Floppy Ear Wanted to Say hi!
Goodreads Monday is hosted by Lauren’s Page Turners. All you have to do is show off a book from your TBR that you’re looking forward to reading.
This week’s choice comes from a blog tour that made the rounds through my feed just over a month now, although lord knows it feels like a lifetime after everything! However, I’m giving credit to Haley at the Caffeinated Reader because she was the first place I saw it. You can see her review of one book in the trilogy, Winter of the Witch, linked above. The link below is the Goodread link to the entire trilogy:

Your cat is so cute!
These covers are downright gorgeous. I’ve somehow never heard of this series, but I’m remedying that immediately. Also, your cat is adorable.
Is Pavel sitting in his food? Also, are these stand alone books in the same series or do they follow the same characters? (I ask coz I feel like I don’t see much adult fantasy!)
