Oh my goddess…this book hit an itch I didn’t know I had. Even more than Fourth Wing, like way more. And dare I say, rivaling ACOTAR?! I feel like this was ACOTAR adjacent but pure adult. And even though it’s an unfinished series (only two books with a 1.5 novella out so far) this, honestly may be the best book/series I’ve read this year, if not a few years!!

I’m 84% of the way through The Ashes and the Star Cursed King (#2) and I know it’s going to leave me an absolute mess at the end. I just know it!!

Why did I sleep on this one for so long!! 😭

obsessed with mass market paperbacks. their pleasing rectangular proportions. how they fit badly in a hoodie pocket so you can drag them around everywhere with you like a temporary little buddy. the way they fit in your hand because they're MADE for human hands and not as bookshelf decoration. the way the pages feel when you riffle them gently with your thumb. How pristine and crisp they look when you get them and how creased and folded they look when you're done, even if you try to be nice to them. how that wear is okay, how that's correct actually, because they're made with the philosophy that books aren't meant to be PRETTY, they're meant to be read. that little ripple new ones get on the left side from where you hold them when you're reading, the way the ripple only goes as far as you've read, because u change stories by reading as they are changing you. how you can find thousands of these creased and folded and loved little dudes in every thrift store and used book shop and neighborhood library and you can instantly see the ones that someone carried around in a backpack for weeks or read to pieces or gave up on halfway through because they wear being read like fresh snow wears footprints. I love these poorly made, subpar little rectangles so much. truly the people's books.

I wish there was a way I could wipe my memory and watch The Fall of the House of Usher for the first time again 😭

This was…such a trip. A poetic and beautiful trip, but still a trip! A newly married man who is slowly turning into a shark? The story is as bizarre as the concept, but it was so beautifully written. I’ve never read anything like it before.

I felt like this book was a float down a lazy river. It wasn’t the fastest paced, but it was enjoyable and the scenery was beautiful if abstract.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Have you read Shark Heart by Emily Habeck? If so, what did you think?

[relyksandwolfcraft]

This was such a fun read! The dedication says it’s a love letter to the romance genre and they weren’t lying! This was my first Christina Lauren book but it definitely won’t be my last!

[relyksandwolfcraft]

Don’t mind me..just over here suffering a major book hangover after devouring this thing in one day 🥲

[relyksandwolfcraft]

This book…was certainly a good read for me but it was definitely not my happy place 😅 but still a really solid story!

Just saw Asteroid City and I still don’t know what I watched but I enjoyed it
