So far, I'm really, really confused and not even sure what to expect 😭 I'm 21% in and I feel like nothing really happened, but I really like the way the book shown OCD, at least up to this point

ObscureVi is 38% done
Part one done, three more left, but I think it's time to take a break since it's almost 11PM and the book is becoming even more confusing to me and I'm afraid that the late hour is definitely not helping with understanding anything lol

so far? more things started to happen, but not enough for me to be like: yeah, I'm enjoying it

I feel like the premise is not really delivering, at least not to me/not right now

Thank you 🄺 I really hope I will leave the "books that didn't deliver for me" limbo, because so far, this year I had almost as much 2 stars as I had three stars 😭

I KNOW I WANTED TO READ MORE THIS YEAR AND I AM (AND I'M HAPPY), BUT SO MANY NOT SO GREAT BOOKS WEREN'T THE PLAN LMAO

My friend says I'm a masochist and he's probably right, because I don't DNF, like ever. I always finish something, even if it will take me a long time 😭 the infamous record so far was... I think over a year?

I hope so too, because at those 200-something-ish ratings I have only six, I think? šŸ™ˆ but at least I have a lot more of four star reads and those are good too!

Lmaoooo, ur friend might be right if u kept that record for about a year... I read this one book before (kotlc 8.5) and it basically has files and more files and some boring stuff (not rly) about their world and there was interactive stuff (quizzes, coloring page, etc) and a novella. I skipped 100 pages of the files cs I was getting into a reading slump cs of that, I can't believe how u do it 😭

Dangggg, one 6 out of about 200 rating?!?! thats sadddd, I guess the four star ratings are good but only 6 five star rating for that many is rlyyy little. I just know ur nxt read it gonna be a five (IT BETTER BE or else I will find the author hehe) šŸ¤ž

I probably really am, knowing how many bad horror movies I watched knowing well it will be a one star, yet I still did it 🤣

Oh, Keeper of the Lost Cities! I saw this series recently and wondered if I should read it šŸ‘€ We got the first... I think 7 books translated before the publishing house decided to do a magic trick and say they're disappearing off the grid and won't finish it.

YOU JUST MADE ME LAUGH, THANK YOU, I HOPE I PICK THE RIGHT AUTHOR THEN 🤣

If i even have the slightest feeling that the horror movie but not be bad, I'm never touching it again (this is prolly cs I'm not the biggest fan of horror movies, hehe)

Kotlc is pretty good but the more u get into the series, the more she stretches it out and it might get boring for some. The books are also veryyy long like 700-800 pages or smth each book and we have 12 books in total with the 12th one releasing nxt year. Argggg why would they not translate the rest of the series and why did they have to stop on the second worst book in the series (imo) AHHH

yay, glad I made someone laugh! Yes, let's hope you do so I wont have to find them.

Also, hv u ever read or heard about the book Fourth Wing? It's on of my favs!

I'm a big horror girlie, probably because I watched them as a teen and it stuck with me, despite them not really scarying me? like the only horror type that really makes me scared/jumpy are the games lol

holy, so they're thicc! I hate when publishers suddenly drop the translations, even more when they just act like they didn't exist in the first place and ignore all the messages lol. I'm happy that I can read in english, so finishing it won't be a problem, but still, annoying :( I WILL REMEMBER THE COMMENT ABOUT IT BEING THE SECOND WORST ONE

I needed the laugh, so I'm grateful!

I have heard about it. I haven't read it yet... and I own all three books, whoops.


-: ✧☾Parnika-semi-hiatus☽✧ :- I used to get nightmares from horror movies so I stopped watching them unless i'm at my friends and they watch it lol. The games dont rly scare me that much, I enjoy them usually :)

They areeee, it takes me atleast a week to finish one (im a slow reader and I cant be reading all the time sadly :c) That honestly sounds so annoying but glad u can read in english too! I dont rly like book 7 cs it kinda focuses on a ship that I dont like and they barely do anything, except near the end they do stuff and it gets interesting

awww, it makes me so happy I made someone laugh! šŸ’“šŸ„¹

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, YOU SHOULD DEF READ IT SOONNNNN!!!

I don't really have anyone to watch them with irl, but at least I can watch them with my horror loving friend through discord, but since we're not really scared by them, usually it's making jokes at stupid plot lol.

You might be a slow reader, but at least you enjoy reading and that's what is the most important!

ā¤ļøšŸ„ŗ

I'VE BEEN WANTING TO READ THEM, BUT I'M SO INDECISIVE AND I NEVER KNOW WHAT TO READ UNLESS I PICK SOMETHING RANDOMLY

lolll, I think I only watch 2 with my friends before and it was Time cut and Countdown. They were pretty good except I dont think I got a chance to finish Countdown before.

YESSSS FOR SURE!! šŸ’ž

LOLLLL, SO REAL THOOOO
Like there r wayyyy too many books on my tbr that I can't pick which one I wanna read, but I still add more books whenever the cover looks pretty (yes, I judge a book by it's cover hehe) or when some gave it a really good review.

Haven't see Time Cut yet, but I did watch Coundown and had fun! Maybe cause I like anything that gives even tiny Final Destination vibes.

I wish we had an option to just... randomly pick a book here? BECAUSE I WON'T ADD 14K BOOKS TO A RANDOM PICK WHEEL FOR SURE

also a mood, I just browse goodreads, see a cover, peak at the genre and go like: you look good, onto my gonna buy list XD

Time cut was rly good imo but I dont think it was that scary. Oooo yay, glad u liked countdown! yess if does give final destination vibes!

OMG YESSSS, THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!!! I was honestly debating whether I should make a wheel or not (I think I had somewhere near like 500 books at that time...) and I told myself I would prolly be able to do it if I just add the name of the series but I ended up not doing it cs I was too lazy to add hundreds of book names to a wheel

lolll, yessss, all a book needs are those requirements and ur being added to my tbr

Also, im about to go to bed rn since it's like 2am and I have to wake up at 6 tmr... hehe
have a great day/evening/night! Byeeeee!
