Me @ Zain: LEAVE HER ALONE, GET A JOB

The word 'dust'/'dusty' has probably been used 20 times by now... we get it

The age gap is a bit... you know... but damn, do I love the way Silvia Moreno-Garcia writes romance

I'm one chapter in and I laughed three times already. Unheard of.

Not sure if this is a standalone that's going to wrap up A LOT of things in the last 50 pages, or if this is a first book in a series and it's just not mentioned anywhere 🤔

Literally tearing people to pieces, go off 👑

Not fully sure what's going on but I'm kind of into it

I need publishers to stop putting books in PDF format on NetGalley, my eyesight is bad enough without dealing with a tiny font pLEASE

I had some mixed feelings about the first half but the drama that's going down right now is delivering 🙊

Listen, as an Israeli, I'm going to say this as respectfully as I can - writing that the origin of falafel might be Israel doesn't add up on so many levels. It just doesn't make sense. I can assume what the author means but still...

I liked the first part about the mom, but I'm not loving the rest so far tbh

I'm not veru sure why, but I'm enjoying this atm looool

Not sure how much I'm liking the love interest tbh

This is one of the most wholesome books I've ever read, if not the most wholesome

Did I read the whole Shadow and Bone Trilogy? no
Did I pick this book up because I need any sort of Grishverse content after binge watching S2? Yes
Am I curious about Zoya and Nikolai's romance after one scene? ABSOLUTLEY

Loving the way bell hooks discusses feminist masculinity
