After a few months of eyeing this cover at the bookstore, I gave in to finally picking it up and reading it myself. I only had time to read for a few minutes a day because of midterms. I do not usually annotate or write in books. Still, I can not resist having a dialogue between the words, whether it is a small "hahaha, I can relate to this" or giving characters advice, even though these characters are people living in this fictional world.

Above, we have Cousins by Patricia Grace but I’ll actually be reading her new short story collection Bird Child and other stories which I am very excited to get my hands on. I seem to have several short story collections on my library requests list which will be a nice…

February TBR--

It's Girl Scout cookie season AND I get to finally read the next book in The Empyrean series? It's going to be a good month. I'm also continuing on with the Sci-Fi series I started last month. Plus I'm diving into a translated High Fantasy novel that I found a few months back while browsing in a book store.

Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros (The Empyrean #2)-- Year two at Basgiath War College for Violet Sorrengail is destined to be more grueling and brutal than the first. Now the real training begins and Violet must contend with a new vice commandant who has made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is--unless she betrays the man she loves. But Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.

Iron Wolf by Siri Pettersen (Vardari #1)-- This is a Fantasy Mystery built on a foundation of Norse Mythology about blood, desire, and addiction. Juva knows all about blood readers. Praised for their Sight, they are nothing but swindlers preying on people's fears. Born by blood readers herself, she knows only too well and has vowed never to become one of them. Then her family is threatened by vardari, the eerie lasting ones, who never age. Juva is entangled in a desperate hunt for the blood readers' legacy: a dark secret that once changed the world and may do so again. I don't know a ton about this one. It was translated somewhat recently so I'm excited to get to it. The second book in the series has come out but has not been translated yet so hopefully I'm not setting myself up for heartbreak here.

The Exiled Fleet by J.S. Dewes (The Divide #2)-- The Sentinels narrowly escaped the collapsing edge of the Divide. They mustered a few other surviving Sentinels but with no engines they have no way to leave the edge of the universe before they starve. Adequin Rake has gathered a team to find the materials they'll need to get everyone out.

The Fake Out by Stephanie Archer (Vancouver Storm #2)-- In this one, we follow a girl who decides to get back at her horrible ex but fake dating his rival. But fake dating hockey star Rory Miller is fun and addictive. He's sweet, funny, and protective. He teaches her to skate, sleeps in her bed, and convinces her to break her just-one-time hookup rule. He kisses her like it's real. Which makes her wonder if Rory was ever faking it to begin with. There are just so many things here to make my heart happy. I liked but didn't love the first book in this series so I'm excited to see how I feel about book two.

Floating Hotel by Grace Curtis (NetGalley)-- Welcome to the Grand Abeona, home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. All year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the farthest reaches of the Milky Way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury--and a magnet for intrigue. I'm excited to see what kind of take on a Sci-Fi Mystery we get with this one.

Cursed Cruise by Victoria Fulton and Faith McClaren (Horror Hotel #2; NetGalley)-- We rejoin our group of teen ghost hunters as they're invited to travel onboard a haunted historic cruise ship. They'll record onboard the RMS Queen Anne, a transatlantic ocean liner with a colorful past of violent deaths. I'm excited to enter this world again. It's been about two years since I read and enjoyed the first one.

Such a Lovely Family by Aggie Blum Thompson (NetGalley)-- This one almost didn't make it to this list before it posted. I got approved for it late in the day while at work yesterday. But if I've got the time I'm going to read it before the end of the month. The Calhouns are in the midst of hosting their annual party to celebrate the cherry blossoms being in full bloom when a brutal murder transforms the yearly gathering into a homicide scene and all the guests into suspects. The family has secrets and drama and I'm sure they're stupidly rich. Who doesn't want to read about rich people drama?

I didn't realize how many second books in series I'm going to be reading during the month. I'm glad I'm making progress in these series. I know a lot of people in the bookish spaces are focused on reading series this year.

february tbr || Trying To... Trying To... -- February TBR || 72Hrs in the Haunted House & RomComathon!!

Something Wild & Wonderful by Anita Kelly

Along with that though, I’m also going to be offsetting those with the 72 Hours in the Haunted House readathon too, but I’ll be picking that tbr as I go.

Along with those, I’ve got a few extra like:

Rating: 4/5

🐺✨

I started Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross a few days ago and finished it this morning. I was immediately bewitched by the cuteness this paranormal romance book constantly exudes. The fact that it's a series with a standalone for each of the Savoie sisters is even more of an appeal. I look forward to reading the rest of the series. 🧚🏻‍♀️

I meant to post my February tbr a couple of days ago but got distracted by the books I’ve been reading 😅. And I maybe kind of already threw part of this tbr out the window 😂🤦‍♀️. So here’s what the original reading plan was:

Fake Dates & Mooncakes -almost finished

Omega’s Pretend Mate - 4⭐️

Magic Steps

F*ck and Fall In Love

Glass Syndrome

Take A Hint, Dani Brown

Power Plays & Straight A’s

Squire

Like Real People Do

Headcase

Somewhere in there all my ebook reading plans decided to change and now I’m trying to finish all of the Harris Cove series. We’ll see how it goes 😂.

