I read my first manga last night. I was just trying to finish up my bookish bingo squares, but it was a banger! The first Spy x Family. I was at work just chuckling away 😂 Now I need to pick up the series #Booksky #Diversebooksky

#sonofthemorning was phenomenal! It really showed that the #romantasy genre really has a lot of room to grow if more diverse voices get a hold of it. This felt so original and fun. No notes💕 #Booksky #Blackbooksky

I was just driving and listening to the end of A Mastery of Monsters and this book is so 🔥. I ended up making two wrong turns because I was so invested. It’s the best YA book I’ve read in a while. The characters are complex and the plot has so many layers. #Booksky #ablackbooksky

I opened my Our Vicious Oaths Trove box in front of the family unaware that it came with artwork. So hiding that was fun 😂 #Booksky #Blackbooksky

Happy Novella November! I’ve got a long lineup of novellas to get through. I think I’ll work about 20 in between a few longer books I want to prioritize this month. #Booksky #Blackbooksky #TBR

I’m 62% through The Everlasting by Alix Harrow and this book is phenomenal. It’s really paying off all the promise in the novella. I’ve been binging it today but I must go to sleep. I can’t wait to knock it out tomorrow. #Booksky

Finished The Last Man on Earth and I the writing was great. It was fast paced and kept my interest. But I never ended up vibing with the MMC (he took care of that lady though) and the FMC wasn’t that great either (she spent most of her time taking naps and crying). Still 3.5⭐️ #BlackBooksky #Booksky

I just started The Last Man on Earth and I’m intrigued. Because the MMC is starting off as a drug addicted asshole and I don’t know how Shae Sanders is going to get me to root for them as a couple. #Booksky #Blackbooksky

CR
This Woven Kingdom- 68% slow paced, great world building, not as much plot as I’d hoped.
Woven by Gold- 32% a good time if I don’t analyze anything.
The Bewitching-25% Started slow as 3 timelines had to be introduced, but now I’m intrigued.

Starting another physical book tonight. The first in this series was very fun and this is a short one so I should be able to finish tonight. #Mocktail is green tea/ginger/mint + habanero syrup. It has the perfect amount of kick 😋 #Booksky #Blackbooksky

Not really in the mood to read today but my #mocktail is fire. Coffee with pistachio cold foam and whipped cream. A pistachio and dark chocolate sugar rim. I was going to add some chocolate rum syrup but decided it would be too many flavors.

I’m in the mood for dystopian today. I’m only 11% in but The Art Thieves feels like a great read already. I’m intrigued because I can’t tell where this is going at all. I was choosing between this and Curdle Creek but CC is starting off a bit too slow for me. #Booksky #Diversebooksky #Blackbooksky

I recently read an ARC of this fun little novella. It’s perfect if you like a morally ‘dark’ grey couple who aren’t trying to make one another better and perfectly match each other’s freak. It releases 9/8 #Booksky
