post-Throne of Glass, I’m ready to give ACOMAF another go... I remember liking it *much* more than ACOTAR, and worst case, I still have the rest of TOG waiting for me :))

it’s timeeee >:)

the slowest of burns, but I love ittt 🥹

against my better judgment, I have once again returned to the Summer Lovin’ collection 🤠

booktok teaches me the same lesson every time and somehow I never learn

finding out this book is 600+ pages and the audiobook is 17 hours long was... rough 😭 w peace and love, I'm not sure we need all that

halfway in and still TBD on Yesteryear, but I will say it was an excellent book club pick because the gc has THOUGHTS!! everyone seems to have a completely different opinion, and I loveee it

for better or worse, we’re onto the next one 🤠

we're doing it!! and just in time for book club... tomorrow, lol 😭

hoping this collection evicts every anxious thought in my brain right now because something’s gotta give 😭

Zanders is going to have to have one hell of a character arc for me to get on board lol 😭

quick wintertime novella to interrupt our regularly scheduled programming ☃️

onto something cute and easy while I spend the next however many hours switching between spreadsheets for work and spreadsheets for school :’)

started Misadventures of an ABG after reading Issa Rae’s Amazon collection/miniseries and now I need to rewatch Barbie asappp 💖

loveee Issa Rae and definitely need a pick-me-up right now :( 💛

started with In Her Own League but realized that even though it technically works as a standalone, I was missing out on sooo many cute family/background stories 😭 rewind!!

my buddy reader insists the perfect reading combo is one 🌶️ romance + one psychological thriller at the same time and I’m about to find out if she’s onto something

loving how Intimacies balances these massive, ethically fraught situations (violence, infidelity, literal war crimes??) with such a restrained, character-driven style. all the tension comes through observation and internal discomfort. veryyy lit-fic

oh no?? this is devastating 🥲

haven’t actually read the Ivy Years series, I’m just sad and needed a pick-me-up and Reddit recommended this as “cute romance novellas,” so here we areee

so excited to start!! now taking bets on how many times I cry lol 😭

One Killer Night is fullyyyy committed to slasher logic. nobody calls the cops, nobody locks their doors, everyone makes terrible choices… and I’m still having a p good time 🤪🔪

as a WOC adopted by white parents, I really relate to Goldie 🥹 I love seeing this in an FMC!! it’s so rare

reading? in this economy (midterms)?

absolutely inhaling this book before my movie tomorrow. wish me luck 🚀

Rocky, my beloved <3

a little late to the party, but love Navessa Allen 🖤

this should be stressful but i’m having the best time lol 🚀

switching it up with something cute and vday coded 💕

this is my first time getting into thrillers/horror (still not 100% sure of the difference lol), but so much of what I’ve read centers on a woman seeing or experiencing something terrible and then being gaslit by her husband into thinking she’s crazy :( really don’t love it
