'At this point in the story, I feel obliged to interrupt and give you one last warning. As I said at the very beginning, the book you are holding in your hands does not have a happy ending.'

The writing style of this book is so compelling and the way the "third wall" is breached by these kinds of descriptions is so good! Although of course it would've been nice if the kids had a happy ending. 😅

Hi all!

I am hoping you guys could help me find some genre books that do something a little different from the norm. maybe it blends genres, has a weird plot or structure, reads more like literary fiction, or takes stylistic risks.

Sci-fi, fantasy, horror, romance, thriller, etc. Any genre is fine, as long as it made you think sth like “well, this isn’t what I expected from this book/genre”

Thank you~

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? 😄✨

I'm both interested and bored. Maybe it's because I'm reading too slow but i want more things to happen

I see potential so I don't wanna dnf it Can't wait to love it (please let me love it)

I read this in highschool and I remember enjoying it. Anyways I found a second hand copy recently so I’ve decided to re-read it for fun
