QOTD: What’s a book you read because of bookstag

QOTD: What’s a book you read because of bookstagram?⁣
⁣
I'm thinking of reading THE STOLEN HEIR since I saw a couple of people recommending it. But it's been a while since I read YA so I'm still debating.⁣
⁣
Still, I think it'd be fun to see what Jude and Cardan are up to, assuming they're included in the newer books.⁣
⁣
As a side note: I think it's kind of funny how I was one of the first to read THE CRUEL PRINCE but am very late to possibly reading THE STOLEN HEIR. 😅⁣
⁣
Are you a fan of spin-off series?⁣

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish maps?

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish maps?⁣
⁣
I always admire all the pretty maps in whatever book I’m reading, and then promptly forget about them the moment I get to the first pages of the novel. 😅⁣
⁣
I’m just someone who embodies the statement “out of sight, out of mind.” If I can’t see it, I’ll probably forget it exists until I need it for reference.⁣
⁣
That said, I think the map in WE HUNT THE FLAME is one of the best I’ve seen. It’s so pretty and elaborate.⁣
⁣
Do refer to bookish maps while reading?⁣

QOTD: How was your August?⁣
⁣
My August was weirdly busy.⁣
⁣
And it doesn’t help that I got into a slump in the middle of the month - I currently have three books “on hold” or rather in my "to be finished" pile. Hence why Storygraph says I read 1,000+ pages even though the two books I finished only have 650 pages total.⁣
⁣
I’m currently deciding if I want to “officially” DNF or just keep them on hold, along with the SIX other books I haven't finished from earlier this year. 🙈⁣
⁣
Do you put books on hold to finish later or do you just DNF them?⁣

QOTD: What did you haul this month?⁣ ⁣ I went

QOTD: What did you haul this month?⁣
⁣
I went to my local library for the first time in 5 years and picked up most of the books in the Psy-Changeling Trinity series.⁣
⁣
I would prefer the ebook copies (more convenient) and also to borrow the whole series (I like to binge read series), but my library didn’t have them available. 😭⁣
⁣
And then, as luck would I have it, I found LAST GUARD at Dollar Tree while I was running errands. I’m supposed to be on a book buying ban, but I believe in fate so I HAD to pick it up.⁣
⁣
Do you visit your local library often?⁣

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish eleme

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish elements or literary devices?⁣
⁣
I love a good plot twist - one I don't see coming but also makes perfect sense.⁣
⁣
And of course, I also love found families.⁣
⁣
So it makes perfect sense why The Naturals is one of my favorite series.⁣
⁣
I think it might be time for my annual reread.⁣
⁣
Are there any books or series you tend to revisit every year or so?⁣

QOTD: What’s a book that you still need to read

QOTD: What’s a book that you still need to read?⁣
⁣
I’m hoping to finally read SPIN THE DAWN soon!⁣
⁣
I actually got it as a NetGalley ARC back into 2019 and pre-ordered a copy because I was convinced I would like it - I love reading Mulan retellings.⁣
⁣
But life happened and I just never got around to it. 🙈⁣
⁣
One of my reading goals for this year is to read a couple of books from my physical TBR. And of course, it’s the only reading goal I haven’t made any progress on. 😅⁣
⁣
Do you have any tips on how to tackle your physical TBR?⁣
