I’ve read a lot of food writing but nothing has made me as hungry as this. Early on Yuzuki describes a bowl of rice with butter and just a drop of soy sauce and it sounds like ecstasy. I was sorely tempted to get out of bed and make myself a bowl immediately. I refrained, but I have since developed a butter habit that my bank balance does not approve of.  “This was all it took, she thought, to experience a sense of satisfaction of a kind she’d not had before. To make something yourself that you wanted to eat and eat it the way you wanted — was that the very essence of gratification? Until not long ago, she’d had no idea what it was that she wanted to eat, but since she’d begun using her kitchen, she was becoming able to picture, albeit vaguely, the objects of her desires.”   This book was an odd kind of comfort to me because, at the time of reading, I’d been cooking only for myself while my partner was working away from home for a time. I knew that food and eating would be one of the bigger challenges for me while he was away and I was proven right. This book, which focuses so acutely on one woman’s appetite, was a reminder that I should think as much about myself as I do others when it comes to food. So I dug out Nigella’s Cook Eat Repeat (written when she was largely on her own during COVID lockdowns) and set about restoring my own appetites. Sure this book has a crime thriller plot, but at its heart, it’s about self-discovery, identity and found family. I thought it was surprisingly warm, but that might also have been all the melting butter and steaming bowls of rice.  #books #reading #butter #asakoyuzuki #translatedfiction #fiction #novel #literature #contemporarynovel #contemporaryfiction #litfic #womenwriters #literaryfiction #bestsellers #bookstagram #instaread #instabook #igreads #igbooks #bibliophile #booklover #bookreview #bookcover #booklife #bookaesthetic #bookphotography #newreleasebooks #pancakes #breakfast

ENG-NL --- *Review copy* Let's see which tropes are collected here: fake dating, enemies to lovers and he falls first. At first glance, this book has everything to make a successful romcom. Good even, with the added element of a Spanish main character. There is enough about the story that works: relatively enough build-up for the two characters, it reads quite smoothly in certain parts and the atmosphere for a summer love story is there. Yet, the basic elements are somewhat unstable. Personally, I think the story is described in too much detail. That makes the story long-winded; some pages could've easily been pruned. Besides, after admiring Aaron a few times I had had enough. (The buff men in similar fiction are starting to annoy me.) It also takes a while before we can set foot on Spanish soil. A shame with a title like this one. All in all, I enjoyed reading this book. If you are looking for something to dream away on a beach, then feel free to take this book with you. My rating: 3 out of 5 stars Q: Which BookTok hit did you read recently? --- *Recensie-exemplaar* Eens kijken welke tropes er hier o.a. verzameld zijn: fake dating, enemies to lovers en hij valt eerst op haar. Op het eerste zicht heeft dit boek alles om een geslaagde romcom te maken. Goed zelfs, met het extra element van een Spaans hoofdpersonage. Er is genoeg aan het verhaal dat werkt: relatief genoeg opbouw naar de twee personages, het leest best vlot in bepaalde stukken en de sfeer voor een zomers liefdesverhaal is aanwezig. Toch zijn de basiselementen wat onstabiel. Persoonlijk vind ik dat het verhaal te uitvoerig beschreven is. Dat maakt het verhaal langdradig; er hadden makkelijk wat pagina's kunnen gesnoeid worden. Trouwens, na een aantal keer Aaron te bewonderen had ik er al genoeg van. (De gepolijste mannen in vergelijkbare fictie beginnen me de strot uit te komen.) Het duurt ook even tegen we een voet op Spaanse grond kunnen zetten. Spijtig met een titel als deze. Al bij al heb ik me wel vermaakt bij het lezen van dit boek. Als je iets zoekt om weg te dromen op een strand, dan neem je gerust dit boek mee. Mijn rating: 3 op 5 sterren Q: Welke BoekTok-hit heb jij recent gelezen? - 👒 -

