    As someone who gets intimidated by people reading a bajillion books a moment, I like the Q1 Wrapup Format
  • @ShireenLilith
    Im still on my very first book of the year. As much as I love reading, Im dyslexic so I take forever BUT whats most important is that you LOVE reading and that I definitely do!
  • Against the Loveless World and Evil Eye were two of my recent Palestinian reads, and I adored them so so so much
  • @TheUnwantonLife
    you read such diverse and interesting books and you always have great summaries of them
  • @asiangsus
    QUEEN POSTED!! im still reading my first book of the year lol I want to be you when I grow up (I'm 23).

    I loved Bookshops & Bonedust! It didn’t feel quite as cozy as Legends & Lattes because the setting is different, but it was so heartwarming! It’s set in a seaside town and it’s just about them doing the most mundane but sweet things like fixing up a bookstore and eating tasty food. It made me feel so relaxed and so happy unlike most books I read.
  • I loved None of This Is True! And I recently finished Map of the Otherlands and actually enjoyed it even more than the first book, haha! My favorites from the past couple of months have been Tress of the Emerald Sea, The Hate U Give, The Girl With the Louding Voice, We Were Dreamers, Chain-Gang All-Stars, and Anne of Green Gables 😊

    Books I read in January/February: The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien (started in December, finished in January) Allegiant by Veronica Roth (a reread) Fellowship of the Ring by JRR Tolkien (didn't finish until March, that book is huge) Just goes to show that just because you don't read 30 books a month doesn't mean you aren't a reader :)
  • @nostalgicbear
    you should definitely read bookshops and bonedust!!!!! it is such an amazing book. i really love legends and lattes but i read the second book soon after it came out and i love it even more :)) it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re interested
  • I just read As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow and loved it! I will be reading None of This is True this weekend and Evil Eye next week.
  • @mildrumpus
    “Kindred” is a masterpiece. Octavia E. Butler was such an incredible writer. Happy Reading! 😎📚👍
  • @rosebud7233
    I think you should definitely pick up bookshops and bonedust! I loved legends and lattes when I read it in November, and I read bookshops and bonedust last month, and loved it just as much! I felt like it had the same cozy vibes, except in a bookshop, instead of a coffee shop. Also, since it’s a prequel, as soon as I finished it, I wanted to pick up legends and not his again. My favorite Reid so far this year has been the violent conspiracy.
  • @esliet
    What a good selection of books
  • @jmf322
    Wow your curls are gorgeous!
  • @winonareads6790
    agreed!! against the loveless world is one of my top 10 of all time
  • @Michelelynnreads
    I echo your reviews of Kindred (masterpiece!) and The Writer's Retreat (meh). The only Lisa Jewell I've read is Then She was Gone, which I just recently read. It was intense and creepy in a way. I want to read more from her, for sure.
