  • Fun fact about you that doesn’t match your personality/book taste

    Hey all! I’ve been seeing this trend going around on social media, and thought it’d be fun to do on here!!

    What’s one fun fact about you that doesn’t match your personality and/or book taste?

    For me, I love reading anything gothic horror, but I’m actually quite the bit of a scaredy cat irl. I cannot watch anything scary at night (same goes for reading scary books, which is probably why it took me a month to read It lol 😂🥴)

    This book really surprised me in the best way possible! I really loved watching the dynamic between Julian and Yadriel evolve throughout the book! Can’t wait for the sequel!!

  • 3 emojis

    à la the PB review page that prompts you to pick 3 emojis to describe a book, what 3 emojis would you use to describe yourself? I feel like the book emoji is a given so maybe avoid that one (or don't I'm not the emoji police) 📚

    Mine would be 🤓📻☕

  • Who’s Who Wednesday part 2

    Hi guys! Time for another Who’s Who Wednesday where every Wednesday we get to know each other a little better and make new friends. (I cleared it with J + L)

    If you participated last week, no need to make a new introduction if you don’t want to but maybe include some facts about you or an opinion you want to share. If you’re new or didn’t participate last week, introduce yourself.

    I’ll go first

    Green Day and Tool are the best 90s bands The casting of the twilight movie still makes me angry to this day I have beef with a squirrel in my neighborhood

    DNF title from Readalong

    So I've finished reading The Spellshop and A Dowry of Blood from the Fall 2025 Readalong and really enjoyed them. I'm also looking forward to Blood Over Bright Haven and curious for Don't Let the Forest in.

    But I'm a little scared to pick up Tender is the Flesh. I have the ebook so I will definitely try. But im suspecting a DNF just because of the reviews I read so far. 🥩🥴

    If I decide to do this will that mean I don't earn the pretty glittery badge for the readalong? Do you really have to 🏁 finish all? Just wondering.

  • Bad reading habits?

    I just noticed about bad habit of mine: waiting like 3 weeks after finishing an ARC to write my review 🫣🫣🫣 I don’t even know why, I just never feel ready to before that mark 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Anyone else have any bad reading habits? And are you trying to change them or have you just accepted your fate?
