I feel like I didn’t read as much but maybe I’m just reading heftier books. Did come to the conclusion that I should probably only read nonfiction rather than listen. #readingisfundamental📚 #reading2025
A lovely fantasy story by S.N. Lloyd that I could recommend to absolutely anyone. Does anything I said about it pique your interest?

The Wheel of Time is going to take all my time but in a good way! #readingisfundamental📚 #reading2025
I love the way little details show the solid connections, but also the way so much was thematically mirrored through each journey.

The Bone Clocks

⭐⭐⭐1/2
Wasn't particularly a fan. Some really good bits but also some really annoying bits. Felt like I needed a glossary for the ridiculous unexplained made-up terminology in the more sci-fi/supernatural parts.

I'm not giving this a star rating because it would be zero. Not because it's a bad book but because I detest maths.

Just watched Chappell Roan's Reading performance and I'm absolutely mesmerized. That VOICE! Pure glam pop perfection - she's everything music needed right now.
Authentic artistry meets perfect timing. Pure magic.

A display of the books read for the month of July. JULY The Enterprise OF Death THE NIGHT TIGER THE SOUTHERN BOOK CLUB'S GUIDE TO SLAYING VAMPIRES Howls Moving Castle NECROSCOPE DAUGHTER OF FAIR VERONA THE ANGRL OF INDIAN LAKE MY HEART IS CHAINSAW WHAT DREAMS MAY COME DON'T FEAR THE REAPER The Apothecary Diaries Light Novels Zombie Bake-Off
Display of reading metrics for the month of July.
I flew past my 75 goal and upped it 100. Almost there. I’ll admit the Apothecary Diaries Light Novels are basically like popcorn. I’ve read 10 out of 14 so far. I’m thinking for my next long series I might give Wheel of Time a try 😅#readingisfundamental📚 #reading2025
