Just finished James Islington’s ‘The Will of the Many’ - I need someone else to come yell incoherently with me about that ending please I’m actually begging. The book hangover from this will be a force to be reckoned with 🙃

Happy Valentine’s Day! No matter your romantic situation, we can all agree that a book makes a great present (for you, for your loved one). Oh look! A book! It looks good 👀 (there’s also a love story in it which means this Valentine’s Day marketing makes sense 😌)
