books, coffee, and rain 💐⋆˚ discussion

discuss the botm here! i haven't read it yet, but i will try to finish it up by may 1st

Did anyone enjoy it?

i gave it 4 stars i loved the whole vibe of it
the fairy king gave me the chills

My hold at the library just came up. Starting it now.

@amala Great! Hope you enjoy it 😄

For me, powerless was almost the most enjoyable book that I have ever read so I definitely recommend it.
It was a safe escape from the reality, and while I was reading it, every single page was like a knife to my heart, and in the beginning of every chapter I started it while crying and then did it while crying.
I can await the next book of this series.
Plus this two sided pov was giving me all of the goods because through the whole book. I always waited for Kai's pov 🤌

Wrong discussion 😅

I read A Study in Drowning not too long ago, and really enjoyed it. The vibe was perfection. :)

@bell glad you enjoyed it!

@bella yess the vibe is awesome

I am a little over 100 pages in and while I think the pace might be a little slow, I am enjoying reading how Ava writes her descriptors. How did everyone else think about how she wrote the setting? Did you enjoy it or no?

i rlly liked it! it gave a dark academia feel.. nd i enjoyed that

i LOVED a study in drowning !! the writing is gorgeous- super evocative and vivid. i could imagine the world so clearly. and i loved the blending of fantasy and reality, and all the metaphors about womanhood and drowning and prejudice and escape and adkfjlsafkjls it's soo goodddd. also effypreston are adorable. i love preston sm.

if i could add/change something i would delve deeper into effy's anti-argantian prejudice; i feel like that never got fully resolved, it was more of a 'haha so she doesn't like preston' kind of thing that came off a little weir dto me.

@lj glad to hear that!

@lj Yeah, I feel like her prejudice could have been addressed better.

yeah ur def right
