QTOD: Is there a book or series you read every yea QTOD: Is there a book or series you read every year?

Ever since 2018, I’ve been rereading The Naturals series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes every year. Every. Single. Year.

I guess it’s one series I’ll never get tired of reading. Which is kind of funny, because of all the books I reread, I tend to reread thrillers and mysteries the least - I feel like they’re a little less fun and interesting after the mystery has been solved. But not with The Naturals.

The characters are just so well written and have such a fun dynamic with each other that it always sucks me right back in, even if I already know who’s the killer.

I really wish there were more books as part of this series. If you like Criminal Minds and are looking for a YA book to read, I highly recommend The Naturals.

Which series do you wish were longer?

QTOD: What’s your first read of 2023?⁣ ⁣ Min QTOD: What’s your first read of 2023?⁣
⁣
Mine was Lovelight Farms, which I actually started a couple of days after Christmas. I was still in the festive mood, I guess. And a pair of best friends forced to fake dating⁣ seemed like a good way to spend my holiday days off.⁣
⁣
I enjoyed it for the most part - I definitely recommend this book if you’re in the mood for a lighthearted (and funny) read set at a Christmas tree farm. And it had me grinning for most of it - it was that fun!⁣
⁣
But I also haven’t wanted to shake a character so badly in a really long time.⁣
⁣
What’s your favorite trope?⁣

QTOD: Are you a rule breaker for a rule follower?⁣
⁣
Thank you so much @entangled_publishing for this copy of Breaking All the Rules by Amy Andrews! I can’t wait to read it!⁣
⁣
I’m usually more of a rule follower - I like to play things safe and avoid as many conflicts as possible. But there are some rules that were definitely made to be broken. Like my mom’s “no reading past your bedtime” rule when I was kid. Yep, I broke that one a lot. 😅⁣

QTOD: What are some of your goals for this year?⁣
⁣
Honestly, beyond the basics, I haven’t really ironed mine out yet. All I know is I’m aiming⁣
to read 52 books again, with at least six coming from my own shelves. And go on a bit of⁣
a book-buying ban.⁣
⁣
Oh, and that #CemeteryBoys and The Gilded Wolves trilogy are at the top of my tbr.⁣

What books are at the top of your tbr this year?⁣

QTOD: What’s the last book you were gifted?⁣
⁣
I gifted a copy of Striker the Zither to myself! I was so excited for it, I had it preordered since early last year.⁣
⁣
Unfortunately, I haven’t had the time or mood to read it since I got it two months ago. But it’s definitely on top of my TBR for 2023!⁣
⁣
Do you prefer receiving books or would you prefer gift cards from bookstores?⁣
