QOTD: Who’s your most read author this year?⁣

QOTD: Who’s your most read author this year?⁣
⁣
Mine is definitely Nalini Singh.⁣
⁣
I mean, there’s absolutely no competition - 30 of the 62 books I’ve read so far this year were written by her.⁣
⁣
THIRTY!⁣
⁣
After that I have a bunch of authors at 3 books each.⁣ 😅
⁣
I just love her books!⁣
⁣
I’m not normally a fan of long series but I’ve been OBSESSED with her Psy-Changeling series and Guild Hunter series. Both of them are series with 15+ books but I wish they were even longer.⁣

Who are some of your favorite authors of 2023?⁣

QOTD: What are you currently reading?⁣
⁣
I’m still in a slump, but I’m hoping EBONY GATE will get me out of it.⁣
⁣
Honestly, I’m not sure if I’m really in a slump or just conflicted between reading books I want to read vs. feel like I need to read.⁣ 😅
⁣
All while trying to prep for the new year.⁣
⁣
Have you started thinking about your goals for 2024?⁣

QOTD: What’s a book you couldn’t put down?⁣

QOTD: What’s a book you couldn’t put down?⁣
⁣
Please recommend some to me!⁣
⁣
I’m in yet another reading slump after reading IRON FLAME. 😭⁣
⁣
If I didn’t have to go to work, I could have read it in one sitting. That’s how addicting it was.⁣
⁣
It was a great read but gave me such a bad book hangover.⁣
⁣
I just keep thinking of wild theories and thoughts.⁣
⁣
Have you read IRON FLAME? If you want to talk about it, feel free to message me.⁣

QOTD: Do you use the maps included in books?⁣
⁣
Honestly, I’m usually terrible at referring to maps in books.⁣
⁣
I’m too much of a plot junkee to take the time to look at the geography and make sense of it all.⁣
⁣
I just keep reading. 😅⁣
⁣
I only really look back at the map when geography and where the characters are / need to be is critical to the story.⁣
⁣
Otherwise, I just go “ooh pretty map” and forget about it.⁣
⁣
Do you have a favorite bookish map?⁣

QOTD: What’s the last book you bought?⁣
⁣
I’m supposed to be on a book buying ban, but I bought IRON FLAME. 😅⁣
⁣
I just couldn’t help myself and pre-ordered it anyway because I just had to know what would happen next. And it’s hard for me to exercise self-control anytime there’s a limited time offer (the stained edges).⁣
⁣
I got it off Amazon because I had a gift card, and in the past, Amazon was pretty good at shipping books on/close to the release date.⁣
⁣
Not the case for IRON FLAME.⁣
⁣
I didn’t get a shipping notification until SUNDAY.⁣
⁣
Which gave me some anxiety. And it didn’t help that Amazon changed the image feature the book WITHOUT the stained edges.⁣
⁣
Anyway, it was finally delivered (with the stained edges), so now I can start my reread of FOURTH WING.⁣
⁣
If only I could decide which copy to read…⁣
⁣
If you have multiple editions of a book, how do you decide which edition to read?⁣

QOTD: What’s one of your favorite nostalgic read

QOTD: What’s one of your favorite nostalgic reads?⁣
⁣
The Gallagher Girls series is definitely one of mine.⁣
⁣
It might actually be the very first YA book I ever read.⁣
⁣
Or at the very least, it’s the book series that forced me to discover my library’s young adult section. I remember searching the middle grade section high and low five times, not understanding why it wasn’t there until the librarian redirected me to the other side of the library. 😅⁣
⁣
Now, almost 15 years later, it’s still one of my favorite series, especially when I need a good comfort read.⁣
⁣
If you swipe left, you’ll see the dedication page of Ally Carter’s newest book, THE BLONDE IDENTITY.⁣
⁣
It says “For the GGs. I’m so proud of you”.⁣
⁣
I thought it was really sweet, especially since I feel like THE BLOND IDENTITY exists within the Gallagher Girls universe.⁣
⁣
Is there a dedication that sticks with you?⁣

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish eleme

QOTD: What are some of your favorite bookish elements or tropes?⁣
⁣
I love reading books that feature a strong sibling bond, dragons, and a major dilemma. Oh, and I love a good story about the chosen one trope.⁣
⁣
All of these elements are included in SO LET THEM BURN by Kamilah Cole. Thank you so much @thenovl for gifting me an ARC!⁣
⁣
I can’t wait to read this Jamacian-inspired fantasy!⁣
⁣
Have you received any book mail recently?⁣
