Goodreads Monday/TBR Monday is hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog and invites you to post about what books are on your Goodreads “to read” lists or TBR lists, the progress you have made on your current books and reading challenges, and any other bookish news!

Okay so from now on, unless a book bumps to the front of list, I am going to go down the list from the books that have been on my TBR the absolute longest. It is getting harder to pick which books to post on these memes so that will just take the choice out of it for me lol.

This weeks book is a bit different from what I normally read and that is The Enoch Effect by Rick Acker. It is classified as Christian fiction, legal thriller, with mystery and suspense and is the first book in the Leigh Collins series.

Synopsis

Insurance litigator Leigh Collins has a knack for turning up that missing e-mail that wins the day or breaking down complex facts to sway a jury. So she’s hoping to make partner with her latest case: cancer researcher Dr. Elijah Rhodes and his life’s work are lost in a lab fire, and Biosolutions looks to cash in on a $100 million policy. Unfortunately, she’s up against Daniel Rubinelli, assistant general counsel for the biotech giant, who has a personal vendetta against cancer. In court, Leigh and Daniel clash from the beginning, ensuring a grueling case.

But soon greater concerns emerge. The late doctor might have found a “kill switch” for cancer cells—potentially wiping the disease off the face of the earth. While most of his findings were lost in the fire, he likely backed up his data, though encrypted beyond recovery.

Now, in this edge-of-your-seat thriller, two contentious lawyers must set aside their differences to locate the research before the doctor’s greatest discovery falls into the wrong hands…and the secret to life ends in death.

Updates

I have begun reading my final book needed for my 2026 Goodreads goal. It is Falling Into Us by Denise Hunter and I am about 20% of the way through the ARC version. I am enjoying the story so far and the writing is very good as well so I am hoping to end the challenge strong for sure!

I am still debating on which audiobook to listen to next!

My Goodreads 2026 Reading Challenge

47/48 (98%)

I think after this challenge is done, I will focus more on my StoryGraph challenge and finish those prompts out since I only have four left I do believe.
