    Well, this is just a re-read as I've read this series years ago (2007)! Forgot what's the series was about so time for a refresh 😆

  • 📚✍️ Kobo Libra Color & Stylus – Screen Protector Needed? 🤔

    Hey everyone! I have a Kobo Libra Color and I'm thinking of getting the stylus so I can start annotating my books (so far, I've only been highlighting). 🖊️📖 My question is: Do I need a screen protector to prevent damage? Will it affect the screen quality or the way the display looks? Or is it fine without one? Would love to hear your thoughts! 😊

  • Book format

    Is there a way to specify the format of a book as an audiobook, an ebook, or a physical book? I usually tend to oscillate between listening to an audiobook or reading something on my e-reader, so I was wondering if there was a way to log that!

    honestly, feeling a surreal sense of disappointment. this is cassandra clare's weakest trilogy finale. i definitely think this was a case of trying to do too much all at once, which made for half-characters, abandoned plotlines, and an unsatisfying ending.

    I'm not sure where to begin when it comes to this book. Suzanne Collins, as expected, never misses when it comes to her messaging. She really hit nail on the head this time. Though it still holds the YA tag, everything felt so much more gruesome, so much more real. I will definitely need to reread this to catch some of the more subtle nuances. It was so wonderful to see the origins of several characters in the Hunger Games Universe that we love and the callback to the characters of the previous sequel made me gasp. My enjoyment is at a 4.5 only because I was a sobbing mess by the end of it.
