did anything out of the ordinary, flies to Western Australia’s remote Abrolhos Islands. She is in search of answers–both to the infamous Batavia shipwreck and her personal family crises.

Amsterdam, 1628. Saskia, an orphaned young Dutchwoman, boards Batavia with relatives, bound for a new and potentially dangerous life in the East Indies–only for her world to first collide with Aris Jansz, the ship’s taciturn under surgeon.

Tess, Saskia, and Aris–their lives linked by secrets that span generations–carry the baggage of past losses and the uncertainty of their futures. And, in the most unlikely circumstances, they may find qualities that echo through faith, acceptance, and love.

My Review:

Gritty and gut wrenching. An emotional roller coaster of a read that highlights a particularly brutal piece of maritime history off the coast of Australia. The author does an incredible job of bringing those 1628 events to life through a combination of fictional characters and actual historical figures.

In this dual timeline novel we follow three characters, Saskia and Aris in the 1600s and 2ist century Tess who is honouring the memory of her recently deceased father by finishing up a historical paper he was writing about the shipwreck of the Batavia.

And oh my, is that history riveting…but not for the faint of heart. So this is your mature content warning which includes graphic scenes of violence. I had the opportunity to listen to the audio narration of ‘Daughters of the Wreckage’ (more about that later) and I had to stop listening periodically and read a rom/com or a light cozy mystery to lighten my mood before continuing the audio book.

Koens’ writing is lyrical, her descriptions not only painting a picture in my mind, but filling me up with emotions. I definitely felt my way through this book, particularly through the historical timeline. Honestly, Tess’s struggles seemed so paltry when compared to what her ancestors endured, so I definitely connected with the 1600 era characters and events more.

I enjoyed the three POV storytelling, particularly with the distinctive voices of three narrators to bring these characters to life. Kristy Best, Jessica Spies and Angus McGruther gave amazing performances. In fact, given the number of foreign names, accents, etc, the narration really compliments Koens’ compelling storytelling.

My thanks to Thomas Nelson Fiction Audio and Net Galley for providing me with an audio copy of this book.

Hello August + Giveaway

It’s a Best Reads blog tradition! Celebrating the month’s new releases the first week of each month.

why?

Because I recently discovered that a book’s success or failure is often determined by first month sales! (Though I bet preorders play into that as well.) Publishing houses look at those stats to determine whether they’ll add on to a series or accept the author’s next manuscript! All that literary goodness hanging in the balance but for a month’s worth of sales! (This was a cozy mystery author, but I imagine all traditional publishers use the same ‘system’.) So I thought I should do my wee little bit to promote Christian Fiction.

how?

By hosting a special ‘Hello – insert month’ giveaway. It’s easy to play along. You just have to choose ONE of the August 2026 new releases on your TBR wishlist (must be Christian Fiction / Closed Door) and mention the title in a comment below (or email me at kavluvstoreadATyahooDOTca) If your name is drawn, that August release is the book you will win and we’re one book closer to keeping our fave authors in business.

When the Silence Breaks + Giveaway

When intelligence analyst Sarah Ellison learns of a deathbed confession connected to her brother’s murder, she’s determined to protect her remaining family. Under further investigation, she discovers the disclosed information points to a decades-old government secret buried deep in the Cascade Mountains. With this knowledge, she heads to the Pacific Northwest looking for a guide who knows the mountains like the back of their hand.

Ryder Goodwin, a wilderness guide and former Navy SEAL, quit guiding for the family business after his father’s death in a tragic mountain accident. At first, Ryder refuses to help Sarah, but he sees the trouble chasing her, and he can’t stand by while someone brings danger to this small-town mountain community.

Ryder and Sarah gear up to climb the mountain in a race against time and a looming winter storm. With her brother’s killer closing in, their search for answers now shifts to a survival mission. Their only chance to make it out involves trusting each other and confronting the truth no one wants them to find.

Be swept away in a rush of adrenaline with USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard’s series opener set in the Pacific Northwest.

My Review:

So much intrigue! And gasp out loud moments! Seriously I was, “Gasp! Nooooooo!” and “Gasp! Whhhaaaatttt?” and “Gasp! Don’t do it…..” and “Gasp! I knew it!” all the way through which made for an immensely fun and thrilling read.

Loved the mystery surrounding Sarah’s backstory in comparison to Ryder’s which we learn earlier on. It made such a compelling contrast and I was itching to know Sarah’s ‘all’! Dreading it too because I could see the potential for conflict raising its ugly head. And, oh my goodness, the surprises kept coming!

The mountain setting is incredible. Honestly, the mountain felt like an important secondary character. Ryder’s connection with the varied aspects of nature and weather and the secrets the mountain holds added even more interesting layers to an already complex story. So, lots of hair-raising adventuring to accompany the spine-chilling suspense elements. Oh, and the mystery! Decades old and absolutely lethal! If you looked up ‘unputdownable’ in the dictionary, this book cover would be the definition.

‘When the Silence Breaks’ was another audio ‘read’ for me and Natalia Payne’s narration enhanced my over all enjoyment of the story. She knows how to emote tension and endless emotion through her portrayal of these characters. Made for a riveting listening experience.

My thanks to RB Media and Net Galley for providing me with an audio copy of this book.

Dash Keane is about to become the biggest star in history.

As a poor teenager living in the Dregs, Dash Keane can only escape his dismal reality by competing in illegal rooftop races and staying up late to watch the timenet with his younger brother.

