wednesday books thank you for reading

Thank You For Listening, Julia Whelan. Enjoyable though sometimes serious romance/women's fiction novel about an audiobook narrator, by an author who also narrates audiobooks. I enjoyed the characters' genre self-awareness, and how the protagonist, who doesn't believe in romance and happily ever after, is completely taken aback and freaked out to find she's been living a romance plot, while everyone else finds it hilarious.

A Drop of Corruption, Robert Jackson Bennett. Sequel to The Tainted Cup, second in the series of Ana and Din mysteries. Like the first book, this has fascinating and sometimes creepy worldbuilding, and an intriguing mystery -- I'm curious to see how it works out.
