i have seen nothing but amazing reviews for this book so far and with only being 68 pages in I can already see why. this book has been nonstop action and insanity since like page 2... can't wait to read more later.

The read now section on NetGalley is both the best and worst thing that has ever happened to me....

the BEST because I have found so many amazing books (and I am SUPER excited for this one in particular)

the worst because I am just trying to get that ratio back to 80% but I keep downloading more books... oops...

do you ever start reading a book by a new to you author and you immediately go to the authors goodreads or storygraph or website to see if they have published any other books?!? because that is currently me. I am having so much fun with this book already!

it's so simple actually... if Saara El-Arifi writes a book I am going to read it!!!!! I am absolutely loving this one so far and do NOT want to put it down but alas a girl must work (i hate it here!)

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an early digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

One of the POV characters names is Calliope and I love her already because I absolutely LOVE that name! (I don't make the rules)...

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an early digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I am about halfway done now and I am having SO MUCH fun with this book! I will definitely be finishing it today.

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Children's Books for this early advanced copy. I can't wait to get started! :)

Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for an early copy of this book because i am SO EXCITED for this one!!!! :)

Thank you NetGalley for an early copy of this book! I know that we are cutting this one close to the publication date, but I KNOW i will be able to do it! :)

first book of the year. LETS GO!!!!

also this cover is absolutely stunning <3

this book has me absolutely hooked. I can't wait to keep reading after work!

This book is so much fun so far! I can't wait to keep reading more!

i can definitely tell that this was the author's first book because it hasn't gripped me as much as home before dark, the last time i lied, and the only one left, but I am still having fun!

going to try to start being way more active on here!

i definitely had one of the worst reading summers because life kept getting in the way, but I am back and excited to be reading and reviewing again! :)

if there is one thing to know about me it is that I love Jordan Chiles and this book is making me love her even more!

This is my third Riley Sager book and I am absolutely flying through them all. I usually pick these books as my BOTM when they are released but for whatever reason it took me forever to start reading them but now I am HOOKED!

I can't wait to keep reading more of this one on my lunch break. :)

I don't think this is going to be my favorite Vincent Ralph book but it is also very accurate to the times we are in today with dealing with AI and deep fakes... I am still enjoying this book though and I will probably finish it today or tomorrow. :)

This book is starting off a little on the slower side but I also feel like since it's still early in the story it will definitely pick up the pace soon. The story is definitely keeping me intrigued though so I will definitely keep reading!

went to the local library on a whim the other day for my lunch break and saw this cover and IMMEDIATELY knew that I had to borrow this book...

only got to read a few pages before clocking in for work today but I will read more during my lunch break.

I KNEW IT!!!! UPDATING HERE BECAUSE I KNEW IT!!!!

i need to keep reading…. 👀

finally going to be reading the cosmere this year! 📚

Will this book be able to beat Book Lovers?!?!?

I guess we will have to wait and see... I am really enjoying it so far.

I just started it this morning on the train to work but I really like both Daphne and Miles so far!

I started watching the TV show and got distracted because it is one of my favorite shows so I have now watched past where I am reading in the books... but I WILL get back to the books this week!

I will definitely be finishing this book during my lunch break!

I am re-watching the series on Netflix again and figured it was about time that I actually finished reading all of the books.

I have previously read the first 9 or 10 but I will be re-reading them all now and finally finishing the last few.

I love this series so much!!!

Destiny is All! :)

I usually don't mind working, but I JUST WANT TO FINISH THIS BOOK... SO I AM OVER WORK TODAY... JUST LET ME READ...

In all seriousness though I will definitely be finishing this book tonight!!!

i WILL be reading more of this book this weekend! I don't want to take it out of my house because it has been raining all week and this book is too pretty to risk water damage, but every page that I have read so far is setting up for an amazing story and I can't wait to spend more time reading!!!

I am absolutely flying through this book because I do not want to put it down ever... unfortunately I have work until 5PM today but I will be reading more during my lunch break and hopefully finishing this book today!

I know it has only been 51 pages but I already have a feeling that this might be one of my favorite books of 2024!