(Day 3) #DailyReview #ReviewbyVia #Selenophile TisaTS @agie_hatami @tisapinkluv Apa yang aku suka dari novel Selenophile ini? *** Pertama, aku suka banget sama mendeskripsian latarnya yang detail banget jadi bikin aku betah buat baca, nggak ngebosenin sama sekali. Kedua, ada beberapa kutipan yang menurutku itu bagus banget dan related banget. "Hidupku seperti teka-teki yang rumit dan sulit, tidak ada petunjuk dalam setiap pertanyaannya, hanya mengandalkan akal dan logika, tanpa melibatkan rasa." -- page 26 "Lidah memang tidak bertulang, namun lidah dapat menjadi pedang paling tajam sedunia. Aku percaya perkataan dan ucapan seseorang menjadi tolak ukur atas kepribadiannya, itu sebabnya penting untuk berpikir terlebih dahulu sebelum berbicara." --page 32 "Petrichor. Istilah untuk aroma khas antara air hujan dan tanah." *** Sebenarnya masih banyak banget yang pengen aku ceritain tentang kisah Kiara yang sangat sangat mengharukan ini. Tentang sakitnya Ayah Damar, permasalahan Tante Dewi, sahabat-sahabat Kiara, masa lalu Kiara, dan seseorang yang akan jadi masa depannya Kiara. Sebenarnya agak pusing juga sih aku pas ngikutin alurnya secara terlalu banyak kejutan-kejutan yang nggak aku sangka sebelumnya. Sedikit bertele-tele juga pas dimana Kiara ketemu cowok di masa lalunya dan flashback dimana awal ketemu mereka itu. Aku kira mereka bakal jalin hubungan lagi dan bikin nambah masalah baru, nyatanya memang hanya diceritakan sekilas saja. #lovebooks #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booksaddict #reviewer #booksread #bookreview #booklover #booknerd #bookrecommendations #GAHunter #bookworm #book #booksread #books #bookholic #bookphotography #bookcommunity #bookblogger #booklife #bookobsessed #bookclub #bookaesthetic #bookquotes

✨Book Review ✨ Adding to my dragon obsession is When the Moon Hatched by @sarah.a.parker.author with an absolutely stunning book. The world building is absolutely amazing, the characters so well built and the plot is off right from the start. It really ensnared me. Do not be discouraged by the glossary in the beginning! I heard about it and it did make me hesitate at first but it is such a unique and rich world that it helped and really captured my attention to learn of it before diving in. It is quick to read through, and then the book itself while long did not feel quite so long at all when reading! For a unique take on fantasy and a world of dragons, of fae and magical creatures as well as a heartbreaking romance that makes you eager for the next book, then this one is definitely one I’d recommend. I cannot wait for my special editions to start coming in, here’s hoping to snag Fairyloot’s edition as well! 🤞💕 Has anyone read this yet? Dragon garland is from @thebookishbox and the Fourth Wing bookends is from @unpluggedbookbox both of which I love having on my dragon shelves! 🖤 . #bookreview #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookgram #bookcommunity #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #booklover #booklove #booklife #booknerd #bookdragon #dragonfantasy #dragonbooks #books #bookaddict #arizonabookstagram #bookstagramaz🌵 #romantasy #romantasybooks

🌷Novel 30 Juz🌷 Penulis : Romee Genre : Romance Islami Penerbit : @id.akad Halaman : 320 Rate :4.8/5✨ 🪴🌺🪴🌺🪴🌺 Nabi Adam pernah LDR ( long distance relationship ) dengan Hawa selama ratusan tahun karena sebuah kesalahan dan akhirnya Allah persatukan kembali di Jabal Rahmah . Lalu , ada cinta beda usia antara Zulaikha - yang memendam perasaan - kepada Nabi Yusuf dan kemudian Allah pertemukan kembali saat Zulaikha ditinggal wafat oleh suaminya dan ia menjadi pribadi yang lebih baik . Tak kalah menarik , kisah Ali bin Abi Thalib dengan anak Rasulullah Saw . , Fatimah , melalui persyaratan mahar yang luar biasa . Dari sini lah banyak melahirkan kisah romansa Islam , salah satunya kisah Raden Zayyan dan Hanindia Fara dalam 30 Juz . Buku ini menceritakan Kisah tentang pemuda yang terpaksa memasuki pesantren untuk menghafal 30 JUZ sebagai syarat untuk menikahi seorang gadis. Namanya Raden Zayyan, seorang ketua dari salah satu geng motor yang menangisi nasibnya sendiri karna harus memasuki pesantren dan meninggalkan dunianya. Namun siapa sangka, ternyata anggotanya mengikuti jejak Zay untuk melangkahkan kaki ke penjara suci. Dulu tempat berkumpul mereka adalah Markas, sekarang tempat mereka berkumpul adalah mesjid. Selama di pesantren bukan hal yang mudah untuknya, dimana dia harus bisa bersosialisasi dengan lingkungan yang berbeda dari sebelumnya. Namun karna ini demi seorang gadis yang dia cintai, Zay rela untuk itu semua. Note📝 Setelah baca novel ini banyak banget pelajaran yang bisa diambil mulai dari kisah perjuangan bang zayyan untuk mendapatkan Fara, kemudian alurnya juga gak berat berat banget jadi pembaca masih bisa meresapi alur ceritanya. Yang pling penting dari kisah ini dalam melakukan sesuatu apapun harus dengan niat menginginkan Ridhonya. Karena "Setiap amal perbuatan yang dilakukan oleh seorang Muslim itu tergantung pada niatnya. Dan ia akan memperoleh balasan sesuai dengan niatnya. Jika ia melakukan ibadah dengan niat karena Allah SWT, maka ia akan mendapatkan pahala dari Allah" Selamat membaca semuanya🤗 #bookstagram #booklover #bookaddict #bookish #booknerd #booklife #bookhaul #riview #rekomendasibuku #novelindonesia #islamicbooks #30juz

