I was so sure this was going to make my faves. Instead, it’s making me low key anxious and also bored with a moment of intrigued only here or there. I think the musings on the morality of AI, while I think really important, is making me feel disconnected from the characters themselves.

Yearly reread.

Sick in bed and miss the heck out of Goodreads. What better thing to do today than rest and catch up on here.

There is a reason this book is on lists this year. It’s so good but very sad.

There are no words to capture the profound sadness I feel over the death of Sophie Kinsella...

I know my story isn't unique: I discovered the incomparable Madeline Wickham in my early twenties, and the rest as they say, is history. So today, I am thinking of her and her beautiful family, and am forever grateful for the way she reignited my love of reading.

I could not finish 2025 without reading one of my most anticipated books.

His writing is amazing. His plots are just not my vibe I think. But I am very taken with his style of storytelling and can appreciate how well written this book is. I’m enjoying it, but it’s a lot more violent grit than I tend to like.

Beta read and I cannot wait for the world to experience it!

Reading for book club. It’s cute.

I really need to write a review again one of these days lol.
