hey boundlings! i used to do this every week here but i fell off the wagon coz life got in the way and now im back again!
there are moments where we'd feel despair and nothing seems to be going our way. i hope that this thread will give you a little something to think about, and how even during the toughest times, there'll be something you can still feel grateful for. if there isn't, im sending love and hugs your way and pray that things start to look up for you. 🫶🏻
ill go first!
been struggling a lot at work and decided to throw the towel one day without securing a job. thankfully, i managed to find one during my notice period. i'm almost done with my notice and will be taking a really short break before i begin my new role! 😇
my marriage with my husband - we've went through worst times but i'm just grateful that we're in an awesome place right now 🙂↔️ there isn't grand gestures or big surprises, just doing life together.
my parents - they're my absolute rock and i've been feeling guilty of not spending as much time as i'd like to. this will serve as a reminder that as we're navigating and building a life of our own, our parents are also aging.

Sinner commented on deleted's review of Blood & Betrayals
I really wanted to enjoy Blood & Betrayals—the premise had promise, with its mix of dark romance, supernatural intrigue, and betrayal at its core. Unfortunately, the execution didn’t quite live up to the potential.
The biggest struggle for me was the pacing. Scenes often dragged with over-explained details, then suddenly lurched forward in ways that felt rushed. This made it hard to stay fully engaged, and I found myself skimming sections just to get back to something meaningful.
The characters, while initially intriguing, didn’t develop in satisfying ways. Their motivations felt inconsistent, and the emotional depth I expected just wasn’t there. Instead of being swept up in their betrayals and passions, I often felt disconnected, like I was watching from a distance rather than experiencing the story with them.
The worldbuilding also left me wanting more. There were glimpses of a rich, layered universe, but it was either underexplored or drowned in info-dumps that broke the flow of the narrative.
There are definitely readers who might enjoy the drama and darker elements, but for me it was a frustrating read. With tighter editing, stronger character arcs, and more balance in pacing, this could have been a much stronger book. Sadly, it just didn’t deliver what I was hoping for.

I just realized that for my 6-day vacation I brought four physical books two rereads (Vengeful and Outlander 470p and 850 pages respectively) and No Body No Crime and The Safekeep (both of which I have not started yet and want to finish before August 31st and September 8threspectively)
Additionally, I have my e-reader with 8 ebooks/ audiobooks readily available. I already started two novellas and a nonfiction book.
This might be too much to read in a week, but at the same time it definitely isn't because I'm very much a mood reader.
How many books do you bring on vacation/do you have an e-reader and leave physical books at home like a sane person?
