    😭😭😭

    I am DNFing after realizing 50% through it is in fact not gay. Disappointing. (If anyone wants a straight YA mystery though this one might be your thing!)

  • Reading Journal Ideas

    Hey fellow bookies šŸ«¶šŸ¼ So I’m planning on creating a reading journal, since all journals I find online don’t seem to cover everything… I want to create it on Canva and definitely share it when it’s done. Maybe even put it on KDP one day. Tell me about your musts in a reading journal. Please, bookies, me all your ideas on them šŸ˜

  • Books that made you... šŸ¤”

    Was there ever a time, when you were reading a book, that made you do a double take? As in the weirdest scene, sentence or moment you've read in what you thought was meant to be a normal book. Or something a character did that left you so mad because it didn't make any sense?

    Reading Order

    Apparently this series can be experienced a bit differently depending on when you read The Assassin's Blade. So I'm interested to know how you read it or which order you prefer as I'm unsure whether to start with TOG or TAB.

    He's simply adorable, it's impossible not to fall in love with him.

  • Spectacular (Caraval, #3.5)
    I finished this book and now I need to consult my psychology textbooks

    I don't think this should be categorized as YA I think at least for me listening on audiobook there should have been a warning that some dark themes would have been present. I'm not opposed to exploring relationships and dark themes in YA but the book being marketed as a cute Christmas novella and there being so much time taken to be in a holiday nightmare I was shook. I think I would like it more if I was warned, but I'm just comfortable with Donatella and Legend's relationship being this volatile.

  • scoliosis reading!

    I have scoliosis and always am looking for representation in all forms of media. I just started compiling a list of books I found in discussions across the internet, but I feel like I only scratched the surface. Does anyone have any recommendations for more fictional novels that feature characters with scoliosis?? (most books I found were nonfiction, which is great! but its really cool to see representation in other genres as well, like scifi/fantasy/or horror)

  • Finale (Caraval, #3)

    I’m looking at the table of contents in dismay because there’s not as much Scarlett chapters and personally I like her and her storyline more than tellas… im still committed to this book tho.

  • Leather & Lark (The Ruinous Love Trilogy, #2)
    Thoughts from 100% (page 80)

    I'm only 20% through the book, but it's impossible not to love every book or every character this writer writes. The humor, making you laugh and bringing out a smile with every paragraph. Going from staring at every cheesy, spicy, and tense word to To spend time laughing non-stop.

  • Do you take genre breaks, and what genre do you pick up?

    I usually read contemporary romances and YA romances, but sometimes a few in a row gets Too Much. So I like to take "genre breaks" to kinda reset and freshen up the palate. I've been really enjoying picking up a horror fiction to bring me out of the romance sphere recently. I really liked Uketsu's Strange Pictures and although I didn't enjoy Strange Houses as much, it was still a good break from romance. I read C.G. Drews' Don't Let the Forest In on one of my breaks too and I'm looking forward to her next books! Aside from those recent ones though, some of my favourites are actually YA fantasies and YA contemporary sports!

    Thoughts from 100%

    I am so glad that I started this series with The Assasin's Blade before Throne of Glass. Without that little bit of added backstory I do not think I would have been as emotionally invested in Celaena's journey. I cannot wait to get through the rest of the series.
