I don’t want Christmas books this holiday season, I just want cozy monster romance with a good amount of spice. 💚

I am struggling to find a book to read that gives me the excited binge feeling. 😭

Hunted by Erica Woods
I feel like this had so much potential. This book was just filler and dragged on non stop. It had some interesting things that kept you going, but then never paid off. I don’t think I will read the next one. 2.75⭐️

Sing Me Awake by R.A. Awake
I can’t say I particularly enjoyed this book, but I did appreciate how many bits of it were at least interesting. I won’t be reading the second book though. 2.75⭐️

I hate finding a book that I'm not really enjoying, but it's just holding my attention enough to keep trying to push through a bit longer. Like maybe it'll become good soon? The reviews made it seem like something I'd be super into. 🥲

Inked by the Ithaqua by Wendi Guff. It was fun, but I definitely enjoyed the Anubis one a lot more. The lack of communication was just getting a little too annoying in this one. 3⭐️

Audited by the Anubis by Wendi Gogh.
This was such a fun book! I devoured it. Definitely would read again. I’m sad it took me so long to finally read it after being recommended it so much. 4.25⭐️

Wolves and Whipped Cream by Ash Raven. Cute book, though it got kind of boring. It’s pretty spicy and has some good male body positive representation. Great if you’re looking for some plus size representation. 3⭐️

The Fake Mate by Lana Ferguson. This was a reread. I really love this one. Listened to the audiobook version this time. I really need to read more of Lana Ferguson's books. 5⭐

Mane of my Existence by Rhea Fox. My first leonid book. It was a fun, low stress romance, a decent bit of spice. Some parts did drag a bit, but it was still enjoyable.

3.75⭐️

Download for Demons by R. O’Leary. I dnf’d this one at 75%. I tried. Conceptually I liked it, but I was just so bored. I finished the 1st in the series a while ago and had forgotten I was just meh on it as well. On to the next monster romance 💚

I read Snapdragon by Sofia Rose. Super cute cozy monster romance with low stress. I’m feeling pretty burnt out, so I’m definitely wanting to binge more cozy low stakes stories right now. 4/5⭐️

274/300 done.
Reread Rejected by Jaymin Eve. I definitely remember really enjoying it the first time I read it over a year ago. This time it really dragged. It’s not bad, but it was a struggle to get through this time.

273/300 books read this year.
Just finished Rake by Nicole Parker. I feel obligated to read through the Kyleverse series due to the Furby one. It was… ok. Fun, but so far Faulty is the best of the series.

Finished my 6th reread of The Bonds That Tie series this year. Still my comfort read.

2 out of 6 of the books I ordered off of Amazon this weekend were really damaged. 😢

I'm trying to learn how to play the Otamatone, purely so I can play it as a Furby. I feel like my life is going somewhere.

I've spent nearly 2 years growing out my hair after having a pixie cut for nearly a decade. Now all I want is to chop it off again. I should do it, right?

Some delicate Furby surgery.

I dropped her trying to save my phone. Her poor ear.

How many times in a year can you reread a book series before it becomes concerning?

August 31 1998, Bomberman Hero debuted in the Americas!

The plot is practically Star Wars: A New Hope with an evil empire capturing a princess who has vital data that she gives to a robot...who then crashes on a desert planet etc.
The game even copies the Leia prison cell pose!
