      ​@@BrittanytheBibliophile I've got all four published Bromance Book Club books (there's a fifth one that will be out this fall). The first book's okay but has a pretty bad 3rd act breakup for a ridiculous reason, the second is solid and a definite improvement, the third is a bit melodramatic, and the fourth is my personal favorite because it focuses on the guy that was the comic relief character in the last three books. Overall I recommend it.

    Kind of random knowledge from a flower lover but poppies are pretty uncommon to find because they don’t last long in the vase. They’re definitely more for growing and looking at than for cutting and arranging! I think it’s a birth flower though so if you want merch with poppies maybe go for birth flower things!

    If you like Dracula, you should try reading Go Hunt Me by Kelly DeVos. The synopsis is: And the castle that inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. The stage is set, the tiles are doled out, and the eerie castle has been booked. Alex Rush has all the makings for an epic film, but something or someone else unexpected may be lurking in the shadows.

    I'm currently reading The Wolf Den! It's definitely not a BookTok pick, but it was a Barnes and Noble monthly pick a few months ago so that's probably why it is on there. It's not a romance, but it deals with a brothel and a lot of sisterhood. I would say it is a historical fiction. There's not really any romance, but with the small bits of "love" in it its more denial, survival of the fittest, and sisterhood-ish love versus a romantic type.

    • @BrittanytheBibliophile

    Sometimes with new releases, especially manga, B&N tend to release books at least a week early. Keep an eye out next time they're something new you want. 😊

    • @BrittanytheBibliophile
      @BrittanytheBibliophile  2 роки тому

      Yes! Though I did hear from an author on TikTok that if you buy a new release before it’s actually released it doesn’t count towards the first week of sales which is the sales that they use for the New York Times best sellers, which for some thing like a re-released cover I don’t think should matter too much but now it’ll definitely make me hesitate (even though it’s super cool to find something early 😭)

    I love poetry. I wish I read more but it is a bit expensive sometimes. It also sometimes hard to get a feel for what you do like. I try to read a blend of modern and old poetry but I usually end up reading more old because I am more likely to get a deal. That being said, one of my favourite collections is Love Poems and Death Threats by Samual Wagan Watson. On the back, it says 'Anyone who writes a death threat utilises the same passion that can compose a love poem...in the same breath we all have the capacity to smite whilst we are smitten.' The author is aboriginal, and throughout this collection, he does explain some poems, such as when he refers to certain landmarks or aspects of aboriginal culture. It is modern poetry but to me it stands apart from the more mainstream kind you see a lot. Another collection I am recommending, partly because a while back you wanted whimsical reads, and I would describe this collection as whimsical and charming, even though the poetry is simplistic in some ways (not a criticism, just trying to describe it). It is called Tea With Death and it is by Abigail Wildes. This invites you to attend a tea party including guests such as Death herself, the ghost of a blackbird, witches, tortured souls, and zombies. It is just a collection that made me smile.

    B&N is really making an effort to compete on the brick-and-mortar level in the last several years, cause I think they've accepted that they can only supplement Amazon sales lmao. But I think reading IS trending upwards throughout the pandemic, so that's hopeful.
    As for poetry, highly recommend poetry by Louise Gluck (in particular Averno and Wild Iris). She's a Nobel winner in poetry recently. Also highly recommend the queen herself, Anne Carson (Autobiography of Red and Beauty of the Husband are SUBLIME), and my more underrated fave, Amy Lowell.
