Thoroughly enjoying the Betwixt and Between series. I am literally cackling at Defiance’s inner monologue and I want to be friends with these people. Great narration too. #booksky #fantasy #paranormal

Betwixt was a fun read! It was refreshing to have a divorced, middle-aged, hot mess FMC for a change! And I love the quirky and unapologetic best friend. I will be reading the next in the series. Downside: 0.5 on the spice scale. #booksky #fantasy

Sigh… I am sad that I’m done reading this because it was so good. I’ll admit I was at first disappointed to learn this book would not continue Ophelia’s story, but I adore Genevieve and I needed a story for a feral, neglected youngest daughter. And Rowin 🖤 #booksky #romantasy #paranormalromance

Got my tickets 😊 #outlander

I believe in Bryceriel now more than ever WORLDS!! GOLDEN THREADS TRUTH TELLER TWIN PEAK MOUNTAINS DUSK COURT #booksky #acotar #bryceriel #crescentcity #callherdaddy

This book was recommended to me and although it didn’t resonate all that much with me, the added chapter on trauma and anxiety in this new edition was good. I feel like I can now recognize this codependency model in others and can hopefully empathize better with them. #booksky #selfhelp

Did some rappelling and ascending practice in Hocking Hills #hockinghills #caving #rappelling #onrope

Ok I really loved this one though. It gives a hint of Twilight a-la guy obsessed with the girl and can’t stay away; also “not like other girls” trope. Except Jack Frost is fun and sweet and Emery is no nonsense conservationist. There’s some other similarities to twilight 🧊👀😉 #booksky #romantasy

For transparency and posterity, I read these two pay-by-the-chapter books after succumbing to an ad. It was weird having to jump through hoops to get the next chapter, but after the first few chapters of melodrama, this actually turned out to be a decent story. Think I’m done though. #booksky

Let it be known before the Call Her Daddy episode with SJM, I am, have been, and will remain team Brycerial #acotar #callherdaddy #romantasy #booksky #crescentcity

This is a great read for the current state of affairs with U.S. and China hegemonic competition and I enjoyed how Wang wove history and his personal experiences and travels into the mix. #booksky #breakneck

The concept of this entire season hinging on Maura Higgins. #thetraitorsUS

Traversing in a crevice on my recent caving trip in West Virginia #westvirginia #caving #WV

Omg omg omg #booksky

Loved this gothic dark romantasy! The deadly trials were actually fear-inducing and the hierarchy of paranormal beings is interesting. Also, the spice is so good!!! I think I need to read to read Enchantra because the ending was a little confusing. #booksky #phantasma

This was cute #Booksky #viciouslostboys

Wow. World building: phenomenal. Spice: spicing. Plot: sublime. Finally finished Brimstone after successfully avoiding spoilers. How on earth can I wait for the third installment? #booksky #brimstone

This was a wild ride since I consumed this mostly in the hours between 11pm-2am during the holiday. I’m not sure if the sleep deprivation made the world incomprehensible or if it was not described well, but I did very much enjoy the male version sugar plum fairy #booksky #nutcracker

I listened to an audiobook at 1.2 speed for the first time

Is Rep TV happening or what? #taylorswift

Me: **COSTCOs harder** #costco

Starting the Quicksilver reread before I do Brimstone. Have I just read this 7 months ago? Yes, and? I will not waste an opportunity to revisit meeting the 7 gods. #booksky #quicksilver 😜

I bring a “Tally ho!” energy to the mushroom hunt that gets old

Been scouring for the next audiobook in the Eating Woods series whilst reading Anathema bc I know I need more. Unfortunately it won’t be ready til March and now I’m actually considering buying a hard copy of Eldritch. All of this being said, I thought it was slow AF world building #booksky #gothic

I’ve read the whole series but I was cracking up thinking what if someone just reads this 18 minute alt POV without any context? Adding alt POV snippets after the fact is kinda crazy bc by the time it’s published, ppl barely remember what is happening at that point. #booksky #viciouslostboys

Stories of puritan witch hunts and the injustice and insanity that go along with it always wreck me, so I started Slewfoot with trepidation. Spoiler alert: It did wreck me. But the revenge and liberation bring balance at the end which sadly is fantasy in more ways than one. #booksky #darkfantasy

Some mum pictures before the snow came #bloomscrolling #flowers

This is a Hallmark movie masquerading as a dark romance book 😑

Cascade Cave: Carter Caves Kentucky #caving #kentucky

My next spooky read 😁 because why not? #booksky

Nocticadia. I needed this. And by this, I’m referring to the “touch her and 💀”, forbidden romance, and burn the world for her. And wow, don’t miss the last minute of the epilogue. I expect a sequel is on the way. #booksky

I wish this was a movie so bad. But I don’t know if anyone could do it justice. #booksky #thenightcircus

So it’s been a bit since I finished The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, but this bit won’t leave my head #booksky

Had to read the OG Sleepy Hollow for old time’s sake. I remember Brom Bones being a bully and a brute, but he didn’t seem all that bad to me this time reading 👀 #booksky

Going back for a classic American Halloween read: The Halloween Tree. Do people write this well anymore? When I read modern books I think “I could have written this,” but books like this remind me how much skill is involved with great literature. #booksky

I am obsessed with Sleepy Hollow and expectations were very high for this reimagining. That being said, I enjoyed this one. I think the ending could have been stronger and I would have preferred hard copy book instead of audio, but overall it’s good and the horseman is kinda lovable 😍 #booksky
