M.L Wang hasn’t failed me yet. And this book is proof

Top Notch Book Vibes
Revelation after revelation dropped everywhere. I was ready to throw hands by the end of this book 😂
Shield of Sparrows a book by Devney Perry - Bookshop.org US
I love when a book surprises me. I probably should’ve seen it but it’s all about the vibes
Metal Slinger a book by Rachel Schneider - Bookshop.org US
This is my most recent read. Dystopian and the slowest of burns. Was it predictable? Maybe. But I still enjoyed it and had a banging good time, especially during the last few scenes. I’m still not over about that *one* scene and I will never be over ...
Daggermouth a book by H M Wolfe - Bookshop.org US

These-Are-Masterpieces-So-I-AM-Intimidated-And-Terrified
This series has been sitting on my shelf, silently judging me for the longest time. But I am absolutely scared of starting it.

The Shadow of the Gods (Standard Hardcover Edition) - Bookshop.org
Brandon Sanderson writes so fast, I can't keep up and I still haven't even started Mistborn yet.
Mistborn: Books - Amazon.com
I bought the whole series in one go, thinking I'd demolish the whole thing. Instead, I panicked and got scared.
Assassin's Apprentice (Farseer Trilogy)
Books That Haunt You (Not That Way)
This is not a romance. It’s dark and morbid and really, really depressing. But it’ll change your brain chemistry for sure. Make sure to check trigger warnings.
Alchemised by SenLinYu - 9780593972700
The emotional whiplash from this series is ridiculous. But there's something in the pages because I couldn't stop reading. I was a broken mess by the end of this book.
Tempest of Wrath and Vengeance eBook by Melissa K. Roehrich
D3ath by TBR
This might take a while. I have an embarrassing amount of books waiting for me to pay attention to them. I really need to get it together and start reading these. But buying a book and actually reading them are two different hobbies.
This is a dark, romantasy about a hidden Siren in a kingdom that hunts her kind. There's forced proximity & bonds, forbidden powers, forbidden love, and a slow-burn romance with high-stakes "yearning".
In the Veins of the Drowning a book by Kalie Cassidy - Bookshop.org
A cursed forest, where sinners go die? A woman running to that forest because of tragic events, where she meets the cursed lord of Eidolon? An actual assassin. This is going to be one of those super slow burns, isn't it? The blurb actually makes me w...

Girl goes to a haunted island medical school, falls for the professor who runs the midnight corpse lab, slow burn so slow you age while reading it? COUNT. ME. IN.

Always and forever will be a Kobo girlie <3
I got my Kobo Libra last year and never looked back. Their catalog is not extensive as Kindle Unlimited (as of right now) but so far, all the books I wanted are available on Kobo Plus and it's so easy to connect to Libby or Overdrive. I also love how...

Maybe I just found another way to track all my books. Because Storygraph, a Notion dashboard, and a spreadsheet is obviously not enough lol