Some physical books I want to start in February. Hopefully to finish, too.

But what I really want to talk about is Noli Me Tangere. I saw some gifs of the costumes in Maria Clara and Ibarra, which finally convinced me to give the show a go (I loooove period drama mainly because of the costumes). Started watching last night and three episodes in, I craved to read Noli.

I got the Charles Derbyshire translation on ebook and read until around 3am lol. I am surprised that it's so funny and readable? I'm having the time of my life reading it. School is so good at traumatizing us into shunning good books. 😅

💭 What are you planning on reading this month?

February TBR--

February is going to be the month I TRY to force myself to stick to my reading goals. I failed spectacularly in January by reading 8 more books than I had on my TBR. God, this is so the opposite of a problem. But I will say that January had me reading such small books that reading never felt like a chore. So, trying to stay in that mindset, I’m also going to be reading some shorter stuff in February.

1. Make a Wish by Helena Hunting (Spark House #3)-- I’m so excited to get to the finale of this companion series. The Spark House series follows three sisters who run an event hotel in Colorado Springs. This time it’s the youngest sister’s turn at love. We follow Harley and the guy she used to nanny for when he and his daughter move back to town after 6 years away. Can they navigate this romance with so much baggage weighing them down?

2. The Magic Misfits by Neil Patrick Harris (The Magic Misfits #1)-- I got this at a library sale...last year? The year before? At some point. It ended up being 50 cents or something like that so I thought I would take a chance on it. This one is the first book in a Middle Grade series that follows a street magician named Carter who has to save the town of Mineral Wells from the clutches of Bosso and his crew of crooked carnies.

3. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith-- This is another book from the library sale. It was also super cheap so I decided to give it a shot. It’s a 2012 YA Romance so we’re going to tread lightly here and keep our expectations low. It seems like this one is set over a 24 hour period and both at an airport and in an airplane so that will be fun to watch play out.

4. The Ruin of Kings by Jenn Lyons (A Chorus of Dragons #1)-- Okay, so maybe this isn’t a shorter book, but I’ve heard too much hype. I have to read it. We follow Kihrin who is a bastard orphan who grew up loving stories about dragons, demons, gods, and heroes who always save the day. But when he’s claimed by a treasonous prince as his long-lost son, he learns the stories aren’t all true. He lives as a prisoner to his new family’s power plays and ambitions. But let me give you my FAVORITE part of the synopsis: “Then again, maybe he’s not the hero, for Kihrin is not destined to save the empire. He’s destined to destroy it.” Let’s GOOOOOO. I’m trying not to give into the hype, but...come on. Come on.

5. Traitor’s Blade by Sebastien De Castell (Greatcoats #1)-- With this one, I’m continuing my 40 Books Before 40 TBR as well as my Kindle Clean Out Project. I didn’t know a ton about this one before I put it on the TBR. I got the recommendation from Jade/JadeyRaeReads on YouTube. This is an Adult Fantasy novel that follows the Greatcoats who were trained in the fighting arts and travel to uphold the King’s Law. Or at least they used to. Until they stood aside while the Dukes took the Kingdom and impaled their King’s head on a spike. The Greatcoats are scattered far and wide, reviled as traitors, their legendary coats in tatters. All they have left are the promises they made to King Paelis, to carry out one final mission.

6. Stars and Smoke by Marie Lu (Stars and Smoke #1)-- I have to say that I am SO lucky to have an ARC of this one. I really didn’t expect to get it when I put in the request on NetGalley. I’m trying to decide if I read it as soon as possible or if I wait and savor it at the end of the month. I’m going to keep the synopsis SO BRIEF to go into this knowing as little as I can. This one follows a superstar who has been tapped to become a secret agent and the reluctant young spy assigned to be his partner. I’m literally squealing over here. Shut your whole face. I don’t know exact what genre this story is going to lean into since GoodReads has it marked as a YA Romance/Contemporary/Mystery/Fantasy, but I’m here for it.

7. Greymist Fair by Francesca Zappia-- Another NetGalley ARC for this month. I’m also excited to get to this one. It’s slated as a suspenseful and inventive murder-mystery inspired by lesser-known Grimm fairytales. As someone who has read the whole of the Brother’s Grimm’s fairytales, I’m beyond psyched for this one. I’ll give you the brief synopsis from the top of the Goodreads page for this book: “The People of Greyfair Known that the woods are a dangerous and magical place, and that they should never set foot off the road. But when a young tailor discovers a body on the road, her search for the culprit reveals even more strange and dark happenings around her town.” Is this the right time of year for this sort of book? Depends on who you ask. Me? I’m always down for something good and dark.
