S.A. Cosby is a brilliant writer!! I am currently reading all the sinners bleed and loving it. It’s my third book I’m reading from him, I started with Razorblade tears myself 😊

I am looking forward to reading much more of his work.

“How We Named the Stars” by Andres N. Ordorica is quite a moving story. I enjoyed it and that’s all I’m saying about it for now. Biscuit is settling in nicely!

Hahahaha thank you for your tact in that review! Ha. Biscuit seems very happy. He’s taken a shine to the library.

I love Biscuit. Such a handsome boy. S A Cosby is an auto buy for me. So many great books in this video.

You’re one of the reasons that I asked for the Cosby book, you and Cindy have raved so fabulously about his books.

S. A. Cosby is wonderful. All Sinner’s Bleed is great. Usually not the genre I read but he changed my mind.

“Naughty sausage” *snork* Naheed Nenshi was the mayor of my city, and we miss him. It was lovely to see him. I laughed when he said his family used to own a motel and he was finding the bell triggering. It was a great season of Canada Reads. Loving the Biscuit content :-)

Razorblade Tears was my first SA Cosby was very good. I read his latest book All Sinners Bleed liked the book but deals with hard topics. I would check content warnings first. I've also pick up two novels on his backlist.

Really it seems the latest one has had absolute raves and raves across the board. Biscuit is doing really well. He’s very, very affectionate. Quite chill. Him and Oscar seem fine. I think him and Mildred may take a little longer. Ha. Mildred and Oscar are both rescues too. Though Oscar was 3 months old and Mildred was 5 months a few months later.
