    That was the most horrific, disturbing, uncomfortable book I've ever read and I loved it!!

  • Christmas Books? 🎄🎅

    I KNOW ITS EARLY JUST LISTEN!!!! I was working on my Halloween TBR and I find that every year I know exactly what I want to read; horror. Horror and thrillers are like THE go to book for the spooky season. That got me thinking though,,, what is the Christmas season book? The only thing I can think of is those cheesy (some are good i have to admit) Christmas themed nickel paperback books. Other than the directly themed books, what books do you read for the jolly season? (Or what are you planning on reading?)

  • chaos, folded corners & cracked spines

    okay judgement free zone right…? I crack spines, fold corners, and throw books in my bag like they belong there. Bookmarks? Page folds. Dust jackets? Optional. I read with the book folded in half. No spine is safe with me. Imo my books are meant to be loved, not preserved.

    Shoutout to fellow chaotic readers… and props to those who keep their books immaculate. I genuinely don’t know how you read a book and keep it pristine, not even a crack in the spine. I see you, I admire you, but I’ll never be you.

    Any other Type B readers out there, living that gloriously messy, well-loved book life? 🩵😈

  • A booklovers failure

    Just imported my goodreads library and realise there's like a solid 2 years where I DIDN'T RECORD ANYTHING. What's worse is part of this time I was a LIBRARIAN and regularly reading 3 books a week 🤣😭 Will I ever remember the titles or plots from that time? Nope. Will I see a bookcover and get random flash backs like an old lady in a historical drama? Probably. Long story short, I now vow to track all my books 🤣🙌

    Anyone else have huge gaps in their book tracking?

    I started listening on Audio and the audio cover is so cool, neon pink with cool cyberpunk art style! I was like this looks frickin awesome, then I added it here and it's the red shoe picture and realized iv had this book on my radar for literally years but never picked it up because I thought it was gonna be a crappy YA love story with no real substance (I read too many of them growing up). So I guess never judge a book by its cover 😅 I'm loving it so far!

    I was reading this before bed and legit had nightmares last night 😅 they weren't about anything specific just really disconcerting and eerie vibes. I'm a horror reader and have never had a problem before, so this is wild to me 🫣
