Kylo Ren really set the standard for tall scary men with scars on their face huh

I got played and now have to read the sequel so I can watch the show. Kindle got my $8.99 for being a captive audience.

It’s tiiiiiiiiimeeeeeeeeee

Ok in my defense I missed Halloween and I need to get spooky season out of my system before I can transition to thanksgiving and christmas and this novella series is it.

We were on a great streak but this is so so so bad

Second chance trope + “I’m so old and crusty at age 31” trope?? 😡

Six chapters in and this book is so funny, please don’t let this end up being one of the super weird Tessa Baileys please.

I got the arc!!!! So excited for my girl Sue Lynn Tan to emotionally destroy me once again! 🌸✨💀

Spooky season has officially begun!!!

Why is this so much longer than it needs to beeeeeeeeeeee

Reading this so I can watch the movie with Rosamund Pike. 2 chapters in and it’s already the most 2012 thing I’ve ever read.

I have been informed this is in fact not the last book in the series and I am questioning my life atm

So many loose plot lines and only… 757 pages to tie them all out… how will SJM do it???

Villain mode let’s go!

5 ebook pack from Libby, rip to my productivity for the next 14 days

Y’all I am scared and haven’t even made it past the map and character pronunciation guide.

Not in Love is my #1 Ali Hazelwood book, so I have been counting down days to this… but… just started the audiobook… and…. I can’t. I am sure the male narrator has a very lovely Connor voice, but I cannot STAND his Eli voice and I will not have my favorite book boyfriend slandered like that.

Options (taking odds):
- suck it up (free on Spotify)
- Libby hold (26 weeks)
- ebook ($11)
- paperback ($17)

Someone pls change my Libby PIN so I cool it with these rom coms but also I love Alaska!

Five years late to the party but here we go!

About to drive an hour plus across town during rush hour, hello emotional support audiobook

I’m so scared to read / listen to this book but I have this terrible urge to read the full Tessa Bailey lineup

I am sick but I have the Annabel Monaghan ARC so it’s fine

Oh my goodness, wow. Review incoming.

This book is going to hurt me. Somehow just now remembering there are no happy endings in Wuthering Heights. Yikes.

Botanical horror botanical horror botanical horror!!!!! This is so my favorite ARC so far.

Also one of the MMCs is named Laurie which I cannot decouple from Little Women so I am just imagining semi-evil Timothee Chalamet and it’s perfect

Turns out what is angsty and dramatic behavior on the moors in the 1800s is agitating and eye-roll-worthy in the 2000s.

Wuthering Heights on Ice, here we go! I am very excited for the concept and impending drama and turmoil, but I am a bit nervous on the interview-style writing. Not my favorite format. We’ll see!!

I have read two pages and am already so excited!!! Daughter of the Moon Goddess changed my brain chemistry, and I already know this one is going to be amazing.

Got this book from my favorite YouTuber Grady from Practical Engineering. Im not sure when I became the “has a favorite YouTuber” type but I suspect I am potentially just a huge nerd.

Am I reading this book for the 3rd time in 1.02 calendar years? Yes. However, in my defense:

a) Every book on the Goodreads Sweet & Spicy challenge I’ve either already read or have zero interest in, and the ones I could force myself to read all have a 12 week wait on Libby - no

b) I AM GOING TO CERN NEXT WEEK so I really do need to brush up on my particle physics anyway

c) This is my fav Ali Hazelwood, sue me
