3⭐️ Well this book hit me a little different than most. Because I didn‘t hate it, but I didn‘t love it at all. In fact, I wanted to DNF it multiple times, but there wasn‘t a valid reason for me to do it. Because it was a good story I just wasn‘t connecting to it. Took me two weeks to read 350 pages and a 50%. I really questioned myself. It was good but it has been deleted from my Kindle. #69 for #Roll100 and #DoubleSpin for #BookSpinBingo

2⭐️ this is a vampire love story where our MMC finds the reincarnation of his soulmates soul every generation. The best part about this book, was it was short enough that I could finish without having to DNF. Oh, and I get to take another one off my Kindle. This was #15 for August. #Roll100 and my #DoubleSpin for #BookSpinBingo

4.2⭐️ and this will make my last read for July. I am exhausted, but I completed my goal getting these last three books read before the end of the month. This one is cute, and I enjoyed it for the most part. There were definitely things that I would‘ve liked to seen in the story, as well as things that I could‘ve lived without. But overall, it‘s something I would keep on myself. This was my #Roll100 book number 84 for July.

4.5⭐️ this book was a gift that I didn‘t think I would like. Never read an F1 romance before, but I did watch Driven on passion flicks, which was great, and based off another book. Been holding onto this one since Easter, so I decided to push it through as one of the final reads of the month, and I‘m glad I did. well, I felt like the plot could be a little more, I love the story. Its a fun, spicy & sweet read that I do recommend.

4.2⭐️ This is quite a twist on the Sleeping Beauty legend, but I really enjoyed it. I expected more with the ending, but Im not quite sure what more would look like. Definitely a quick and easy read by Kingfisher, but still feel that it is absolutely worth the time.

Here are the #ReadBannedBook and #FriendsPick for August.

Whoa, where did July go. I feel that this year is just flying by. Hope it slows down just a little so I can get some more reading in. Speaking of, here is my #BookSpinBingo list for August.

My #Roll100 reads for August. Lets hope I can at least knock these three out this month.

2.6⭐️ Anybody else trying to get as much reading in as I can in the next four days. I got three more, I‘m trying to get done, let‘s see how I do. As for this book, I feel a little unfair as it was the AI generated audiobook that I hated. I think I might go back eventually and read this on Kindle And see if I have different feelings about it. This is also my #BookSpin for July‘s #BookSpinBingo.

3⭐️ her stuff is bizarre, and skirts really close to the taboo edge, yet I keep trying to go back to her. I say try because the majority of her stuff is why choose. And for some reason, I don‘t like trope, and I have tried. It‘s just not for me. But the horror element to the Romance has a chokehold on me, and it makes me sad that I can‘t read more. So if anybody has any recommendation on horror romances that are not why choose, please share.

I can‘t believe July is coming to an end already. So many more books I wanted to read this month, but just didn‘t have the time. But as we close out this month, I want to introduce the new books for the #FableBookClub. If you like the thrills and chills, join us at the #RoaringWolfFrightNight. If fantasies more your speed, join us at #TheWyvernScrolls. Links for both our below.

4.8⭐️ Cozy Spicy Fantasy. The story was so fun, and just what I needed for the month. I enjoyed the character development, the plot and all the quirky side characters. Took away from it just a little bit was feeling like I‘m in a fantasy world at one point, to turning around and I feeling like I‘m in New Orleans. It just shifted me out of the story a little bit, but overall this was an amazing, quick and funny read. #HomeTownBookClub

5⭐️ "All we're promised is now". This book was one of two that was picked for my #HometownBookClub book read for July. I wanted something cozy this month, but this was definitely not that. What I can say is this book is absolutely PHENOMENAL! What I expected was a cute pirate treasure hunting type of book. What I got was bad ass sea witches, archaeology finds, so much drama, and a great love story. Just love, no spice. 10/10 recommend.

4.3⭐️ I went into this book thinking I was reading a horror, and I was wrong. This was the July #FableBookClub horror pick for #RoaringWolfFrightNight. Though it didn‘t live up to the horror I was looking for, this was one of the best paranormal cozy mysteries I‘ve ever read. I look forward to continuing the series, slowly because it‘s very big. Lesson learned in picking a horror book, though… always check the genre!

5⭐️ I know not everybody‘s going to agree with me on this, and that‘s OK. The first time I read this book I rated it four stars. Reading it again reminded me how much I loved it, and if I can still love it the second time around, and want to read it again, it‘s a five star. This was us on my February‘s #DoubleSpin for #BooksSpinBingo. So a big thank you too @StayCurious for creating this group and helping me reach this reading goal.

