First book of 2026, let's goooo!!!

P.S. i know I've been offline for a bit but that's just because of studying and all, but I'm definitely gonna try to read more often now!!

I REALLY want to finish this book but I'm slowly losing interest... SEND HELP 😭😭

I have a test tomorrow and I can’t stop reading.

SOMEONE TAKE THIS BOOK AWAY FROM ME PLEASEE

“I want to be in a place where I can find a beautiful man, one real man, to whisk me away from here. Not like these slobs on the bus, but someone romantic and cultured and rough all the same. Impassioned and intelligent. A man who can’t take his eyes off me.”

Girl tell me about it..

It's been a long time coming..

Finally starting this read! <3

The way I'm already obsessed and foaming at the mouth for this book doesn't even BEGIN to cover it..

I don't think my hopes have ever been higher for a book..

“I wanted to let you know we’re going on a date tomorrow, after we have dinner with your family,” he speaks with finality.

“Come again?!” 

“Maybe later.” He winks.

WTFFF?!?! A DIRTY JOKE MADE BY ROWAN GALAHAD KANE?!?! LITERALLY SCREAMING!!

“What do you like to do for fun?”

Zahra smiles.
“I like to read.” 

“For fun?” 

She ends up throwing her head back and laughing. My whole chest warms at the idea of making her laugh like that, and a little kernel of pride swells within me.

IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK AS AN ACTIVE BOOK GIRLIE?!?!

“You better have a massive dick to back up that attitude or else people will be mighty disappointed.” 

“Care to bring out a ruler and test your theory?” 

“I left my magnifying glass at home, so maybe tomorrow.”

OMG I LOVE ZAHRA SO MUCH IN THIS.. SLAY

“What the fuck are you doing, wife?”

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YESSSSSSSSS FINALLYYYYYYY

“Everyone prefers the person you portray. They never really care to get to know the person beneath. No one wants to see the broken, dark pieces of your soul. They only want to see the good, the image you portray to the world. The moment you show them the real you, they become scared or disgusted.”

AMEN.

“I hate you.”
“Hate me all you want, baby. If your hate tastes this good, I can’t imagine what your desire tastes like.”

It’s really concerning where we are in the book but I’m still LOVING it and EATING IT UP!?

I might regret posting this after I’m done with the book because I MIGHT hate it, but I had to share this with SOMEONE..

" I don't know what to tell you to make you realise what you deserve. What I do know is that you're smart, you're wicked talented and one day I love to call you my sister-in-law. If you decide thats what you want too, then I hope you find a way to work things out with him"

WHY THE FUCK AM I BAWLING MY EYES OUT 😭😭

"If I could pick only one person to be around,one person to know, one person to love, for the rest of my life - I'd choose her."

Fuck. Me.

I've been in a reading slump rn.. let's see if this helps!
