I know...I haven't read a BUNCH...but I'm unfortunately super freaking busy 😵‍💫.

I'm currently reading a book alongside a book club that meets at the restaurant I work at called "A Good Indian Girl" that I'll give my review on once I'm finished.

Last: A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas. Sequel to ACOTAR. This was a bit of a whirlwind read. Dealing with the trauma Feyre was still recovering from in the 1st book to learning about her mate to everything else in between and after. I am sat for this series. 4.5/5

Next: A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas. A unique retelling of Beauty and the Beast set with fae and fun characters. I went in knowing that Feyre doesn't stay with the love interest in this story, but it was a fun read overall. LOVED Lucien! 4/5

First up: Quicksilver by Callie Hart. It's everyone's new current obsession with its sequel Brimstone. Coming out in the Fall of this year (2025). I enjoyed it, but the banter got boring and the sudden - oh Fae are also vampires and throwing in fated mates thing kinda turned me off. Overall a 3.5/5

Jeez...keeping up with my socials is a chore 😅. Let me give you my most recent reads reviews...

Well, instead of celebrating #indiebookstoreday I'm stuck at work with no running water 🙃 I'll try ordering something from one of the stores today online if possible, but I doubt I'll be able to go anywhere and get anything tonight 😩

Thanks for shitting on my community, Rowling. Give me another reason to despise you after having your books be one of the reasons I got into reading in the first place.

I'm proudly ace, I will continue to advocate for ace representation in media 🖤🩶🤍💜

Wanted to share my Fourth Wing fanfic that I'm currently writing and posting chapter by chapter on AO3!

Will be posting chapter snippets at a later date

They now have physical sizing!They downsized from M just fine but the upsize got weird,unsure why but thats what the prototype stage is for.Now that I can see how much material and labor they need I can accurately estimate a price point for all sizes! #dragon #plush #fourthwing #ironflame #onyxstorm

In case you're interested in my little fanfic: archiveofourown.org/works/638264...

News 5: I've also started a fun little self-insert fanfiction of Fourth Wing where I've essentially isekai'd myself (named differently) into the world of Navarre with guidance by the Greek Gods. It's a fun little crossover of different things and I'm having fun with it. Link to the AO3 below!

News 4: I've since read Quicksilver. I'll give you all my review of it soon, again, catching up on my socials. My mental health right now is my top priority and it's dealing with a lot right now.

News 3: I've read all 3 books of the Empyrean series, and I'm without a doubt obsessed. I'm kicking myself for not picking this series up when it came out, and I'm bummed that I have to wait for at minimum a year and a half for the next installment. It's like waiting for Harry Potter all over again

News 2: I have put down my WIP, "The Hidden Devil," as it's in need of MAJOR restructuring and frankly I'm not in the right headspace for it. I've instead picked up my other WIP, "Lost Humanity." I'm in the process of drafting it now, and it's coming along swimmingly!

News 1: I have fully moved back in with my mom and have started a new job. Im stressed a little with catching up on my bills, but its going about as good as it can.

Holy begeezus guys, I have NOT been keeping up with my socials, like, at all. Between my move and gathering myself back up and all, I've been a very busy bee. Here's some news for you all that I'll simply make this into a thread:

I hope so too!!

I liked him as a side character in Hunting Sirens, but im still super giddy over Hook.

I have the book but i haven't read it yet

Read more books by Brown authors.

Read more books by Black authors.

Read more books by Hispanic authors.

Read more books by Middle Eastern authors.

Read more books by Indigenous authors.

Diversify your reading list. Read books written by marginalised voices.

Unsure if anyone is reading the fourth wing series (no onyx storm spoilers please) but I want to make some big dragons. The little gold one would be 12-15 inches and the bigger two would be scales up accordingly. #fourthwing #ironflame #onyxstorm #tairn #sgaeyl #andarna

Finished Fourth Wing last night and holy hell have I been sleeping on this series! Just started Iron Flame this morning and it's been crazy!

No writing updates this morning, just playing in the snow 😅😅😅

They got some interest, I have the listing up on Etsy. #okami #canine #warriors

I'm behind on my reading yall! I'm trying to be ready for Onyx Storm when I haven't even read the first two yet! Reading fourth wing now, will hopefully be starting Onyx Storm by next week 😅😅😅
