the so-called "conflict" was irritating but this is, aside from that, a cute book

Next book club read, for our retreat this weekend... it's cute. Like teeth-achingly sweet cute. Very vibey. I like the atmosphere. I think it's going to be very slice of life, which I don't usually enjoy but I'm kind of liking right now, after a lot of depressing horror reads in October lol

I am determined to finish this today because I am obsessed and loving it, just loving it

Just a little obsessed with this one...

I was expecting more spookiness and more romance and it's neither, really. It's more just kind of blah. I'm a bit down about it.

I mean... it's not good lol but it's a short, quick read so I'll finish it I guess.

This book is so long that when I took my lunchtime walk I only managed to listen to an additional 2% of the audiobook... it'll be Feb by the time I finish this one. I do like the vibes but why does it have to be so loooooonggg

This is like John Wick but with cats and magic instead of dogs and guns lol

It's all very surface level of course but I'm enjoying it and I like the art a lot.

wow this is a YA written for 10 year olds, what is this writing

I love the illustrations and comics that go with the story! So fun. The story itself is fine. I enjoy the audiobook as well - they do occasional fun production tricks to go with the some of the comics. I'm glad I picked up the book today (I have the audiobook through NetGalley).

Is this self-indulgent? If it feels like it was written to be quoted? I mean I'm liking it alright, and I love the audiobook narrator's voice (Rosa Escoda - her voice is so soothing lol), but like...

I did love Welcome to the Hyunum Dong Bookshop though, so I'm going to continue.

Finally in the mood to continue this - not enjoying the fact it's reminding me Chuck Wendig's The Staircase in the Woods, which I didn't love, but this is Courtney Gould who has not yet let me down... so I have hopes this will be something new and different from that.
