When I see an AI image in a blog post, I wonder if I should leave a comment asking if it’s AI. Too forward of me? Petty? Idk. But come on book bloggers, cut it out.

I’ll probably start unsubscribing from those blogs.

BOOK REVIEW | THE AUTUMN SPRINGS RETIREMENT HOME MASSACRE | PHILIP FRACASSI

New Review: Good Morning and wishing you a HAPPY ALL HALLOWS / SAMHAIN. There are some authors I have been meaning to read for ages, and Philip Fracassi is one of them. I recently read his latest book and really enjoyed it!

October Wrap-Up! I read a total of 24 books this month. I read a total of 11,033 pages. YOWZA!! I can't believe we are about to hit November!!! I hope everyone is having a Happy Halloween (if you celebrate!) I had a decent reading month, but not as many great reads as last month. I am so close on all my challenges!! Now, if I can catch up on my ARC's.

Here is my October Wrap-Up!! I read 24 books this month, but my rating was much lower.

Yea I would think they’d also be expensive in the UK, so it’s surprising to see a half of one in your drink. But hey, cheers to the nice surprise of half a passionfruit!

I’ve never had this much of an issue before with a Fairyloot presale, not even with SJM’s CC series.

The Fairyloot virtual queue sucks so much. (Idk that I have a solution, but just need to momentarily vent.)