I have been wanting a book vase for a while, and I decided a Harry Potter one would be perfect with some paper roses made from Harry Potter book pages. I didn't see anything that matched what I was looking for, so I decided to make my own. I absolutely LOVE how it turned out! I have one more blank vase, so I'm debating making a Fourth Wing one next 😏 . . . #harrypotter #harrypotterfan #harrypotteredit #harrypotterbooks #craftersgonnacraft #readersgonnaread #booklife #bookishlife #bookishlifestyle #booklifestyle #booklover #bookworm #cricutmade #cricutcreations #cricutcrafts #bookishpost #bookishfeatures #alittlecraftyfox

•Book review• 🏰The Fine Print by Lauren Asher Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 Genre: Modern Romance Spice level: 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ My 💭: loved this book!!! I was hooked from the first chapter and I couldn’t put it down. This was my first Lauren Asher book, but will not be my last. I loved Rowan so much. He had me rooting for him. His arc was great. Serious “who hurt you vibes” but in the best way. Zahra was great as a FMC. I loved her fire and drive. She was just a great overall character too. Her family 🥹🥹 the sweetest. I also enjoyed the storytelling and plot. Big win for all the great banter too!! I cannot wait to start the next in the series! What to expect: -grumpy/sunshine -serious Disney vibes -insta lust . . . . . .

Book 43 of 2024: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah I’ve heard great reviews of this audiobook and it’s been on my TBR for years. It did not disappoint. Listening to Trevor Noah tell his story is definitely the way to go on this one if you have the option. As someone who believes everyone has a story to tell, I’m almost always a fan of memoirs if they’re well-written (or told) and shared in a meaningful way. Noah definitely has a story, having grown up in South Africa during apartheid. And he’s a stellar storyteller and communicator as a tv personality and comedian. His book is funny but it also contains important messages regarding race, culture, and language. I feel like his story is pretty unique; it’s definitely not like any other I’ve heard before. He has some pretty wild stories about his childhood, teenage, and young adult experiences! I think what I enjoyed the most were his undying love and respect for his mother, whose strength and character were unwavering. It’s funny when it needs to be, and raw and devastating when there is no other choice. What is the last memoir you read? Or whose memoir would you like to read? #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #booklife #booklove #alwaysreading #readingchallenge #readinggoal #bookrecs #goodreads #2024books #nonfiction #memoir #autobiography #audiobooks

✨Happy release day!!✨ 4 ⭐️! This was such a cute and cozy contemporary romance. It felt like getting a warm hug ☺️ Spunes made me feel like it was the west coast version of Stars Hollow and I want to visit this fictional place. I really enjoyed the characters. Sage and Fisher both had complicated pasts and despite that they were able to open up to each and be that person they would be able to lean on. I loved how Sage was unapologetically herself and Fisher was always trying to do right by his niece (Indy) even if he felt like he was screwing it up. Did I mention he’s a chef?! Because that’s hot! Oh and he has his ears pierced, double hot 🥵 I do feel like the last few chapters were a bit rushed but they made me tear up nonetheless. This was my first book by Tarah Dewitt and I’m happy to say I will continue to read her stories! Also shout to the narrators Zachary Webber and Kariss Vacker who made the characters come alive. **Thank you NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, and Macmillan audio for my first ALC in exchange for an honest review.

