So obsessed with books I signed up for an English Literature degree.
I also have a love for games, TV, films and music.

My weekend is fully booked up!

Thank you, HarperFiction, for an ARC of Karin Slaughter's new book. This is the first in a new series by her. I've always loved Karin's work, so I'm beyond excited for this to take over my whole weekend ๐Ÿ˜

Iโ€™m saying this in my capacity as an author and once and future library worker:

Read whatever the hell you want.

I cannot impress enough on you that the โ€œimportantโ€ books arenโ€™t important if you donโ€™t jive with them. The popular books, the canon, the whatever. Read what you want.

I read Parable of the Sower and Kindred. Her writing is like no other. I need to read Parablr of the Talents, but I'm scared ๐Ÿ˜…

Yes, 100%, they read so differently to that first instalment.

I loved Jade City but didn't enjoy the other two, I am wanting to back to the triliogy in the future, though, as I think (and hope) that could change ๐Ÿ˜…

100% , I'm not sure the longest book I got into but 11/22/63 comes to mind. That's a big book and I loved it so much!

I tried it, but I couldn't get into the writing, unfortunately! I love dark academia, too, so it was a shame ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Now I'm scared again! ๐Ÿคฃ Maybe it's not the best big book to start doing this with ๐Ÿ˜…

Okay, this is a genius idea, and I might take it upon myself to do the same. I've been wanting to read The Count of Monte Cristo for so long now ๐Ÿ˜…

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

Cancelled about 90% of my movie / TV and book subscriptions today. They all came to around ยฃ200 a month. I know I don't watch / read enough to warrant that amount of payment every month, but I got sucked into all these monthly plans. A big reason as to why I'm going back to physical formats only.

I finally watched Poor Things last night, and what a wonderfully weird journey it was.

It was beautiful both in cinematics and in story. Emma Stone's acting was incredible, alongside Willem Dafoe and Mark Ruffalo.
