Mystery/ Thriller passive low-stakes, purely for entertainment books as an audiobook played while working or doing chores is 💯 makes time (work) less stressful and more enjoyable!

Audiobooks are only for passive, easy read books tho. Still prefer reading physical copies for books I really wanna digest and connect with

But the audiobooks are still entertaining (and offer lesser commitment for busy times lol)

Watched the movie (yup, i failed my goal of finishing the book before watching the movie 🤣) anyway, I think it’s meant for me not to finish the book before watching the movie and I’m glad it happened that way!!

Also, best ending ever!!! Esp for this storyyy.

Halfway through the first chapter and I feel disturbed and uncomfortable, this reminds me of My Dark Vanessa….. (not for the plot but for that uncomfortable feeling as a girl)

*not real page coz audiobook*
wtfff, what’s with the hurrrrrrr

*audiobook so not the exact page*

girl thinks Andrew deserves better

and gurl u think you are the definition of “better”???? LOL AT U at both of u cheaterrrs

not the actual page since i am listening via audiobook but i just wanna say,

Regardless of the situation, that’s cheating. That’s still cheating, Milli and Andrew.

audiobook (as a background music when working and doing stuff so that I can still make use of my time to read and be immersed with other stuff *yay* aside from work and “productivity” coz that’s meh lol)

I mean I seldom agree with the main female character’s thoughts or how she process this, but who am i to disagree, it’s her life, it’s her choices, plus I am not on her shoes so I dont really know how heartbreaking that situation must have been

I dont really know what page im on, but it is at 4:26:41 mark on audiobook and my heart is breaking for sam 🥲lowkey regretting not reading this on hard copy (so i can digest the dialogue more and highlight lines) but i know listening to the audiobook is the best thing i can for now coz of the busy schedule, plus it was so entertaining i feel like listening to a friend’s story. Tho cant highlight stuff

I think it is already safe to say that I like Taylor Jenkin’s writing style. My 3rd book of hers and this is romance but I am enjoying it! I guess I still enjoy romance if it is written right for me (ex., if it puts more emphasis on the story rather than nonsense things)

Shhhhhhhhhhttttttt

Started this week, but via audiobook and it’s helpful! Got to “read” books and explore these stories while doing other things simultaneously (I usually use it as a bgm while doing something) and will keep doing it this year! (Only for books that I am interested but not to the point that I want to dive deep into it or serious about the book coz if that’s the case, I am reading that book not through audiobook).

Pag dumating sa point na nagpadala ako or yung reader sa tension between Mariana and Professor Fosca at mejj maexcite ako at mag look forward sa tension/ interactions nila dahil enemies to lovers vibes, meaning non psychopath talaga si Fosca at manipulative sya, kasi maski readers minamanipulate nya haha

Eto pala feeling ng manipulation from a 3rd person’s perspective hahaha

I knew it! The reading slump was from the romance driven book i was reading (but dnf now)

Pwede bang ituloy na lang yung story nina zombie

More of badass Zombie adventures and less of Cassie-Silencer lovey dovey stuff 😒 okay na sana si Cassie nung una, kaso naside track sa romance amp haha

Gusto ko lang naman magbasa ng dystopian thriller na focused sa dystopian ng mapayapa pero eto na naman po tayo deadt na deadt sa inggit sa lovelife ng iba………… FICTIONAL PA

Butttt if you’re gonna lower your expectations (lol) and accept that this book is meant to be light and to focus on romance (and not kpop, or has no plans of maximizing that kpop setting), it’s still entertaining and a fun read esp if you just want a light enjoyable passive reading