💙Suddenly You💙 . Link Here: https://books2read.com/u/m0JVWV . 💙Vegas Wedding 💙Blackmail Marriage 💙Opposites Attract 💙Bi-Awakening 💙Touch Starved 💙Whit, Sem, and Emery Content (Yes, that’s right, the boys are BACK) . We’ve all heard the saying, “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.” God help me, if only that were true. Because as it turns out, my surprise gay husband is very much still my husband outside of the great state of Nevada. And let me tell you, as a straight guy, waking up married to a man I barely know with no memory of how it happened wasn’t even on my Bingo card. . What started as a fun weekend getaway to support my brothers in their relationships and show them how much I’ve grown, has somehow spiraled wildly out of my control. Cooper Barone is rich, kind, and charming, but he’s holding all the cards now. Because he doesn’t want our marriage annulled. No, he says he wants us to make a deal. He wants me to spend time with him, to move in with him. . All I know is that I’m broke and I can’t afford a divorce without his compliance, without his help. So there’s nothing left for me to do but agree and accept my fate. I’m a straight dude with a husband.

THIS. This is the type of book you don't want to end, the novel that makes you feel warm and fuzzy, the sort that makes your heart melt. This is a story you can't put down, you read in less than 24 hours, and reads like how a comfort food tastes. The Do-Over tells the story of junior high school student Emelie trying to get out of a cycle of reliving the same day–Valentine’s Day, of all options–and change the horrible events that keep recurring, whether it’s her car crashing, her not getting an honor scholarship after all, or her family announcing they’re moving without her. And the book was just plain fun. I could relate to the main character (well, minus her bizarre choices on the DONC–if you’ve read the novel, you know what I mean 😉). I liked Lynn Painter’s take on the ever-repeating-day concept. And on a deeper level, it made me think about how I want to carry out my day. Like all books, it wasn’t perfect. Although not as much as in Better Than the Movies, there was cussing. Characters would joke about dangerous injuries or lightheartedly insult each other. The main message was that you should live for yourself. But what can I say? Although I disliked some parts, they were trivial to how the overall story worked out. My heart was singing at the end, and once I finished it, I wished there was more and bought my own copy. (I was reading one from the library.) This is the sort of happy, cozy book I’ve been hoping for. I adored it... or, paraphrasing part of the book and a song reference, I had a marvelous time READing everything. 😉 @lynnpainterbooks , THANK YOU!

Expiration Dates by Rebecca Serle I have very mixed feelings about this book. I didn’t love it, and I didn’t hate it. The premise of it seems light and fluffy, and it is just that…for the first 50 percent or so before it takes a dramatic turn to be more serious. I liked how quickly the story moved along, but it was almost to a detriment because this is only a 272 page book. I would have enjoyed another 60-80 pages or so to either get more back story of previous relationships Daphne had before the present time or to develop more of her relationships in the present. This was enjoyable enough, but it won’t be a memorable read for me. Synopsis: Being single is like playing the lottery. There’s always the chance that with one piece of paper you could win it all. Daphne Bell believes the universe has a plan for her. Every time she meets a new man, she receives a slip of paper with his name and a number on it—the exact amount of time they will be together. The papers told her she’d spend three days with Martin in Paris; five weeks with Noah in San Francisco; and three months with Hugo, her ex-boyfriend turned best friend. Daphne has been receiving the numbered papers for over twenty years, always wondering when there might be one without an expiration. Finally, the night of a blind date at her favorite Los Angeles restaurant, there’s only a name: Jake. But as Jake and Daphne’s story unfolds, Daphne finds herself doubting the paper’s prediction, and wrestling with what it means to be both committed and truthful. Because Daphne knows things Jake doesn’t, information that—if he found out—would break his heart. ⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 Format: Kindle Book #60 of 2024

📗BOOK REVIEW 📗 First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 "Evie Porter has everything a nice, Southern girl could want: a perfect, doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence and"Evie Porter has everything a nice, Southern girl could want: a perfect, doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence and a garden, a fancy group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist." I was hooked so fast with this book. The story felt unique; it was not a typical domestic thriller. As a reader you never knew who was who they said they were and it made for a great story of cat and mouse. The power dynamic kept shifting, making it hard to guess what was going to happen next. The story is told in single POV (Evie's) and in a dual timeline; a present timeline and a past timeline that jumps through the years of Evie's past "jobs". The switching between timelines was easy to follow and really gave important information about Evie and her life and added intrigue. The plot moved quickly and I really enjoyed this clever and entertaining thriller. a garden, a fancy group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist." I was hooked so fast with this book.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks @jordys.book.club for the great recommendation. This is not my typical go-to thriller. I lean towards the psychological, but this wild ride is full of action, suspense, and a little bit of romance sprinkled in. Alex is a big-time thief. He pulls off high-end robberies. Just when he’s ready to have a mellower life he gets pulled into one last job in Spain. Previously in the States, he meets Diane at a party where they both go to literally trip, hallucinate to escape, and self-realize. Alex and smart-ass Diane are strangers until they realize that they met in the past and that they share a complicated connection. They start a relationship that goes awry when both of their adult children are kidnapped and Alex must complete an impossible job to get them back. Smart, witty writing and non-stop high stakes made this a gripping, entertaining novel that I flew through. #thrillerbooks #bookstagram #loveandtheft #bookstagrammer #booklove #booklife #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookrecommendation #bookworm

