So glad I did a Macbeth refresher before starting - very necessary for this. This reading experience is very dense, which I remember feeling with Juniper & Thorn by Ava Reid; hoping things feel more fluid in Act II and beyond. I’m intrigued by the Scottish magic, how it’s real, strong, and tied to the land. Hoping we get much more of the witches

Something I'm curious about: do you find it easy or hard to find books that you like? How do you categorize books you've read?
I'm interested because I'm such a non-picky reader it's a bit ridiculous. For example, in my mind I categorize books I've read like this: Books that I could relate to on a very personal level (rare) Books that I hated so much I felt they were a waste of time (rare) Every other book
In the last category there are of course differences to how much I liked the book, but it's very rare for a book to be so bad that I DNF it or put in the hate category. I also often read books I know I wont even enjoy, for example I've read almost all of the Bridgerton books, although they are such garbage I could write multiple essays about it, and I cannot for the life of me understand why I didn't stop reading after the first one!
For this reason I think it's sooo hard to rate books, which I think is also why I never joined other book sites before PG. To me most of the time a book is a book so I don't really know how I should rate it and I think I just enjoy the act of reading, rather than enjoying the actual book if that makes sense??
In a way it's nice though, because I always have something to read since the book doesn't even have to be good!

Whether you love to hate or hate to love 'em, these literary bad girls are anything but well-behaved. *Disclaimer: we do not literally support the illegal and oft cruel behavior of these protagonists (usually); we support the authors bold enough to write them (always).

ME/CFS rep
For all of us with ME/CFS, also known as chronic fatigue. For all of us with chronic illness. For all of us who wish to be seen and heard and loved and understood. I get you and you’re not alone.
I hope these books help heal a part of your heart, or that they teach you something valuable. Sending you love and vitality 💛
Pls note: Piranesi is (only) inspired by the author’s experience with CFS, and some books don’t specify CFS in a character but show the experience anyway.

Do you ever have the urge to read many books at the same and you end reading any because u simply can't choose?

September was a great month for me! It has been the month I have read the most (this year). Hopefully, October will be the same. I think I read more because I borrowed books from the public library, which means there is a time limit. That kinda motivated me to keep reading. It wasn’t like I could simply leave it for later. I had to finish it. Do you guys go to your public library? Let's see how this month goes. Happy reading everyone!
