🎧 Twisted Hate – enemies, tension, and the kind of chaos you choose
Sometimes my mind won’t quiet down, but I also can’t handle anything too deep. That’s when I play something like Twisted Hate. The banter? Sharp. The tension? Off the charts. And so...
E-book - BookBeat 💕
There’s something sacred about holding a real book — the weight, the pages, the soft rustle when you flip through. It’s one of the few things that fully pulls me out of my head and into someone else’s world.
