/ich muss nachdenken/, ermahnte er sich. Er lehnte sich an die Wand und bemühte sich seine aufgewühlten Gefühle in den Hintergrund zu schieben, sie der einzigen Sache zu unterwerfen, die ihn vor dem Wahnsinn bewahren konnte: seinem Verstand. Sein Nacken und seine Schultern bebten, so sehr strengte es ihn an.

The way that me starting to listen to a podcast about sects & cults during work and the current buddy read with Bea overlap rn is a work of horrible art.

Should make a #KassnaReads goal that involves my physical books because I mostly read ebooks on my phone (weight reasons) but I also have quite a few really nice books on my shelves that I still wanna read...
(tbh I also want the next Illumicrate (for book AND goodies) but don't have a sub rn :'D)
I like the story, but... This book takes so daaaamn loooong to get to ANY point that I have already finished 2 other books in between (each in one day) and am now considering a third one to start off the year. As a person who usually doesn't read a few at the same time.

💕📚 #KassnaReads 2026 edition!
Thread of finished books for my own motivation and sometimes final thoughts gathering 🔥
2026 reading goal is as usual 15 books because it has been for years and feels good. Also my ratings are still pretty generous, I really don't care as long as it entertains me. 💕
💕📚 #KassnaReads 2025 wrap-up
Reading goal: 40/15 !! 💕
Average rating dropped from 4.5 last year to 4.37✨ thx space brick. That one also ruined the reading speed bc it took us over 4 years XD
Slowly adding favs & more stats in a thread here - the whole year of books with thoughts is in the quote! ❤️

You know what? I don't feel like ending the year on the same number of books as my age, so cozy couch time with this cutie it is. 🙏🏻

So I had to suffer through countless mentions of Achilles' pink feet, all the nice smelling foot oil, how soles flash when he runs for half the book just for the author to draw her inspiration from older sources and NOT use the whole Achilles' heel thing??
IT WASN'T EVEN FORESHADOWING?

Handpainted (and signed) by the author, released by @amrunverlag.bsky.social, dearly loved by me ❤️
Guys, I love this. Not only the story and characters, but THIS GLITTERY BEAUTY!! ✨
#KassnaReads #7SortenSchnee
Okay so while Paladin's Hope had my fav pairing so far... The plot of Paladin's Faith got me so hard?! This has no right to throw me like that!
(... Wisdom showed up and I'm in love X'D was hoping for sth like that since a few books ago.)
#KassnaReads
So while the last book had me plotwise only in the last... 20% after 100% lovey secrety drama?? I'm very happy that some progress and world stuff is happening since around the 50% mark this time around.
The isle hopping was onedimensional & full of cliché, but still better!

Can Violet get any more ✨ SpEsHuL ✨ and desired by everyone and all that jazz... The answer will surprise you.
(Not really.)
#KassnaReads Onyx Storm and finds that hardcore possessive jealousy bs so utterly BOOOORING and 100% red flag toxic
"You’re the ones acting based on feelings and with no evidence whatsoever. My decision to trust him is based purely on the facts of our proven history."
Violet. Darling. Sweet pea. Your so-called 'facts' are based on "Xaden hot oh nooooo emotions lightning bang".

💕📚 #KassnaReads 2024 wrap-up
Well, I kinda overshot my reading goal by... a whooping 40 books... after barely meeting it the past few years 💦
My average rating is 4.5✨ (told you I'm generous)
I'm adding favs & tiny stats in a smol thread - the whole year of books with thoughts is in the quote! ❤️
Had a thought if I already close my reading thread for the year, seeing how it's the evening of the 30th now and I plan on gaming _a lot_ tonight and tomorrow... But then I also go to bed at some point, and I like to read in bed for way too long and Clockwork Boys only has 230 pages :'D

Schrieb grad Mel "ich muss mich in meine Gefühle legen wie in den Schnee und so Engelchen machen" und das fasst alles gut zusammen ;;; <3<3<3
#KassnaReads #7SortenSchnee
Das most unholy screeching, das ich grad in die kalte Weite entlassen habe, und es dreht sich nicht mal um die Hauptfiguren der Geschichte, sondern um Sommerhimmelaugen & Epenmeister in einem klitzekleinen Nebensatz.
Ich bin total normal über die, seit ewig, I swear.
#KassnaReads #7SortenSchnee
Bin ein bisschen amüsiert, wie alle Aktivität bezüglich #7SortenSchnee auf Goodreads grad noch von mir und meinem an Freunde getragenen Hype ausgeht X'D
(Von StoryGraph ganz zu schweigen, wo ich die Tage damit gekämpft hab, es überhaupt somehow hinzuzufügen...)
#KassnaReads
Hab derweil mit dem eBook angefangen und OMG ICH KANN NICHT MIT FLORES warum ist der ein beb und warum hab ich Gefühle (ganz viel für Flores, ein bisschen schon für Raban (der ist grad erst aufgetaucht) und für meine eigenen OCs on top weil GRÜNDE)!!?! 😭🙏🏻❤️

Her: YOU LIED TO ME.
Him: I only wanted to work it out before talking to you bc I'm not sure what I even know and how this whole power thing works.
Her literally 1 page later: "Yeah, I’m not telling my mother anything until I work this out."

Meanwhile Styx being a real one going "you've been doing it all this time bestie, calm your flowery t1ts."
I love Styx. She's the voice of very done reason in this terrible godly teen angst.

"Oh noooes, I can't take that power from him, it's HIS realm, I shouldn't be put into that position, he'll hate me for it!"
Just a few chapters earlier, repeatedly: "MWAHAHA I'll show him how to do things right in his realm, that'll teach him! I'm SO girlboss!"
Wow.
#KassnaReads
So far we've ticked off "not like other girls uwu" & "I've just fled from a truly sheltered life, but I'm clearly so much better at everything than you because: GIRLPOWER" and a few smaller things and WOW.
Meanwhile Hades is just the world's most tired introvert.
