    let me live with my delusions

    I haven't let myself read any reviews about this because I prefer to go in blind, and im also telling myself that if a book has a rating around 3.5 that's not necessarily bad. anyways. I am letting myself have fun with this one and not thinking about it too hard. are some things probably unrealistic or dramatic? im sure LOL and I can already see in my head how some reviews might be bashing those things. BUT I AM LETTING MYSELF ENJOY IT FOR THE FUN OF IT!!! this is a romance book, we dont have to be 100% serious. but yeah I was just thinking about this again with girlie hitting her head and slipping and everything like 💀 okay clumsy queen

  • Equestrian Centered Books ala Star Stable

    i am looking for a book that has the vibes of star stable online (i don’t wanna hear it from anyone that is my emotional support game) - so friendship, horses and magic but is more adult focused and not middle grade

    i understand that’s a hard ask so im really asking for any horse type books cause i really love those vibes

    if anyone has any suggestions please let me know! otherwise i feel like i just gotta write it myself

  • Next read recommendations please🙏🏻

    Does anyone have any light recs? Preferably not too long? I’m looking for my next audio read, and I just finished To Clutch A Razor by Veronica Roth and before that Vicious by VE Schwab. I loved them both a lot but I want smt lighter rn before going into my audio arc of Hazelthorn 😭

    I very rarely like romance books(more specifically with romance as the main focus I think), with the exception of queer ones apparently, I don’t mind what genre as long as it light and I mostly go for any that makes me laugh. Mostly read epic fantasy, sci-fi, ya and contemporary

    I’m thinking of Uncharmed by Lucy Jane Wood cause I did love her last book and it’s become a comfort read but idk.

    Alix E Harrow did a great job making me actually care about these characters in such a short time! generally when I read novellas/short books I feel like I don't end up feeling connected to the characters at all by the end, but in this book they were well fleshed out (for a novella) and were likable. the plot was simple but had a lot of meaning to it. overall a good read and I enjoyed it!

  • audiobook tips please

    So... I recently got approved for an audiobook on NetGally. I've never been big on audiobooks since I get distracted easily but I thought about giving it another shot as I actually got through a podcast and actually loved it (something I rarely do).

    I actually love the book so far and I got the ebook, but I cant seem to focus... I dont know if its the narrator or the book or even just my environment but I really want to finish this with the audiobook as I got it from NetGally... does anyone have any tips? Any advice? Anything at all?

    Thanks

    Thoughts from 39%

    "Rushing a patient to the OR to save only enough brain that his heart beats but he can never speak, he eats through a tube, and he is condemned to an existence he would never want…I came to see this as a more egregious failure than the patient dying."

    let me pretend to be shocked at a doctor being casually ableist 😲
