I think I might put this on the backburner for the moment since I am working on a rewatch of the tv show and am reading the companion nonfiction book to go with it.

I feel like I’ve hit a bit of a wall and need to take a break.

My god I love this book. Why didn’t we get a really nice edition like the UK got through Waterstones?????

i am loving twig's traveling tomes so much, everett reminds me of flynn rider. so i think i will do a marathon of tangled books from chapter books, middle grade, and YA and even an adult book.

Do a sample of each book maybe?

yeah, while its not a bad book its very uneven. i mean there is a point where there is like several sex scenes back to back that go on for several pages that i just ended up skipping bc it wasn't doing anything for the plot but then the big showdown with zain's father is only a couple of pages long and he barely even features in the story prior to that.

you know what, i don't want to wait until november, its a 6 book series anyways, i probably won't even be halfway by that point so why not just go ahead now instead of waiting.

Ok, as much as I am absolutely loving this series, I want to put it on pause until the special editions come out in november and read from those copies instead.

Ok I figured out the problem this book has so much purple prose to make it look dense for its short page count. I am so not in the mood for this right now

I don’t know why I keep trying to start a 4th book with the way my anxiety and depression have been lately I need to keep it simple. I’ll come back to this later.

ok...this is a bit too gruesome and also too reminiscent of current issues that I just don't want to think about when I'm already struggling with mental health as is....I think I'll try again later down the line.

time to take a bit of a breather from too many series and add a few standalones into the mix. maybe do this for the family themed books

I think I will work on this now. I have so many books going at one time anyways that it’ll probably take me a while to finish it.

i think i might start this closer to when book 2 is released so I won't have to wait

I’m just going to use this to represent darkest heart by JC McKenzie since there doesn’t seem to be an actual Goodreads entry.

Storm sterling and Camilla evergreen have become new favorites. They are my unicorn authors bc they have written closed door “dark” rom coms. I love over the top romance heroes done in a more humorous way rather than played straight. Dark romance often feels too much like the Epstein files and I would rather read about characters that go after the bad guys like Epstein and Trump instead.
