Another art piece of mine and my friend's OCs Echo and Magpie. Magpie likes gifting random gifts to Echo just to say some punny pick-up lines. Yes, Echo kept the toad and contacted a taxidermist to preserve it.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC!

Beautifully tragic gothic horror written in poetic prose by my new favorite autobuy author! If you loved Don't Let The Forest In by the same author, you'll love this!

Comes out in October!

I've never done one of these blind date with a books before, but I've always thought it looked like fun. And since this was my final day of cancer treatments, I thought I should celebrate.

Book Journal Update

Halfway through February, I read a bunch, but I don't have any finished books to show for it. All the books so far, save for the two I'm currently reading, have been DNFed.

❓️How's your month of reading going so far?

I get so busy or hyperfixate on something else that sometimes I forget about this app. Oops!

Have an updated selfie of me, I guess?

My husband read this, so here's his review:

I Roved Out: Tome 2 by Alexis Flower

Rating: 💀💀💀💀💀 (5)
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 (5)

This is the compendium continuing I Roved Out, and like the rest, it's just completely perfect.

I keep a simple book journal that I update the middle of the month and then end of the month. This wraps up January. Do you keep a book journal? #booksky
A grid handdrawn on journal paper is seen, with a color grid for how many pages read and January filled in with different colors each day. Reading Goal is 75 books. A list of books read written down in a journal: the rating, the title, the author, and when the book was read.
