“Was it loud?” I pull back, frowning. “Was what loud?” He looks down at me, his eyes shining with mischief. “Her laugh. Was it loud?” “Oh, absolutely.” “And did it get kind of high-pitched at the end?” Where is this going? “Actually, yeah. A little bit.” “Then you can’t forget, because that’s what yours sounds like,” he says

STOP ITTTTT WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS MAN CAN DESCRIBE HER LAUGH IM GAGGED HE IS SO IN LOVE WITH HER

I’ve been looking at the books I’ve read in the past 2-3 years and the majority of them are contemporary romances. While I have nothing against the genre, I’m planning to branch out to ones I haven’t read as much such as sci fi, horror and lit fic. Anyone else has a similar goal and if so, which genre (new to you or you haven’t read as much) do you want to explore more next year?

With the new year approaching and the 2026 reading goals all over my pb feed, I wondered : What books do you absolutely want to read in 2026? and what are your bookish new year resolutions? 😄

For 2026 I want read :

• Children of Blood and Bone trilogy by Tomi Adeyemi ( it’s time! )
• The Bloodsworn Series by John Gwynne ( I just know it’s epic )
• Deep Waters series by Emma Hamm ( those covers convinced me 😮‍💨)
• The Daevadad Trilogy ( apparently it’s criminally underrated )
• The Spear Cut Through Water by Simon Jimenez

And I have only 3 resolutions :

• read less but with more mindfulness
• start reading history books
• go get a library card!

What about yall? 😄✨

First time reading! I’m excited 😆
