The Sundial is incredible, up there with We Have Always Lived in the Castle and Hill House for me! And knowing your tastes, I think you'll definitely love it
you need to read cursed bread and the water cure!!! both are so good, you’ll love them. i‘ve even loved the water cure more than cursed bread but ever since reading cursed bread sophie makintosh has become one of my favorite authors
I devoured Part Of Your World in under 48 hours - it was just magical! I immediately listened to the Yours Truly audiobook after finishing it, and will be reading Just For The Summer very soon. There’s just something about Abby Jimenez's writing style... and the MMCs are just chef's kiss! If We Were Villains was my first 5 star book of this year. The blending of dark academia setting with Shakespeare was everything I wanted. Hope you enjoy these books too!
Lovedddd if we were villains! I have the secret history on my fall tbr and I’m worried about comparing the two 😂 also I LOVE your thumbnails! Do you use procreate?
YES!! id love to see you read the Poppy War Trilogy!!! 💖 i still havent finished the last two bc im so scared of my reactions after the first one so it would be fun to watch along and read!! 😇
Would love to see a poppy war trilogy reading vlog! The first book broke me, so def prepare yourself for the emotional damage that rfkuang is so good at writing.
What’s one book anyone would recommend to someone who was a complete bookworm as a child but only reads now and again as an adult? I feel inspired to get back into reading - I love your videos! ❤
re: post apocalyptic stories! have you read how high we go in the dark? I haven't read it yet but it's been in my tbr forever precisely because of this ps: I loved 100 years but I read it with a class so I would recommend taking it really slowly and looking for discussions online per chapter or maybe doing readalongs or a buddy read or smth. its an intimidating book that is really aided by learning about the context, taking it slow, and trying to understand it very consciously (imo!) hope you love it
I LOVE magic realism, I LOVE Haruki Murakami's books, All's Well by Mona Award, Untold Night and Day by Bae Suah, Death Valley by Melissa Broder and Earthlings by Sayaka Murata, so I thought that I would LOVE 100 Years of Solitude, but the surrealism in that book, the too similar family names and the strange pacing, somehow didn't click with me, I just felt exhausted. I'm not saying that you won't like it, but that book is on a completely different league (for the best or the worst, depending on the reader). My recommendation is just to read it without expectations, which I think was my mistake. I'm still intrigued by his other books but I don't see myself giving 100 Years of Solitude another chance in the future. That being said I'm glad that I've read it and I still recommend the experience :)
One Dark Window is on my owned tbr and I'm hoping to get to it in the Fall! Yup still need to read Winnipeg 😅😅😅 I wanna read The Ministry of Time too, it sounds like something I would love!
If We Were Villains is one of my favourite books - I’ve also preordered the new book too. I have read both this and The Secret History and loved them both (maybe IWWV slightly more) - just try not to go into comparing it ♥️
When you read if we were villains, you should probably sit down with a complete works of Shakespeare for reference because so many extracts are casually dropped throughout the book without really much of an explanation
I'm not sure if you've read Severance by Ling Ma, that's a good literary distopian. I also have Memory of Animals on my list which is apparently similar
girllll please read one hundred years of solitude so I can finally know if I should read it or not, I avoided it during high school because I was so intimidated by it 🥺📔

It's hard to put The Ministry of Time into one basket. It's literary-comedy-scifi-historical-romance fiction 😂
📖xx
Currently in Seven Days in June and I’M LOVING IT, oh god you need to read it. Not a romance reader but there is much more topics explored 📖🤌
