You know I never actually read it, figured I should

Ok. Trying out a new genre. Because it's probably good for me... I guess...

"I think that I am not safe to be around, because sometimes the spirit of the fox can possess me and that's why I almost stabbed you a minute ago"
"I'm not afraid of you, I trust you"

GIRL STFU ITS NOT ABOUT TRUST STOP BEING CORNY

OF COURSE these people have a golden doodle



And of course it's got behavior problems

Also what IS a hedge fund?

Just kidding. I don't wanna know. It's made up anyway.

Wait... He bought a bunch of fancy red wine so they could store it somewhere in New Jersey???

Everything so far has been like "yeah that's insane rich people stuff, but I would do that too if I had that money" but this is baffling to me. Why own wine you can't drink or even look at?? Wtf???

Sorry mailman book, I didn't expect this hold to come in so quickly

...and now for something completely different

Favorite main character is Adolin. C'mon Shallan. See him for how wonderful he isssssss aaaahhhh

JUMP SCARE WTF 😭😭😭😭

For a second I thought maybe it was a Sazed crossover. NOPE.

I think Skar might be my favorite side character 🥹🥹🥹

FINALLY GOT IT LFGGGG

"I've never liked girls, most of my friends are guys"

...yeah. I can't say I'm surprised.

I might DNF this one. This authors Pick Me tone is giving me the ick. It's so clear she didn't make friends in HS or else she would know her experiences that she describes as being so unbelievable aren't actually that insane or special. Poison well water? C'mon. And she needs to STOP with that whole "after I tell that story people stop talking to me teehee I'm so crazy but don't know it 🤪" girl chill out.

With the insane amount of poisonings apparently going on at every single dinner in this kingdom, the food waste must be obscene! I'm also confused why she couldn't just take the antidotes beforehand and then eat all the poison stuff, could take another one after two if you want. But surely she could have a little swig of antidote in her flask at her hip or something

I'm not the biggest fan of Lift, and I'm already kinda annoyed tbh. Maybe I'll grow to love her? Even the interlude in book 2 had me feeling this way so far I'm a little disappointed that I have to read a whole (short) book about her.

AHHHHHHHHHH

Ok. I know what I literally JUST said about Sanderson, but I did not like the narrator for Isles of the Emberdark so I'm going to just wait for a physical copy and while I wait, this book came in! And I will get back to Stormlight Archives eventually... So yes. I'm reading a different Sanderson book while I wait for a Sanderson book, which I'm reading in between Sanderson books. BUT ITS NOT MY FAULT.

Ok before anyone says anything: I'm not a Sanderson fan girl or anything, but all my holds that are coming up are all him for whatever reason lol

LET'S GOOOOOO

Snakes are VENOMOUS not POISONOUS

Omfg midnight drives me CRAZY. HOW CAN YOU BE MAD AT VASILISA FOR NOT DOING SOMETHING YOU NEVER EXPLAINED!!

AHHHH I can't wait for this MFing priest to dieeeeeeeee

"how's the sodium chloride?"

...I'm not sure if I can do this

JESUS CHRIST MAGGIE SAY YOUR PIECE!! WHY ARE YOU NOT TELLING HER WHY YOU'RE HERE ANCIENT DEMONS DON'T NEED THEIR TIME WASTED!!

Oh good, Sparrowhawk is on the brink of death again

Alright, this book is pretty dang funny. I've scoffed so many times.

Ok I get that she's not trained or anything, but even so, how is this main character SO stupid if she's a PI?? I know it's unfair because as a reader I know things that are being mentioned are likely to be relevant, but still. She is just not picking up on anything and not subtle or clever at all.

Ok, I do really want to read a funny book, so let's try it again

Ok I googled "funny books" because I wanted a pallet cleanser. The reviews were positive, and one said "I went in knowing nothing, and I think you should too"
So I thought "what the heck!" And dove in.

This is a SCARY book! What the heck! But I'm super intrigued so now I guess I just have to be scared. Ugh.
