    Why i love these books

    I just had a sudden realisation on why i love these books so much while driving home listening to disney music. I grew up loving Descendants, it all makes so much sense

  • ✨Good✨ Characters

    I know a lot of people are loving chaotic, unhinged, dark, or morally gray characters, but anyone out there who also just really appreciates a nice, ✨good✨ character?

    One of my favorite characters ever is Keladry from Tamora Pierce’s Protector of the Small series! 🫶🏼✨ She’s such a good person: hardworking, smart, driven, fierce, strong, pure hearted, humble, loyal, etc… like her character flaw is basically her selflessness and inability to let others get bullied lol. She’s a static main character in regard to her values being rock solid throughout the series and you can’t help but root for her as she goes through trials and challenges!

    Who’s your favorite good character and from which book? I’d love to know! ❤️

  • Bookstore Strolls

    Today I found myself at a local bookstore just looking around. I mainly listen to audiobooks and read on my Kindle so physical books are just trophies for me. I wondered if the employees thought I was crazy for just browsing around and not buying anything. It got me thinking…do you just browse at the bookstore? What is your favorite thing about going to the bookstore? What’s something no one knows about a bookstore?

  • romance tropes you’ve seen in real life

    recently was thinking about how in my family there’s lots of couples that are opposites attract, which is honestly a trope I’ve never understood in books and still don’t understand in real life either (😂). I’m also South Asian, so like 80% of the couples I know are arranged marriages. But I’m curious, what are some of the romance tropes you’ve seen in real life and how do they compare to what you’ve read in books?

  • Audiobooks suggestions

    I was deeply influenced by you guys and will be trying out audiobooks for the first time! I'm using Audible, so do you have any recommendations for "beginners"? (I wanted to read something for my tbr but I'm scared it will ruin the book for me if I don't enjoy this format🤡🤡)

  • Audiobook platforms/sources suggestions?

    I’ve been convinced into starting audiobooks, but i don’t really know where to listen to them from.

    i’m on a pretty tight budget, so if you have any free recommendations, please let me know!

    What do you guys use?

    Thoughts from 46% (page 111)

    I'm starting to get why this is also in the cozy fantasy quest. It's definitely dark and definitely gothic horror but at the same time it is somehow also cozy. It doesn't sound like it should work together but it somehow toes the line between the gothic and the cozy perfectly and I love it!