My new bookish tattoo… I love it but she is a bit sore right now.

3.6⭐️ Well that was an abrupt ending. I guess that mean I‘m in another series now. I will say this, I enjoyed the movie a little more than the book. I know, weird, but I got a bit confused with all the extra characters. And the ending seemed so rushed and incomplete. I liked it, I was just expecting more. #FableBookClub #TheWyvernScrolls

4.6⭐️ let me start by saying that this was my #ReadBannedBooks for July, and it was better than I thought it was going to be. I wish it would‘ve read this one so much sooner, especially since apparently there‘s four books of the series. I mean, I‘m glad there‘s more because that ending was not enough, but dang. Also, really scary similarities to what‘s going on right now. I will be continuing this one next month.

4⭐️ this is the second book in the Persons Non Grata series. Seeing that it was written in 2017, I don‘t see another one coming. As I said in my previous review for book one, this is Lovecraftian horror. And while I enjoyed book one a smidge more, book 2 is still really good. We still followed Pearson in a way, but the other characters took center stage. It‘s a quick short read, and what I will consider reading again in the future.

4.5⭐️ I won‘t lie, I have a bit of an obsession with the Hades and persephone story. So of course, I am in the middle of Lore of Olympus, but when I saw that there was another graphic novel about their story, I could not help but to pick it up. And I‘m so glad I did. I loved how this came together, and the only thing I‘m truly sad about is the fact that book 2 doesn‘t come out until September. 10 out of 10 recommend.

5⭐️ i‘ve been sitting here for the last 30 minutes, trying to figure out how to write this, still crying because this book literally crushed my soul. I almost didn‘t read it because I thought it might be a “why choose”, which I‘m not into. It‘s not, which is good for me, but holy crap does my heart hurt. It tackles mental health, connection and learning to love yourself. Lots of spice, but it‘s dark so check your trigger warnings. 10/10 recommend.

3.2⭐️ to be honest, I struggled with this one. Several times I really considered DNF, but I‘ve heard how good it was. And I‘ll admit, closer to the end it was much more enjoyable. But I seriously started this book on June 10 and just finished today. Almost a month for a book that‘s a little over 200 pages. I truly think I kept it up just because it was June‘s fable pic. Oh well, better books ahead.

4.8⭐️ I loved this! I honestly don‘t know what‘s wrong with me, but multiple times throughout the story, all I could think was “ OMG, how cute!” Only thing I would have changed was with the plot twist at the end of the book. Didn‘t mind the twist, but I did mine that we just breezed by it after the fact. Could‘ve used a little more closure on that, but besides that, freaking amazing! 10/10 recommend, but please read your trigger warnings.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin for Julys #BookSpinBingo.

4.7⭐️ I had to slow start with this book, which is the only reason I got 4.7 and not 5 stars. Otherwise, the story was an amazing and super quick read. Once it had me, I could not put it down. If you‘re looking for a great Halloween read, this is one for you. And to follow it up, there‘s also a movie based off this book, which I will be watching this weekend. 10 out of 10 recommend. This was also my #DoubleBookSpin for June‘s #BookSpinBingo.

And with my worst books of 2025 so far, I also give you my last post for the night. Here‘s to a booked year and to happier books ahead.

Hear my top read so far for 2025. Am I being a little biased with Lights Out? Yes, yes I am. And I‘m OK with this. That book had me rolling I was laughing so hard. Sometimes that‘s what you really need.

My #ReadBannedBooks and #FriendsPick for July.

July 2025 #HometownBookClub book reads.

My #Roll100 for July.

Here is my #BookSpinBingo for July 2025. My goal, if anything, is to read the post title as it has been on my TBR for over a year, and pretty much on every bingo cards since January.

I tried with these two. It‘s not that they were bad , they just were not what I wanted to read. Who knows, maybe I will wanna read them later on, but trying to force myself to finish them preventing me from reading anything else for the rest of the month. So they‘re being DNF so I can get to something better for me.

4.2⭐️ it‘s listed as horror, but it doesn‘t feel like horror. Let me rephrase that, it feels more like lovecraftian horror. I also feel like the plot needs to be tightened up a little bit on this one, but I really enjoy the writing style in general, despite it being occasionally jumbled. Based on the characters in this book, the jumbled writing actually connected well though. I liked it a lot… Enough to immediately go buy a book 2.

