🐦‍⬛The Raven Scholar by Antonia Hodgson

✅read for:
- an action-driven fantasy that raises the stakes constantly and sucks you in
- tournaments and conspiracies

❓caveats:
- the world is interesting but a bit shallow, hopefully the sequels deepen it
- some predictable plot twists

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

A House with Good Bones by T. Kingfisher

✅ read for:
- T. Kingfisher’s signature creepy vibes
- believable villain and gripping plot twist

If you enjoyed Harry Potter but hate transphobia, here are better books about having teen angst at magic school 💙📚:

• A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik
• Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
• The Magicians by Lev Grossman
• A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking by T. Kingfisher

i think there’s a huge difference between reading books, and reading books with intention. i would rather appreciate all my books slowly and fully, light and more complex reads alike, than fall into the trap of viewing reading as another productivity goal to fulfill.

Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins

- propaganda & the importance of media literacy
- perpetuating propaganda by not recognizing it
- social change as a landslide made of small pebbles of individual contributions over time

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
must read for all Hunger Games fans
