This probably says way too much about me but one my biggest hurdles of the past year has been adjusting to wearing pants that aren’t high waisted.

I finished reading this forever ago and I’m still thinking about it. Fantastic book. Maybe my first five star read of the year??

But if I did eat tuna I want you to know I’d never eat it with peas. That’s venturing into casserole territory!

No I’m going to tell you I don’t eat tuna

The list of things I need to get done is stressing me out so much that I haven’t started working on anything which is also stressing me out.

Probably my last book for the day!

Finished The Friendship Study & it was really good! Got a little bored towards the end but that’s a me problem since I prefer stories that are a little more plot driven.

Also finished First Time Caller. I adored it.

A fairy with golden wings.

Finished wings of starlight! I love Allison saft even though I wasn’t interested in this world.

When I saw how long her backlist was I felt so blessed lol so many books to dive into next!

This is a thread to track my weekend reads ❤️

Started with finishing up Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon! Excited to read more by her!

He saves her from a 🥣🔪 & the two of them are drawn together as they deal with their grief & trauma from the experience. Thrilling, emotional, sexy 🥵 & sweet.

I greatly enjoyed the last book in the series!

Just figure out how to live forever. That’s what I did.

60 second videos are a joke!! I have so much to say about books!!

Got super early access to one of my most anticipated reads of the year & I don’t remember the last time I’ve been so disappointed in a book 😭 I’m just going to pretend I didn’t read it & pray it doesn’t put me in a reading slump.

I’m trying to book an experience with a photographer in Edinburgh so I asked them to send me pictures they’ve taken of black people & interracial couples & they sent me back a bunch of photos of white people & told me to trust them 😐

$100k is a lot but if you’re taking out a secret loan why take out the bare minimum for one dose? Plan ahead & make it worth ruining your life over!

That’s what I was thinking! Only $100k? That’s just a poor financial decision!

I wouldn’t do anything for about 2 weeks & then I’d slowly start applying for small loans using their identity. At the 45 day mark I’d take the money from the loans, & everything in our bank accounts, & disappear.

They’ll live forever which means they’ll have plenty of time to get over it.

I haven’t started it yet! I read these back to back & figured I’d take a break before diving into Gleanings. I picked up Unwind which was very different!

I will not be posting on Tome.

It’s ugly & boring & I’m lazy.

I didn’t realize it wasn’t a trilogy until the last book 😭 I was distraught! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🥰

The first one was great!

Me too 😭 like, I read it the day I got it & I rarely do that. Maybe you’ll enjoy it more than I did!

Yeahhh, I’m curious to hear what other folks think but I was deeply disappointed. I feel like it needed to be a trilogy?? I don’t know 😭

I enjoyed So Let Them Burn but I also read a lot of YA. If you aren’t vibing with the first one I will be shocked if you end up enjoying the second one since it’s much weaker in almost every aspect
