Podcast - Checked Out: Mysteries, Magic & Morally Complex Women

from Reeding Between The Lines · host Sara Reed

In this episode, we cover a fantastic range of reads — from Brandon Sanderson's wildly fun middle grade adventure Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians, to three recent standout picks: the ensemble restaurant drama The Reservation, the survival love story Castle of Water, and the richly reimagined fairy tale Lady Tremaine. We also highlight two exciting new additions to the list — a clever Groundhog Day-style Japanese murder mystery and a deliciously twisty locked-room thriller set in a haunted library. Plus, a deep dive into how to organize your Kindle library so it actually works for you.🎧 Don't forget to subscribe, like, and comment 📚 Follow Reeding Between the Lines:Instagram: @reedingpodYouTube: @reedingbetweenthelinesApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Books Mentioned:Brandon Sanderson — Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians series:Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians (Book 1 — discussed this episode)The Scrivener's BonesThe Knights of CrystalliaThe Shattered LensThe Dark TalentBastille vs. the Evil LibrariansRecently Read:The Reservation — Rebecca KauffmanCastle of Water — Dane HuckelbridgeLady Tremaine — Rachel HochhauserCurrently Reading — Clara Vale series by Fiona Veitch Smith:The Picture House MurdersThe Pantomime MurdersNew Additions:The Man Who Died Seven Times — Yasuhiko Nishizawa (trans.
