Tell me why I started to gaslight myself into believing that maybe they wouldn’t die in the end 😭

“I cannot tell you how to mourn me. I cannot convince you to not feel guilty if you forget the anniversary of my death, or if you realize days or weeks or months have gone by without thinking about me. I just want you to live.”

I am fucking obsessed with the banter

I loathe Goodreads for removing the tracking of how ahead or behind I am on my reading goal! That was the main function of the app for me. Does anyone know of a different app that tracks your reading goals similarly to how Goodreads used to do it? I’m in the market 😭

Oh I’m IN in it

I’m not completely in this just yet

Me: I need something light to read as a distraction from the world

Also me: how about a book about a dead sister

Single handedly getting me out of my major reading slump ❤️‍🔥

I could read the comsmere until I die

I WAITED 16 WEEKS ON LIBBY FOR YOU BABY!!! LFGGGGG

b-sandy they could never make me hate u

Cause im innn too deep, and I'm tryin' to keep. Up abooove in my head, instead of goin' underrrrr

Man I am soooo in it

I feel like all Riley Sager books read the same. I can guess the plot outcome in the first 20-30 pages and then everything happens as I expect it to. I still enjoy them, but I feel like I keep waiting for them to surprise me even one time. Hopefully this one does that? (Not feeling likely at this point)

The Sandverse has me in a CHOKEHOLD. How is every single one so GOOD

Running theory that somehow Vin is Mare’s child (and potentially Kelsier’s?? 👀)

Let’s fucking GOOOOOO I’m pumped!!!

This book is my first dip into the Brandon Sanderson universe…. I am now intimidated and afraid of how much I will simply HAVE to consume based on how GOOD this is

"Do you want to talk about it now?"
"Talk about what," I say.
"Your dick dad," he replies.
"Maybe you didn't notice," I say, "but that 'dick' is essentially universally loved."
"By strangers," Miles says. "By people who don't know him or need anything from him. Excuse me if I don't find that impressive."


The way I SOBBED at this part.. I felt so seen. Everyone loved my mom, but only because they didn’t know her.

I want to read something devastating that I can't put down. Please drop your recs below!

(I love fantasy/romantacy/coming of age/overcoming trauma/death)

“What do I get?” 😩😩🫠🫠🫣🫣

“People who lacked emotional engagement in childhood, men and women alike, often can’t believe that someone would want to have a relationship with them just because of who they are. They believe that if they want closeness, they must play a role that always puts the other person first.”

“These children may learn to put other people's needs first as the price of admission to a relationship. Instead of expecting others to provide support or show interest in them, they may take on the role of helping others, convincing everyone that they have few emotional needs of their own. This tends to create even more loneliness, since covering up your deepest needs prevents genuine connection with others.”

"I know you have suspected much of what you are about to hear. And I am here to tell you that you have been right all along."

I, too, have a love/hate relationship with tiny spaces and massive sexual tension

Okay, I need some recommendations.

I am really enjoying my Emily Henry era, but also wishing for a biiiit more spice. I want the phenomenal writing, non-toxic love interests but with more *zest* if you know what I mean. Why does it so often feel like good writing and good spice are not compatible? (I know this isn’t actually true, but I would love some examples to further prove it wrong!)

The perfect book to finish on the plane tomorrow as I go on vacation ✈️✈️

“In my favorite books, it’s never quite the ending I want. There’s always a price to be paid. Mom and Libby liked the love stories where everything turned out perfectly, wrapped in a bow, and I’ve always wondered why I gravitate toward something else. I used to think it was because people like me don’t get those endings. & asking for it, hoping for it, is a way to lose something you’ve never even had.“

I’m innnnnn it