When there is an opportunity to participate in a competition set thousands of years in the past, he uses his rooftop racer skills to catch the eye of Mr. Myrtrym, head of entertainment for the massive Dominus Corporation.

It is the chance of a lifetime when Dominus Corp. hires Dash to be a timestar—the focus of his own series in which he must survive some of the most dangerous periods in history, including the Cretaceous period, feudal Japan, the Wild West, and the Golden Age of Piracy.

Darkfell by Amanda Wright – Quill and Flame Publishers – Giveaway Options: US – ebook, Canada – ebook or audible, International – ebook with a US Kindle account.

His is a life of books and peace…until a dying warrior’s touch ignites an ancient magic within his blood.

For years, Thom Darkfell has used his cartography skills to advise Lomair’s king of the country’s shifting borders. A valued academic, Thom is excluded from the military drafts until whispers of dark abominations and mass casualties reach the king’s ears. The resulting conscription thrusts Thom into Lomair’s losing army. A realist, Thom ignores the wild myths circling through the ranks—until a monster’s jaws snap through the folds of reality and crush a man before Thom’s eyes.

With his dying breath, the Realm Walker passes an impossible task to Thom. Hours later, the visions begin. The Creator, a deity Thom knows only from rituals spoken over meals and graves, appears to him while a girl with starlight in her blood calls from beyond the veil.

Armed with a cryptic map, a biscuit-loving tutor, and the brawn of his best friend, Thom sets out to find the star daughter and lock the barrier to bind the dark realm of Zakar.

If he fails, it will be the end of all.

Conversations with Kav – Mid-Year Freak-Out Tag + Giveaway

Can you believe that we are half way through the year already? I can’t! Clearly I’ve spent too much time with my nose buried in a book (well, that and packing and moving) to notice the months slipping past.

So now (if you are a bibliophile, and I know you are!) is the appropriate time to start panicking over books not yet read and commiserating over books that didn’t quite hit the spot and angsting over what exactly has been our favourite read so far this year and a host of other questions we avid readers take to heart during the dog days of summer. 🙂 In other words:

It’s time for the Mid-Year Freak Out Tag!

This is a fun (and sometimes frustrating) activity of bookish reflection. Feel free to participate in the comments by answering one (or more) of the questions and you’ll be entered in today’s giveaway:

The Questions:

Best book you’ve read so far.
~~Worst~~ Least favourite book you’ve read so far.
Best sequel you’ve read so far.
~~Worst~~ Least favourite sequel you’ve read so far.
New release you haven’t read yet but want to.
Most anticipated release for the second half of the year.
Biggest disappointment.
Biggest surprise.
Favorite new author.
Newest fictional crush.
Newest favorite character.
Book that made you cry.
Book that made you happy.
Most beautiful book you’ve bought so far this year (or received).
What books do you need to read by the end of the year?

One of the Best Books you’ve Read This Year – I have emphasized ‘one of’ because I hate picking favourites, but this one really stuck with me and I read it back in February plus it’s definitely on my reread list so fits here perfectly:

Least Favourite book you’ve read so far this year: I really don’t like creating negative bookish content. I tend to DNF books that I don’t connect with early on and don’t write reviews for them since they are largely unread so….nothing to see here. 🙂

One of the Best Sequels you’ve read this year: Intrigue, hidden agendas and so many secrets! The third ‘Hidden Bay’ book reads well as a standalone but I loved the connections I found to the other two books. And, really, who can resist an Elizabeth Goddard romantic suspense?!

Least favourite sequel you’ve read so far: Okay, it’s not that I didn’t like this sequel to Stealing Magnolias but what threw me was How to Sparkle takes place at the same time as Stealing Magnolias, so it’s kind of like filling in the gaps from Zoe’s perspective. The parallel timeline really threw me quite a bit. And, of course, you know how everything is going to play out because you read it first in Stealing Magnolias.

New Release you haven’t read yet but want to: (such a romantic cover!)

Most anticipate release for the second half of the year: (one of many…that I know of, anyway!)

Biggest disappointment: A gritty Icelandic mystery writer who knows how to spin a gripping suspense BUT, this first in the series should actually be the third book since the ending is so final (talk about sucker punching a reader!) and then the second and third books are flashbacks in time but, honestly, who wants to read about a character when you already know how their story ends? Not me.

Biggest Surprise: Totally out of my comfort zone – cozy romantasy? I was lured in by the sentient spider plant, he’s the perfect sassy and snarky sidekick (bwahahaha) and a librarian with a collection of spell books which are in danger. The hero is a kind of rancher with merhorses. Imaginative world building, cozy and sweet romance (close door, no language) and just an all round fun escape read.

Favourite New Author: (one of many)

Newest Fictional Crush: Redemptive hero, Atlas Camden!!!!!

Newest Favourite Character : Chief Inspector Armand Gamache from the Surete due Quebec. He has morals and standards. Adores his wife and treats everyone, even his suspects with compassion and dignity. A legendary Canadian classic that I’m just starting – only 19 books to go!

A book that made you cry:

Most Beautiful Book You’ve Bought or Received This Year: Not sure if this is supposed to mean physically beautiful, as in cover art or beautiful content – I’m going with the latter. This is such a beautiful, uplifting story!

What books do you need to read before the end of the year? ALL OF THEM! But I’ll go with what’s left from my 26 in 26.

Phew! That was hard…but fun to look back at half a year’s worth of reading. Lucky I keep exacting records. 🙂

Now it’s your turn. Care to share your thoughts on one (or more) of these questions? I’d love to hear them. Let’s get the conversation started!
