Tender is the Flesh - Agustina Bazterrica
4/5⭐️

This is a dystopian society in which cannibalism is not only openly practiced and accepted, but also a social expectation.

The Possession of Alba Díaz by Isabel Cañas
5/5⭐️

Beyond the dark, evocative mood expected, this is a horror novel with chilling depictions of demonic possession. Reading at night not recommended.

Lightning in Her Hands by Raquel Vazquez Gilliland
4/5 ⭐️

Imagine being the witch of lightning, but never being in control of your powers? If your volatile emotions were reflected by the weather, you would be mad too. Reminiscent of practical magic!

Witch of Wild Things by Raquel Vazquez Gilliland
4.5/5⭐️

There’s a quality in the writing that forces my shoulders to drop and my mind to relax. Such a sweet and soft love story, it felt like a deep breath in a grassy field!

The Bewitching by @silviamg.bsky.social
5/5 ⭐️

There were some seriously scary moments for me. Read it at night at your own risk. This is a new take on witches that I found very exciting and scary.

This one time I somehow read 16 books in one month and now I think that’s somehow attainable. Have never gotten close to that again, but I will keep trying to recreate that feat! Let’s see how it goes.

Deinfluence me plz just in case

Good morning ☀️ just wanted to share how September went for me. I discovered some new authors and went down the rabbit hole with some YA horror (something I never read!) It’s been so fun, lmk if you’ve read any of these!

Pitcher Perfect by Tessa Bailey
3.5/5⭐️

It’s a quick read and a good time! Robbie is a hockey player and Skylar is a D1 softball pitcher. There’s fake dating, spicy lessons, and some really cute romcom moments.

It’s Different This Time by @jossrichard.bsky.social
5/5⭐️

📆 09/30

This book felt like a movie, like a hug. For a new release, it has an unexpected nostalgic quality that kept me fully engaged. It’s a true love story, impossible not to root for June and Adam!

A YA horror novel about the Troubled Teen Industry. Hazel is haunted by the ghost of a girl who faced the horrors of the reform school. Absolutely loved it!

Feeling slightly overwhelmed with my TBR for August (this is a lot for me). If you’ve read any of these lmk if I should skip or if it’s a must!!

To be fair The Odyssey, Dante’s Inferno are all rereads and I’m only reading them again to get hyped for Katabasis next month!

Rumoured by Kelly and Kristina Mancaruso
3/5⭐️

It is an entertaining story and a great concept that felt fresh. If you like pop culture, celebrity gossip, and twisty murder mysteries then this book is for you.

I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman
3.5/5⭐️
 
A weird, but interesting take on a post-apocalyptic world. a dystopian science fiction novel with intentionally light world-building throughout. It was a quick read but in some ways, unsatisfying.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
4.5/5 ⭐️

The theme of kindness trascending humanity and the question of what defines empathy is challenged throughout. I was genuinely surprised by the course of the plot and the resolution of the story.

The Dragon Republic by R.F. Kuang
5/5⭐️

This book is dominating my entire brain. I read the majority of it in a day. Rin is a different flavor of frustrating in this one, but this is Nezha’s story and I’m a fan!
