Ok this is my guilty pleasure reading and no one can stop me. Btw has everyone seen this cover? lol who is this guy?

I'm on chapter 3 and uhhh I'm not sure if I'm going to finish...

Gosh this book is so weird

Ugh, why did I think I could read this book? This author’s writing style just does not work for me, so it’s on hold for now. I will most likely not come back to it.

I'm officially in a book slump :( I've chosen some pretty mediocre books lately (partly so I can do some mindless reading) and they've all been 3 stars or less. :(

This book is terrible and I’m hate reading it 😅

Dnf

I’m already bored. 😑

I've been sick this week (Covid!) and how better to spend my time than watching BBC miniseries adaptations of Emma and Sense and Sensibility (continuing on what seems to be my Austen theme lately, it seems). I enjoyed both shows, although Emma (the protag) was incredibly annoying. Also, it was funny to see Dan Stevens pre-Downton Abbey.

Someone send help, I cannot handle the cuteness overload 😍

I am in this weird place where I can’t start a new book as the book I’ve been waiting for months is releasing tomorrow. Iykyk.

I downloaded the Pucking Around multi author anthology via Amy Aislin’s newsletter. I really enjoyed her entry ‘Shut Out’. Doesn’t have a GR listing but it’s free for a limited time. Series has entries by other authors too, like Brigham Vaughn.

Uhh I think someone else is writing under NR Walkers name. 😬 it’s impossible for me to believe the same person who wrote Red Dirt Hart wrote this? 😭

Gosh this book is so tedious

I have 3 books to read in the next 1.5 weeks, no pressure 😫

That cover for Matrimonial merriment 😍😍😍

“In every universe, it’s you for me. Even if it’s not me for you.”

What a banger 😭😭😭🥹🥹

what the fuck, I'm crying 😢

I’m on chapter 2 and omg these 2 🥰🥰🥰

Folks, I’m 20% in, and I’m bored. Putting this on hold for now. This book is not bad or offensive in anyway, so do give this a try, but it’s simply not working for me.

so the Red, White and Royal Blue movie is going to generate a lot of discourse. (My rating is 3/5, DNF'ed the book, movie was ok, cringe in bits). But my main suggestion is to check out the actor who plays Alex Clairmont Diaz' arms. Arm porn is real. LMAO

So the blurb for the next Valor and Doyle book is up on Amazon and uh.. we can expect to see more of Quaid’s insecurities portrayed? Say it ain’t so Nicky James! I love these guys and i will read the book and probably love it, but seriously? We’ve already covered this, extensively. 😩

My kindle died😩

Oh dear, I’m about 30% in and wondering why I picked this up.

I just binge watched ‘Young Royals’ on Netflix and holy fucking shit, it is so so good. Highly recommend watching for MM romance lovers. This is YA+ royal romance, themes that I normally don’t prefer to read, but the TV series is everything.❤️❤️❤️ it took a couple of episodes to get into it but it gets better and better as the series/episodes progress.

I’ve been kind of busy with life in general, and have not been on here as much these last couple weeks. My reading slump is ongoing. I have not been excited about any of the recent books I’ve read. I did watch the movie ‘Spoiler Alert’ which is based on the book with the same name, by Michael Ausiello. I hope to be over this slump soon and be back more regularly. 🤞❤️

Watching ‘Shetland’ (tv series) and I’m 100% obsessed. I am now curious about Ann Cleeves’ books.

Watching the 1995 Pride and Prejudice mini series with Colin Firth and it’s so good. I tried reading the book, but the language was a pain in the butt for me to deal with. If there is an edited version with modern English and dialogues I would read it!

I’m very close to abandoning this book… too much internal monologue.

I’m very close to abandoning this book.
