Yes! Madeline Miller was friendly and approachable at my local indie bookstore. #sundayfunday
pickA reread for me, as I stopped reading the WEBTOON a year or so ago (I think) and have some catching up to do! Love this series. #TBRtarot
I don't buy new new books anymore. I'll always opt for second hand or from the library which is what I intended to do with the Trails of Apollo books but I found the book set cheaper new than second hand.
Won't get to these until next year with #RiordanverseReadalong I'm excited though
panWell that was…something. I think I prefer Katee Robert‘s Hades x Persephone retelling, since this one dragged for the last two hours of the audiobook. If these two would just, idk, talk? to each other? So many of their issues would‘ve been resolved. Also, Persephone is 21. Like human 21. And Hades is literally millions of years old. No thanks, my curiosity is satiated, I won‘t be continuing this series.

pickEn mi escuela nos ponen a leer un libro por mes, y este libro me impresionó, tiene una historia buena, personajes desarrollados, y una redacción entendible que hace que te adentres más en el libro, pero en los capítulos pasan cosas que hacen que te distraigas un poco del tema central.
Recomiendo este libro para personas entre 9 - 15 años.
pickDefinitely not my favorite but definitely liked the ending and knowing more about Sally. She‘s my favorite mom. Don‘t tell the other moms.
pickPersephone, daughter of Demeter, strikes a deal with Hades in his nightclub while disguised as a mortal college student. Persephone has six months to figure out how to create life in the underworld. She‘ll come to find a life worth living while doing so. Meanwhile, hades has another deal with aphrodite in the works that may impact this one. Steamy and sinful, yet focusing on the overall underlying good in humanity, this is romantsy at its best!
Picking this book for the #readingbracket2025 was not a hard decision. It was a wonderful book and by far my favorite this month! Now, the hard part is going to be which book wins the bracket. Probably The House of Hades, but I‘m posting this at 1:30am and don‘t want to choose right now.
