pick#Read2025
My last book of November, completed tonight for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 Its age (published in 1901) shows it the storytelling & some of the 8 stories were not that great, but I liked a few & it was mildly enjoyable so I‘ll give it a soft pick for nostalgia. 🐉💚
Sometimes I'll read a book on Bookey just because I'm short on time and it's convenient. I've been reading The Assassin's blade and I am kinda shocked I'm enjoying it because I'm not the biggest fan of Sarah J's writing but even in short form the story is engaging and I'm wondering where she went wrong on ACOTAR

Spending my #HyggeHour on the couch finishing up my last book of November for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 🐉
I‘m (sadly) starting my last bag of stuffing popcorn🍿😢 & drinking a spiced pear Hint water (one of their holiday flavors).🍐
Mood is really not at all ready for Monday & a new busy workweek. 😵💫
so-soToasty autumn gothic aesthetic wrapped around an Alice-in-Wonderland plot backgrounding teenage drama morphing into multiple therapeutic encounters.
When I say it left me wanting more, I mean that in both senses.
It ended a bit too abruptly, it could have had better pacing, it involved A LOT of young adults emoting/yelling at each other. 1/?
pickThis is a book about monsters - but this is a photo of a baby Orca! Not a monster I promise! 😍
Cleaning up my Kindle and read this Victoria Schwab in a single afternoon. Just a fast paced dystopian with monsters - reminded me a little bit of Arcane (not so complex though) or Naomi Novik‘s Scholomance series. Definitely my wheelhouse.
so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was going to rate “The Wild Huntress” higher, however I wasn‘t a fan of the betrayal, a certain character‘s unnecessary death, and the overall ending of this story. I appreciated the epilogue and the last chapter, however I wish the plot had turned out differently.
These are what I'm aiming to read this month. the tagged because it was already on the go. Hot wax is on position 10 of my list. i will get a list post together ASAP! #castthedie @PuddleJumper
Introducing my new reading buddy, Tiramisu! She‘s three years old, and she was a good mama to her kitten but now wants to live a quiet life as an only cat. We‘re still adjusting to each other, but I‘m so happy to have a cat in the household again.
I‘m not sure yet how I feel about the tagged book. It‘s for a new book club…

so-soUnpopular opinion:
I have mixed feelings. The book is very dark academia oriented, but I found the characters unlikeable, and Hell had a lot of boring moments. I wanted a scary, richly detailed, demonic Hell. This is not that, but it did make the professors look like monsters. It struck me as a little pretentious. I will have to sit with it for awhile.
