James is starting Homebound: A Novel
Finals season is beating my ass (this weekend I clocked in: 4 hours writing a paper, 7.5 hours on a phonetics problem set, 3 hours on workshop readings, 0 hours on studying for my Russian final 😭) but I have high hopes for this book!

James is starting The Apple and the Pearl
Absolutely raw-dogging this ARC because it has no reviews on NetGalley and only one on Goodreads that doesn't even have a star rating. Pray for me.

the amount of horror I've been reading cannot be conducive to good mental health but this looks like it will either be super freaky or corny as hell and I need that rn

Just crossed the 300 books mark and I am...in a slump. Do y'all have any recommendations, on my tbr or otherwise, that you think I would for sure enjoy? Preferably not to long and I'm not in a romance mood. HELP