5⭐️ & 5😭 four minute I was like, yes!, Because I really thought I got out of that unscathed. Yeah I was wrong. This is booked three of the Before The Coffee Gets Cold series, and I can honestly say that I have not had a dry eye in the three that I‘ve read so far. It‘s touching, heartfelt and just emotionally damaging, but in a best way. I absolutely love the series and I will continue to read them as long as the author continues to release them.

4.8⭐️ I expected darker, but it was still amazing. And it was what I needed when I was kind of in a dark spot myself. I could not stop laughing, the chemistry between the characters was phenomenal. I was expecting more after she left her uncle‘s house, despite the epilogue, so that was kind of disappointing. Otherwise, I highly recommend, this was a fun ride. #BookSpin for Aprils #BookSpinBingo

3.3⭐️ This book left me so confused, that I reached out to @Roary47 and asked her to pick it up and read it with me, which she absolutely did cause she‘s the best. In the end, it wasn‘t as bad as I thought it might be, but I think it could‘ve been better if it wasn‘t condensed into such a small book. The purpose behind it makes it worth a read, which is further explained in the afterword. This is my #BookSpin for #BookSpinBingo for June.

I seriously needed this today. My day has been shit, my emotions have been shit… it is just one of those days. So I took a pause from real life and threw on my 🎧 on, and now I have been sitting at my desk hoping people do not hear me laughing. I can‘t believe it‘s takin me so long to read this.

4⭐️ there‘s a lot I wanna say with a little space to say it. 1st, I read about 75% of the book before I took the dust jacket off and figured out the book was gorgeous. This book was super good, and it would‘ve been five stars, except there was always so much going on. I like a twist and turns in my stories, but this may have been a little overkill. And the ending left me wanting, so I‘m hoping a book 2 is coming. #DoubleSpin 4 April BookSpinBingo

5⭐️ this is not your typical Neil Gaiman and read. But that doesn‘t take away from this at all. This is super short, and the thought put behind writing this poem is just as beautiful as the poem was itself. If you have five minutes, pick up this book. I checked it out for free on hoopla.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin for #BooksSpinBingo this month, June 2025.

And here I thought I posted this like a week ago, but apparently I did not. Here is my read list for #BookSpinBingo for June.

4.2⭐️ I love the story. It was a beautiful story of redemption and forgiveness incorporating Polish folklore. I am new to most of these legends, but I have heard of Baba Yaga, who was a prominent part of the story. This was the May Fable fantasy read, and I do plan to read book 2.

Happy June 1st. This month in our Fable fantasy book club we are reading a book about two time traveling agents who are on opposite sides of basically a never-ending war. If you are interested in joining us, please follow the link. We would love to have you! https://fable.co/club/the-wyvern-scrolls-with-littlewolf-178259080199

4⭐️ please don‘t misunderstand me, because I really like this book. It was inspiring and eye-opening. But I have been emotional lately and I don‘t think I was in the right headspace to connect the way I could‘ve. I feel like I should‘ve hit pause and gone back to finish the read another time. So that‘s what I plan to do, despite the fact that I have finished it, I‘m gonna pick it up again later this year and reread it. #ReadBannedBooks for May.

4.3⭐️ I went into this years #Roll100 with the idea that most of these books were going to suck, which would give me the opportunity to delete them from my Kindle and clean up the mess created during the #StuffYourKindle events. However, this book was actually pretty great and now I want to continue the series. This is my first MC dark romance but it will definitely not be my last.

I‘m not a big fan of dystopian, but in the great and powerful wheel of genres chooses dystopian, we go to dystopia. This is our #HometownBookClub read for June, and I have high hopes for it as this is written by the same woman who wrote The Handmaids Tale.

Here is the #ReadBannedBooks and the #FriendsPick reads for the month of June. I have not yet read anything by Octavia Butler, but I‘m really looking forward to this read.

4⭐️ well, this was actually better than I expected it to be. I always consider myself an ally, but having a new perspective allows me to provide support in new ways. When the principal came to her and told her “my door is always open”, it made my heart smile. Beautifully written, and easy to understand. This was my #ReadBannedBook read for April. I‘m late, but I‘m glad I still got it read.

4.3⭐️ I love this… I thought it was super cute and fun and definitely had the cozy fantasy feel. This was our May book choice, along with two graphic novels, for my #HometownBookClub. I will say I got a little bit more spicier than I expected, but I read a lot spicier so it didn‘t bother me. However, we usually try to stay away from spice in our Book Club picks as not everybody enjoys them, so that was offputting. Otherwise, 100% recommend.
