The Cemetery Boys and The Bronzed Beasts are both on my “must read list” for 2023 so I’m really hoping I will finally get to them.⁣
⁣
But I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump lately. And when I’m not in a slump, I’m a mood reader so we’ll see how well this goes.⁣

Are you a seasonal reader?⁣

QTOD: What are some countries/places you’d like QTOD: What are some countries/places you’d like to visit?

I’d love to visit France one day. Or even Montreal in Canada.

Otherwise what good was enduring six years of French lessons in school?

And books set in France, like Courting Darkness, just make me want to travel there, even more.

On a side note, I loved reading Grave Mercy but still haven’t really finished that series or started this one. 😅

Do you like spin-off series or books?

QTOD: What’s your favorite sequel? One of mine QTOD: What’s your favorite sequel?

One of mine is Where She Went by Gayle Forman.

Honestly, I like it more than If I Stay. No spoilers, but let’s just say I’m a fan of angsty reads…

It’s also one of the sequels that I find more memorable than the first book. Maybe because I prefer it and therefore reread it more often?

Off topic, but do you have any Kindle Unlimited recs?

My subscription ends in two weeks and I don’t plan on renewing - I plan on playing bookopoly with my physical tbr so I don’t want to pay for it. 😅

I'm reading The Blonde Identity by Ally Carter right now.⁣ I'm enjoying it so far and it's making me want to reread the Gallagher Girls again.⁣
⁣
I mean they both have heroines with amnesia, who love to make lists, and may or may not be into making out with a hot spy, sorry, I mean, Operative.⁣
⁣
Now if only I could spend more time actually reading and less time scrolling... 😅⁣

QTOD: What’s the ONE book you hope to read by th QTOD: What’s the ONE book you hope to read by the end of this year?

I really, really, really, REALLY, want to read The Bronzed Beasts by the end of the year.

Finishing The Gilded Wolves trilogy is one of my reading goals for 2023, especially since I enjoyed the first book and The Silvered Serpents so much.

It’s just I am TERRIBLE at finishing series I don’t binge, especially when it’s time to read the last book.

I guess I just don’t want the series to end, and in my (confused) mind, the story isn’t over until I finish that last book.

Are there any series finales you’ve been putting off reading?

QTOD: What’s your toxic reading trait?⁣ ⁣ Mi QTOD: What’s your toxic reading trait?⁣
⁣
Mine is reading books not on my tbr.⁣
⁣
Which wouldn’t be toxic on its own if I didn’t have 100+ books that I OWN and have been on my tbr for YEARS at this point.⁣
⁣
I’ve already exceeded my 2023 goal of reading 52 books, but have only read ONE book from my physical tbr… and that was a reread. 🤦🏻‍♀️⁣
