  • What's everyone's current read?

    I'd love to know what is everyone reading I am currently reading Vicious by VE Schwab. I've had this on my TBR for so long, but never found the motivation to pick it up until now. I am enjoying the story as well as the main character. I am also reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo, or more like trying to since it has taken me two years to get to page 90 XD i have soft DNFed it thrice now at this point but because i spent a good amount of money on it, I do want to read it.

    In fairness, now that I’m a bit further in, this DOES feel thematically YA. Definitely the character age and the current direction of his story arc are firmly YA.

    Manacled prep

    Rereading the entire series in preparation for Manacled (& potentially the entire dramione rabbit hole) - definitely not a necessary step but I’m sooo looking forward to experiencing this world again, it’s been so long I’m hoping it’ll feel like the first time 🄹

    okayyy just now getting the Wuthering Heights references: Heath is Heathcliff (dark, broody, misunderstood), taken in by Kat (Cathy)'s father. How Wuthering Heights can be translated to the skating world, I'm not so sure...