This should be required reading. The graphic novel version is every bit as excellent as the original, and I cannot recommend it enough. It’s of particular importance this year, what with November and all, but honestly, it’s a crucial read at any time. I actually believe this strongly enough that I’m considering doing a GIVEAWAY. Would any of you be interested in something like that? Comment or like, and if it looks like more than 5 people are interested (😂), I’ll do it. Should it be to Substack subscribers? Followers? I’ve never done this so I’m taking suggestions! 🙏🤓 #reading #booklife #book #bookstagram #graphicnovel #nonfiction #politics #philosophy #history

Safe with me @klslaterauthor Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Safe with me is Slater’s debut novel and follows Anna, a quiet, private woman with a traumatic past. She lives a simple life, going to work and coming home. Only socialising with her elderly neighbour, until one day she witnesses a vehicle collision where she recognises one of the victims. Carla. Although is Carla a victim? Anna develops an obsession with Carla, hoping she gets to pay for what she did to her and her family decades earlier. Although it doesn’t end quite as Anna had hoped. Highly recommend reading. I’ve got several other of Slater’s novels on my bookshelf and can’t wait to read them!

A Lady’s Guide to Etiquette and Murder by Dianne Freeman 4 ⭐ Genres: Cozy Mystery, Historical Mystery 💬“…I would be a fool to marry again… I’d be better off buying a dog.” A cute, cozy, Victorian England mystery. I’m so glad I began reading the first in this series, as it provides lots of information and introduction to a slew of characters. I love the cover illustration for #aladysguidetoetiquetteandmurder ! So creative and eye-catching with the amusing drawing and beautiful lilac color. 💜 If you are looking for a great read that introduces you to some entertaining characters as you rollick along with some amateur sleuthing, this is the book for you. There were so many lines I enjoyed. It was difficult to choose just one for my opening quote. I found the tone of this story lighthearted and entertaining. Frances, the widowed Countess of Harleigh at twenty-seven, is a bit naïve. She is beginning to take control of her own life after her mother, husband and husband’s family have been making the decisions. Moving with her daughter, Rose, to Belgravia in London, she is also sponsoring her sister, Lily Price, from New York for the London season. Spunky and outspoken Aunt Hetty has also come along. Frances’ prudence to protect Lily and her dowry get her embroiled in solving murder and thievery. Though she has much to learn about detecting, Frances is proud of her “knack for ferreting out information.” There are also sweet romantic overtures 💗 between Frances and her neighbor, George Hazelton, her best friend Fiona’s brother, as they partner up to solve the mysteries. I would recommend this book and plan to read the rest of the series! Thank you for reading!

Title: Long Time Gone by @charliedonlea 🎧 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I have been dying to read a book by Charlie Donlea, so I was very excited to be approved to read and listen to this one. I have heard great things about this author, and this book did not disappoint! Starting with the premise - The premise of this book was so good! A pathologist who has to do a 2 year fellowship under a pathologist she looks up to. Sloan is asked to submit her DNA to a genealogy site as part of her fellowship. She gets the go ahead from her adoptive parents, and soon finds out that not only did her and her bio parents go missing 30 years earlier, but that her adoption was not above board. Sloan and her parents disappearance was national news c30 years ago, and no one has seen or heard from anyone in the famil until Sloan’s DNA results come back letting her know she was baby Charlotte who disappeared 30 years ago. Sloan then sets out to find out what really happened to her and her parents 30 years ago. To do this, she has to reunite with her birth family, the Margolis family. They are wealthy and very powerful in the small town where they live. From this point on, things get WILD!! The plot was riveting, the character development was fascinating, and the twists and turns were jaw-dropping! I really enjoyed this book, and flew through it at a rapid pace. I had to know what was going to happen. The story was engrossing from the beginning all the way to the very end. Donlea’s writing style pulled me right into the story, and I was completely immersed in what was happening. I am definitely a new fan! Thank you @netgalley @this_is_edelweiss and @recordedbooks for the ARC and ALC in exchange for my honest review. #readersofinstagram #bookshelf #bookworld #instaread #bookoftheday #booklife #booklover #booklovers #bookstagram #bookish #blackgirlsread #bookishgirl #booksofinstagram #readergirl #readerlife #readersofinstagram #bookloversofinstagram #read #reading #blackgirlsread #blackgirlsreadtoo #blackwomenreadtoo #bookrecommendations #bookstoread #kensingtonpublishing #arcreader #arcreaders #advancedreadercopy #advancedreaderscopy

