Hello! I'm a MG book lover and I especially love books with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent rep. I'm trying to branch out a bit more, but my favorite genres are fantasy and realistic fiction. :)

  • Magnus Chase or Kane Chronicles

    I own book 1 of Kane Chronicles but I have the trilogy for Magnus Chase but I'm not sure what to read next. I'm taking a break from the PJ series while I wait for the normal size paperback of book 7 and before I read Sun and Star as I found Trials of Apollo a bit harder to get through than the rest of the books and don't want to delve in too far too quick, hence the change to Norse or Egyptian mythology. Any advice would be great 😊

  • Shorter chapters or longer ones?

    I've read books with both longer chapters and shorter ones and depending on the book and plot I'd say they fit... but, longer chapters feel intimidating. I feel like I can read multiple shorter chapters alot faster than the longer ones, even if they total up to the same number of pages. (For example: chapters 1-5 = 30 pages as opposed to chapter 1 = 30 pages) Does anyone else feel like that? Do you prefer longer chapters or shorter ones?

    When the book makes a reference to the previous book the author wrote, but you haven't read that one yet and you didn't realize there was going to be a plot point about that. šŸ‘€

    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    Not Nothing Overall Rating: ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ .5 (3.5/5) or 7.00/10 overall Characters - 6 Atmosphere - 7 Writing - 8 Plot - 7 Intrigue - 8 Logic - 6 Enjoyment - 7 Overall Rating: First off, if you want to read this book please read Frankie & Bug first! It's not absolutely necessary since it's not part of a series but some of the characters do come back and it makes it a lot cooler and more understandable if you've read that previously. Although they have very different narrative/writing styles, I enjoyed them about the same. I don't really have any other big thoughts about this book otherwise.

I'm not sure if that was a stylistic choice given that it was set in 1987 or not. That's my assumption, but it was still jarring to hear. I think the author could've gone about that a little better if that was her intention though. :/

  • Username Challenge

    I just did this on Instagram with physical books, but I thought it might be fun to see what others can come up with! These are all books I physically own because I wanted to take a picture, but I'd say it counts digitally if a book is one you've read or is on your TBR whether you own the book or not! Here's mine, I regretted the long username a little. I didn't expect it to be so hard to find enough E's lol. (now my goal is to read them all this year, luckily I have a good start). A - Artemis by Andy Weir P - Phantasma by Kaylie Smith R - Reckless by Lauren Roberts I - IT by Stephen King L - Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien T - Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson H - the Hobbit by JRR Tolkien E - Eragon by Christopher Paolini B - the Bone Season by Samantha Shannon O - One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig O - Our Infinite Fates by Laura Steven K - the Kaiju Preservatjon Society by John Scalzi Q - Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas U - Us Dark Few by Alexis Patton E - Empire of Storms by Sarah J Maas E - Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett N - Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo

    It has taken me 8% of this audio book to realise that the blurb said that Perigee needed to raise their dad's spiritS and NOT raise their dad's spirit. 😳 Oops.

  • Curious About Your ā€œMy Tasteā€ Shelf…

    For the 5 books in the ā€œMy Tasteā€ section on your profile, how did you pick them? Are they all 5-star reads, personal favorites, books that give off your general reading vibe, or do they all just scream "me"? I’m always curious how people approach it. Mine are all 5-star reads that kind of reflect my reading vibe, even if they don’t totally scream ā€œme.ā€
