Spectacular Review
Listen, I love Christmas, and I love Christmas themed books. But I'm so over every fantasy holiday being Christmas adjacent. I'd love some different holidays thrown into the mix. It's just getting pretty repetitive.

A Queen of Thieves and Chaos Review
I can see a lot of people giving up on this series because not enough is happening over all these books. Plus, I'm never a fan of suddenly new PoVs from brand new characters suddenly in book 3. It's a gamble and this one failed.

I'm really thinking about cosplay Gala from #afkjourney
Originally I was gonna do Parisa, but Gala is my everything 😭
And my mom now wants me to cosplay her, and I gotta listen to my mom! I'm gonna make this a super long build though and really push myself to learn new skills. Like debuting in 2027.

Star of Beethoven Review
While this manga could've had a good message about finding your passion, there was so much that just fell flat. I understand it was canceled, but they were setting things up and not exploring it. Plus, my dislike for the art style kept getting to me.

First Lie Wins Review
I hate being disappointed by a book. I always want to love every book I read, knowing I won't. But I want to!
This book did not feel like a thriller to me. It had such an interesting plot too. But it fell flat.

When the Tides Held the Moon Review
I always go into books thinking I'll love them and end up disappointed. It's rare when I go into a book thinking it'll be mid but end up loving it. I hope I can get some friends to read it because it was just so romantic~

I'm honestly dealing with an overwhelming amount of anger lately
Which I'm not used to
Anger isn't an emotion I usually have. I'm rarely angry because I hate being angry.
But I'm so angry at a lot of things right now & I'm overwhelmed
I hate feeling this way
I'd rather be overwhelmed with depression

Death and Other Occupational Hazards Review
If you know me, you know I love a fun title! I think long titles are so funny & really make me want to read the book. So when I saw this book on netgalley, I was hoping I could read it! And I got a chance to! I definitely enjoyed it.

fyi cosplayers-- if you're in need of any basic underlayers for cosplay (modesty garments, tights, colored leggings, sports bras of varying silhouettes, etc) or dance shoes, discount dance is going out of business (😭) and most of the store is $5. stock up.

The Bandit Queens Review
Amazing subject, the execution left me overwhelmed. There was too much going on. I have issues w/ too many PoVs because there's always 1 character I don't care about. There were too many plots, and I just couldn't find myself interested in all of them.

Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop Review
There's an audience for it, but it's not me. I really thought it would've been, since I usually love books like this. I didn't vibe with the characters, so I didn't connect with the book. If you're looking for a cozy read? This is it.

Not looking for advice, just venting
If you didn't know, one of the many reasons I moved to bookish posts is because I'm struggling with body dysmorphia and not able to look at my face.
I really thought I was doing better, but recently I've dived right back down to unable to look at myself again.
