I kept seeing people talk about The Fourth Wing everywhere, and I decided that if I came across it at some point that I’d just see what all the fuss was about.

I was browsing Libby recently for audiobooks available now, and I saw what I thought I had remembered was the title. What I ended up checking out was called The Four Winds. I thought, great, this will be fine to listen to while I do chores and I can evaluate it for myself.

A couple hours in, I was like, wait a minute? Weren’t there supposed to be dragons in this? I don’t see how dragons will show up in Dust Bowl-era Texas. I realized my mistake, but I was invested at this point and ended up really liking the book.

Has something like this happened to you? What were the books and the outcome?

    Me: Trying to remember that recent funny/mystery book where the main character is a murderer

    I go home from the library with My Murder by Katie Williams AND Murder Your Employer by Rupert Holmes AND Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone by Benjamin Stevenson

    Didn’t really like any of them :(
