The mirror is a lie. Kingfisher's Hemlock & Silver is a unique, dark reimagining that you won't soon forget. (Plus, a perfectly cute romance! 🥰)

An unputdownable adventure! #TheDeathlyFates has a beautiful narrative style with a priestess & a prince on a journey full of spirits & stories, with a swoon-worthy #slowburnromance at its heart. April 2026 can't come soon enough! 📖

Just finished the #audiobook for The Austen Affairs & it's a must-listen! #enemiestolovers, #timetravel and a Jane Austen backdrop—this book has it all. It also deals with grief in a thoughtful way 🖤 10/10 recommend! 🤗

#july was BUSY!

despite only #finishing 4 books, I also started 3 books. 1 was DNFd, 1 paused & 1 #ARCread that I am loving so far & cannot wait to review with you!!

Here's to a slower month & more time between the pages ✨

I thought I did more in #june but it's probably bc I experienced a wide range of emotions from what I did consume 😆

🚫 pictured but started in June:

The Golden Age of Magic #kindle #primefirstread

The Crown of Gilded Bones #audiobook, #finished today ✨

The irony of my mental health taking a deep dive during mental health awareness month was not lost on me. The upside? Consumed lots of books, sound baths, breath work & slowly but surely finding a little peace in me one day at a time ✨

#finished this book a couple weeks ago now but have been battling my health. In the meantime, I created a new template & wanted to try it out! So here's a new temp...Whatcha think?

Been on a #trilogy kick lately... Crushed two series last week.

First up, #NoraRoberts, The Cousins O'Dwyer trilogy ✨ magical (naturally) that spans generations back and forth in time. A cozy little romance 💞

#someoneyoucanbuildanestin by #johnwiswell was interesting 🖤 It was curious, giving me some #frankenstein vibes with beautiful imagery and analogies of love & relationships. A unique dark romance/Gothic fantasy

Finally, I'm done with #sjm! Until the next book 😆 #ToG had been my favorite of the series but #crescentcity really pulled the worlds together making me love it just as much if not, a little more 🔥

10/10 #recommend

This #sequel didn't grab me as much as the first book did. It felt slower and a bit repetitive but I really liked the imagery and the way the story wrapped up👌🏻

#nature pics from yesterday which was wonderfully spent with friends, meeting new people, playing some games, petting the animals & burning our intentions because, "there's a little witch in all of us" 🖤

It's been rainy & gloomy in these parts but, we get by with a little help from our friends ✨

Finished listening to #daughterofthemoongoddess yesterday 👌🏻 what a beautifully written tale of love & endurance based on Chinese mythology 🐉I'm ready to start the second book to this duology so I'll follow up with that soon, I'm sure 😉

DEVOURED this #audiobook today on #spotify ✨ I wouldn't want to watch it go down but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it go down 😆 the format of the book & the narration was fantastic ✨ 10/10 if you're looking for an engaging #psychothriller #horror 👌🏻

Also finished these #audiobooks this month, wrapping up the last book today. I really enjoyed this #enemiestolovers #fantasy that kept me engaged in each book with the many reveals of the world that was created. The spice was delicious but not the plot ✨ the character growth & wit was on point 👌🏻

#finished #TheThorns 🫨 Full curiosity page after page. I felt anger, sadness, whimsy from the nostalgia of young love & heartbreak, fear & relief & awe

Gave me The Illusionist meets Fight Club vibes ✨ 10/10 recommend

My #current #kindleread from #primefirstreads this month is #thethorns

Only about 43% through this book but definitely gripped by the suspense it's been delivering. Can't wait to see how this story of obsession unfolds ✨

Just a little #bookish update!
#current #audiobook I'm consuming is #RuleOfTheAuroraKing 🌌 this is book 2 of the series and so far I'm really enjoying it except the use of the word, "irrevocably", a lot (to me) 😆 definitely a bit spicier than book 1 😏✨🥂

Apparently today is #NationalPuppyDay 🐾 a year ago today, we were looking at photos online of 3 potential fur babies, wondering if we'd come home with some extra love... Little did we know 🖤
