This book is a thick one! I like it and its super high energy but I am exhausted by it all.
How can they keep this going?!

I didn't realize how fun litRPG books could be!

Picked this one back up for the spice

Picked this one back up after a hiatus - back in a witchy mode.

What in the running man, Minecraft, hunger games is going on?! Love this!

I have to shelf this one. I can't make myself care enough to finish this one and its been almost 3 months....

I will try again next year.

I am really enjoying this eARC
The world building has been simple enough to follow along but the biggest theme so far has been overcoming grief and as someone who has experienced this level of grief in my 20s, like the FMC, its very relatable.

I am looking forward to seeing her healing journey proceed.

this has been a struggle and I hate that for me.

I feel like I’m in a fever dream… wtf is happening and whose perspective am I reading?!

Reread in progress. I forgot how much I love angry Poppy, she is so much more enjoyable at this point in the journey...

Re-reading this series in prep for the newest book in the sister series that releases in September.

I think I am too far gone down the dark side since I am half way through this angsty teen romance and I am sooooo bored. I wanted to read this because I want to hit play on the TV show, but seriously if the TV show is like this, then I think I need to skip it.

This is one of the toughest reads - it’s raw and graphic and painful. This is very hard to process, but I’m invested and am going to see this story through

Well christ, this is already very fucking sad.

If system of a down was entered into ChatGPT when asked to bring their music to life in the form of a literary character, this would be Dianna.

enemies are turning into friends....
(kicking my legs and giggling)

This FMC is morally grey and I love it. However, the fuck is going on in this world? I have no clue what and who the creatures and people of this world are or why they are like this, so I am hoping this book gets a bit more descriptive.

Doing the EOS / TOD Tandem Read - buckle up kiddos.

TOG Re-read time. I haven't stopped thinking about this series for the last two years, so I am gobbling it up again.

God dang Raven, why are you like this?!? Why you got to do her dirty like this?!

I’ve never wanted to both throw a book at the wall and devour it more than at this moment. Seriously?!?! Come on raven kennedy!

Book quote of the day
But the eyes of liars are tricky things. They can show you what you want to see without ever reflecting the truth. It’s best not to look a liar in the eye. They’re so good at their own compulsions that their gazes hold steady, and then you’re the one who loses sight.  

I freaking knew it! Twisty twist

I am glutton for punishment...