🌻🌷🌼 B o o k R e v i e w 🌼🌷🌻 The Girls in the Garden ~ Lisa Jewell Genre: Mystery Page Count: 310 Pub Date: April 4, 2017 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️3/5 🌷 Summary:🌷 Imagine that you live on a picturesque communal garden square, an oasis in urban London where your children run free, in and out of other people’s houses. You’ve known your neighbors for years and you trust them. Implicitly. You think your children are safe. But are they really? On a midsummer night, as a festive neighborhood party is taking place, preteen Pip discovers her thirteen-year-old sister Grace lying unconscious and bloody in a hidden corner of a lush rose garden. What really happened to her? And who is responsible? 🌷 My Thoughts:🌷 As always, I love Lisa Jewell's writing style. She has a talent for reeling you in from the start and making the story flow smoothly. However, this one felt anticlimactic, slow paced and lacked the thriller element. There was nothing to keep me on the edge of my seat. It seemed more of a slow burn mystery that touched on mental health, substance abuse and family drama. It lacked the wow factor and spookiness. Plus the ending left me confused, almost as if I missed something. 🌷 Read if you Enjoy: 🌷 • who done it mysteries • slow burn stories • family dynamics • full cast of characters • communal neighborhoods #minibookreview #minireview #thegirlsinthegarden #bookoftheday #bookslayallday #lisajewell #mysterybooks #whodunit #plantsarelife # a e s t h e t i c #bookcommunity #bookishfeed #bibliophile #bookishcontent #bookishbesties #readwithrachael #bookstagrammer #booksandplants #psychologicalthriller #bookwormproblems #beautifulbooks #booklife #booksmakemehappy #booklifestyle #fiction #thrillerbooksaddict #horrorfeels #horrorbookaddict

Couldn’t let the day go by without thanking Stephen King for releasing a new book during my vacation! 😆 Seriously though, so psyched to start this bad boy. It’s terribly warm here today in western PA so I had to tuck all my hair in a hat and try not to sweat to death. But it’s cooling off now, perfect time to kick back with an adult beverage and read a story or two! Also, thanks to @the_wandering_reader for pointing out that book, fully open, has a gator on the cover. Totally missed that one! 🐊😂 Rejoice, constant readers, it’s finally here! 🧡 . #books #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #reading #booklife #readersofinstagram #bookcommunity #booklove #horror #bookish #horrorbooks #horrorbooksofinstagram #stephenking #constantreader #youlikeitdarker

Sorry for being quiet. I reviewed all the books I've read this year and am only about halfway through my current book. I'm not even sure what to say about this book. I guess I have a couple hundred pages to figure that out. #booklover #booknerd #booklife #readingisfun #readingislife #readingisknowledge #ilovereading

So I'm back to two posts with what I guess we can say is the formal announcement of my next two projects. Yes I said two. I thought I just mention it again to make sure you knew. This has been one big undertaking and I really hope that they come out well. I have a lot of ideas and so i'll be trying to write a few books at once to keep up with my mind and so I'm just trying it with the next Ember Knight book and other project. I'll post more details when I get to the editing phase but until then I'll see you next week. #book #booklover #bookstagram #booklovers #booknerd #bookaddict #writer #writing #writingcommunity #author #authorsofinstagram #authorlife #authorgram #indieauthor #writingsociety #writingcommunityofinstagram #bookcommunity #booklife #newbook #newbooks #teaser #nzauthor

Book: Learn Your Lesson by Kandi Steiner Rating: 4.5 / 5 ⭐ Thoughts: This book was everything I wanted it to be and more! I loved both the main characters and especially loved seeing Chloe, the FMC, build new relationships, not only with Will, the MMC, but also with the others, like Chef and the girls. There was a perfect balance in this book between a little bit of angst and still not too much of a slow burn. This was just the perfect book to have a little bit of an escape from the chaos that is my life right now.
