My thirst for a GOOD book needs to be quenched immediately, or I’m about to start writing the one I want to read out of pure spite. Because why have most of the books I’ve picked up these past couple of years been emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually offensive? I do not have the time, patience, or emotional resilience to read hundreds of flops just to find one win 🙏😔🙏😔

Saranya [uni- kinda ia] Nightshade (Sorrowsong uni)
The Maddest Obsession(but you might not like it. Had to give it a 3rd chance after which I LOVED it)

maybe you need a genre switch?

these are not the genres you read mainly, but:
not quite dead yet
AGGGTM series
The seven husbands of evelyn hugo
the folk in the air series


I have more but I need to know if you like these

Saranya [uni- kinda ia] haven't read these but I've heard great things abt them:
Under your scars
The Prison Healer series
The Wolf King
Six of Crows
Daughter of no worlds
Mistborn series

I think you’re right about the genre switch. I keep reaching for romance, even though I own books from other genres. Maybe it’s time I actually read them 😭🙏😭🙏
