It’s time to say goodbye to Wyrd and Wonder 2025.
This year, I was a little surprised at how much I was able to participate. April was a busy month for me, so when I hadn’t even started the readalong book, Voyage of the Damned by Frances White, almost a week into May, I worried I wouldn’t be able to post much. Luckily Voyage of the Damned turned out to be a fast paced read and I found a couple prompts that got my writing wheels turning. The only post that didn’t make it in time was my review of The Bone Ships by RJ Barker (although I did finish the book today!).
As always, I had so much fun celebrating fantasy with other bloggers. Lets see everything that happened this Wyrd and Wonder.
For those just tuning in: Wyrd and Wonder is an annual month-long fantasy celebration held every May. This year’s hosts are Imyril with There’s Always Room for One More, Lisa with Dear Geek Place, Jorie with Jorie Loves a Story, Annemieke with A Dance with Books, and Ariana with The Book Nook.

What Did I Read This Month?



- The Winter King by C.L. Wilson
- Voyage of the Damned by Frances White
- The Bone Ships (The Tide Child #1) by RJ Barker
By far, my favorite I read this month was The Bone Ships!
What’s happening next?
For the next week or two (hopefully just one) I need to do a little blog maintenance. I’m going to take a break during June and start up my biweekly posting schedule again starting June 28th.

I’ve never heard of The Winter King, but that cover is Stunning!
I love the cover! It’s a fun arranged marriage fantasy romance that feels a bit like a Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast mashup (not a retelling, just the vibes)
I loved The Bone Ships too!
It was one of those books that I was saving because I knew I would love the series and want to read it all at once, and it definitely met expectations! I finished book 2 now and am getting ready to start #3!
