I need to read this in doses... it's a very heavy topic. It feels crazy how little I knew about this intense conflict!

This is for you @Olivia

Sorry everyone for the bombardment of updates but we are baaaaaaack (had to plug in all my 2025 books etc)

the roommates of 10 Homer have moved over to Fable (way more user friendly than Storygraph). Add me there!! It’s way better than Goodreads! Username: Madeline Harrant

Hello my lovely friends! I have been using goodreads since 2012 and this has been my favorite app. But, in light of the current social climate and asshole billionaires - I am making the move finally over to storygraph. I’m probably going to use this a little longer while I acclimate to the learning curve of a new platform, but here is my storygraph username: @msylvia. please follow me there!

Listening while working... it took so long to hear from Frodo's/Sam's part of the journey but when it switched I was laughing at how they were tired from traveling... meanwhile everyone else was dealing with absolute chaos

Having doubled my course load for grad school while working full time has really stunted my reading this year already

Still waiting for the Frodo/Sam pov but I’m patient

The way the covers were all updated to be cute except for THIS ONE

Frodo (and Sam): we have to leave the others, they’re in so much danger with us. they will be safe without us.

Merry and Pippen going on the side adventure of a lifetime and being in constant perilous danger: uhhhm…

safe to say I’m entertained

okay listen. LISTEN. okay? we listen and we don’t judge. also for whatever reason this book is funny as hell. if you follow me on here it’s like - you shouldn’t be shocked

Objectively, this book is really good... subjectively, getting me to read this is like pulling teeth

This is so slow going haha

Forcing myself to put the book down for bed

So this was inspired by Caraval so I had to of course read it. Also a sucker for a gothic setting

Now that your girl is in grad school it is going to be a lot of really easy entertaining reads and rereads so I can decompress

This is a general update for the people. I have finally caved and decided to read the Rina Kent universe. So in the near future, prepare for a TON of that. Thanks team
