I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

My October list.

Not me looking over at my September #bookspin books that I didn‘t read…👀😳😞

It‘s okay. I‘ll get to them before the end of the year. 🤔😂

Exact quote: “He wanted to rape her. That's how far she'd pushed him.“

So. There's that.

Also, characters can only blow hot and cold with each other a few times before the trope becomes farcical.

October‘s #bookspin list is complete. I‘ve opted to just do one list this year, instead of the extra Spooky Season “bonus” board I had last year. I‘ve been trying to intentionally slow my reading this month, and I‘m not sure if I want to continue the slow, less pressured pace, or if I want to get more books read. 🤔

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 1w

Well, we are less than a week away from OCTOBER! Generally, fall is my favorite but also my busiest season. Things also went a bit off the rails this month, so things have been bonus chaotic!! Hoping to get back on track in October (my birthday month!!). It is FINALLY raining (before this week we had gotten less than an inch altogether since July 29!) and we are excited to see what colors all our new trees are!!

All this is a very rambly way of ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) that if you want to #BookSpin in October, it's time to start thinking about your lists!! And just a reminder, if you're also joining in Haunted Shelf, #BookSpinBingo counts as a readathon, so any book you read from your list gets those bonus points!!

Looking forward to see what everyone's reading!!

Earl Crush: A Novel | Alexandra Vasti

Okay, I picked this up on a whim and it blew me away! Such a delightful, audacious, and sexy romp of a story!
What starts as mistaken identity leads to adventures in espionage and a fake relationship, as Lydia and Arthur try to track down his brother who has been posing as the Earl. As things heat up, the two are thrust out of their comfort zones and find comfort in each other. I loved both of their character arcs so much! And the audiobook was 🔥

peanutnine Will definitely be reading the rest of the series, as this is technically book two #SeriesLove2025 2w
Cheshirecat913 Oh, this sounds cute and right up my alley. 2w
mcctrish I want to read this, I read The Earl‘s Trip and I thought this was part of that series but I realize this is a whole other rabbit hole to go down 2w

peanutnine @mcctrish oh yes! The title and covers are so similar! I read Earl's Trip and while it was fun, I thought this one was much better fwiw 2w
mcctrish My library has the first one and this one, so I‘ve just put holds on both (edited) 2w
peanutnine @mcctrish nice! Let me know how you like them whenever you get to them ☺️ 2w

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was exactly what I was looking for right now.
Full up of so much yearning & tension, most memorably as they were typesetting (not a euphemism), I was swooning at my desk.
Some spice, a supportive family, women pushing beyond their small boxes…what more could you need?
