Just got a work email with two sentences and they both had exclamation marks! You better believe I double exclaimed right back!

Yes! It was definitely implied 🤣

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Sep 4

It may not have a cover reveal yet but it’s still on my TBR for next year. Preordered immediately!

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Sep 4

Good luck! And amazing to get four callbacks!

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Sep 4

Exit of Ramp meme
The caption says “Choosing your next read in September.” The traffic sign on the highway shows TBR straight ahead and the exit is for Seaborn. There is a car screeching and quickly taking the exit for Seaborn.

Banger of a WoT Idol song!

Aah yes, similar books always suffer when they are too close together. This happened to me with Red Rising and Will of the Many

Did you read the book? I got about halfway and my library loan was up. I’m waiting for my hold again. I was going to finish before watching the movie. But now…

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Aug 31

It’s really good as long as you are into plot and worldbuilding. Loads of people really like this one.

Which book did you DNF, out of curiosity

I feel this so much 💜 It’s a blessing because I can read way more horror and gross stuff but I want to see the mind movie I’ve only ever heard about

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Aug 31

I did this today as well! Rainbow sprayed edges got me

SherbetMango @sherbetmango.bsky.social · Aug 31

Sounds like a bargain!
