“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” - The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald

I hope you love it!!!

Romantasy Readers: This book is the one you are going to start to see EVERYWHERE next week (if you haven’t already).

It’s nonstop action.
It’s completely immersive.
It’s an elite Romantasy reading experience.

And it’s out Tuesday. 😉

Thank you to Red Tower/ Entangled for the incredible ARC!

The TikTok algorithm is really different the last week or so, right?

I mean, it’s been off since the ban…but the last several days if I like or watch anything for more than 30 seconds, that topic is 99% of my FYP.

Amazon, to Kindle users: “You can checkout any time you want, but you can never leave.” 🎶

I’ll say it again. The things I would not know without TikTok 🤯

Today’s installment: American Woman in Pakistan and the Significance of the Super Bowl Halftime Show.

Here for it.

It’s so wild! Honestly, I didn’t feel like I *had* to read it right now, but I was worried about spoilers. Honestly, I’d probably forget just like I have for most of the first two…

Oh no! Our line was so long too - but they have been acquiring extra copies at mine so I hope your line moves quicker than anticipated!

I don’t exercise a ton of self-control when it comes to book purchases…but I am marked safe from spending $14 on an EBOOK this week.

Would love to read this one on my Kindle but also think I’d be so mad every time I saw it. Limping along with my late hardcover thankyouverymuch…

Me, to my husband whenever we are visiting someone new:

“Do they have a dog?”

I love it! I have a couple ARCs to finish and then am just going to let myself read as much fanfic as I want. I haven’t enjoyed myself this much in so long - Dramoine forever!

I have actually only read Manacled and Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love. I just discovered fanfic - but it’s been a comfort to download so many and have them on my Kindle for a rainy day!

What are your favorites, Lauren? I’ll
make sure I have them on my list

If the Tik Tok ban had a silver lining - it’s the 30+ Dramoine fanfics I stress downloaded when I thought it was the end.

I just started with Farseer and am obsessed!

That makes so much sense - I wish they all would have done that. Did you manage to snag one?

Ran out of characters to say: I 100% get why people are upset. I think everyone should have a chance to get these books (which didn’t happen) but if everyone could get one, they’d lose their appeal to most collectors.

I’ve seen video after video complaining Target didn’t have enough stock.

I do think booksellers need to limit the # of special editions to keep them special.

So, instead of “print more,” I’d like to see retailers limit the # a person can buy and take action to against bots/resellers. #onyxstorm

I have a long way to go on Onyx Storm, but I totally agree on the Earl Crush ARC. And honestly, I think I liked Ne’er Duke Well even more 😍

This is such an amazing new release Tuesday 😍 Each book, in its own ways, offers some of what we needed this week, or at least what I do: the comfort of a love story, the inspiration to question & resist, distraction & rest, and, most importantly, a community ready to have a conversation. #booksky

Oooh this is perfect for a flight read! Enjoy!!

I didn’t get one but my mom found one for me at her target 🥹

So prepping to order the Target Exclusive edition of Onyx Storm is feeling a lot like logging into Ticketmaster for Eras Tour tickets.

Good luck tomorrow, Romantasy readers!

I loved One Dark Window!

Will do! And I agree, the long goodbye and never really knowing when/if was awful and exhausting

Yep! I deleted all of my videos as there was no clarity on what happened to our accounts. Not sure I’ll start over

It looks so fun over there!

Same. Though I have to say I almost never had hurtful comments on TikTok - one day on BlueSky and I’m not sure I can do this.

I mean, so many supportive accounts but also the negativity 🥺

Hi Mary! There are so many - but I love popular fantasy and historical romance. I’m currently reading The Realm of the Elderlings. Got my start reading Jane Austen. How about you?

Hey Sarah!
