  • Why Are Magical Schools So Unaccredited and Unhinged??

    WARNING: there is some talk about zodiac academy in this but it doesn’t really spoil anything but still…..warning

    ok but seriously… can we talk about how every magical school in books is just ✨UNHINGED, too much trauma, and casual child endangerment✨???

    like… WHO is accrediting these institutions??? where is the board of education??? what is the curriculum, exactly?? how are you gonna tell me your “school” includes death mazes, forbidden forests, live combat, dark magic, inter-species bullying, and then act like it’s normal because they have a dining hall and a headmaster with mysterious trauma. errrmmmm. that's not a school. that's a lawsuit waiting to happen 😭

    📚🪄 and don't even get me STARTED on Zodiac Academy (no backlash on the series cuz it is one of my favourite series—LANCE MOTHERFREAKING ORIAN 🧎‍♀️). that place is not a school, it’s a supernatural version of The Hunger Games run by ✨horny professors✨ and ✨emotionally unstable princes✨ with jawlines sharp enough to slice through the plot holes. like: — the professors? perverts. I’m acc scared 😳 . — the students? literal sociopaths with abs. — the vibe? “welcome to our elite academy! here’s your uniform and a personalized trauma arc 💅” — the twins? got intensely bullied AND mentally tormented in the first week and still showed up to class like “huh that was weird 😃” EXCUSE ME?? GIRL. TRANSFER. GO TO COMMUNITY COLLEGE. IDC THAT U CAN’T GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT AND GIVE UP.

    and like why is the whole school built around who has the biggest magical bloodline + who can throw the best enchanted punch?? not a single career fair in sight. no financial aid office. just ✨ancient prophecies✨, ✨sexy enemies✨, and ✨weird power dynamics with teachers✨ like HELLO?? this is not Hogwarts this is a psychological experiment.

    also. everyone in these schools is either: — emotionally dead inside ☠️ — an alpha male with daddy issues 🐺 — a fairy 🧚‍♀️ — or all of the above and yet somehow there’s still time for romance subplots in between FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES during extracurriculars. like “I was almost murdered during elemental combat class but now I’m kissing my enemy on a rooftop under three moons while an assassin watches us from the shadows 😌✨” girl. what?? GET. A. GUIDANCE. COUNSELOR.

    also why do the libraries always have forbidden sections where if you check the wrong book out you get cursed by the souls of the damned??? I’m just trying to pass Ancient Magic 101, not unlock the seventh seal of hell.

    i’m sorry but if I ever got admitted to a magical academy and on day one someone tried to drown me in a fountain for “character development,” I’m calling my mom, dropping out, and becoming a barista in the human realm. ✌️

  • How do you like to plan your reading? TBRs? Pure mood reading?

    I just used the Plan feature which is SO neat, and I think is a nice balance between having a TBR and mood reading. Plus it just ✨looks good✨

    I'm so much more of a mood reader, but sometimes it's nice having a few books that I know I want to read in a general time frame, so I have a selection to look at first when trying to pick my next book.

    Of course, the quests and readalongs here are going to dictate some of my reading, but I'm finding that a fun project to look forward to.

  • fast reader/slow reader

    Hello, I always thought I was a fast reader but I realised that it’s almost slow compared to some people (less than a day for sole of you, what ??). So I was wondering, how are you doing ? Are you reading fully or a word out of two ? How do you have so much time to read that fast ? 😂

  • Tell us about your library shelves?

    As we know, the list feature on here is for curating a collection for the community - but I thought it might be fun to hear about what people have put on their library shelves for themselves, too! Beyond TBRs, favorites, and personal reading tracking/planning, what have you used the library feature on here for?

    For me, I made a shelf called "Friend recs I trust" which is basically what it says on the tin. It's an ever-growing collection of books I really want to get to & that I heard about from friends, some of whom I have known since I was a teen, and whose existence has touched and shaped my life in a way where I truly don't think I am the same person I was before I met them. (It also includes recs from newer friends who I think are having this effect on me, of course!)

    I'm also considering starting a series of shelves labeled "the year of [insert something fun/nice/memorable that happened in that year]" to sort through my fave reads annually haha. How about you all?

  • The Will of the Many (Hierarchy, #1)
    Thoughts from 12% (page 80)

    80 pages into this thing and I have no idea what the setting is. Is it dystopian with magic? Is this fantasy with semi-modern, post apocalyptic but also Roman Empire vibes? I couldn't tell you if my life depended on it.
