I am hoping that the new ACOTAR will be an Azriel book. I know that he is mysterious and a shadow singer. But I feel like he will be such a golden retriever boyfriend. With each reread, I love him even more. I feel like he will end up being my favorite batboy. What do you think? How do you feel about our Az?

I caved to the booktok hype. I started watching off campus...and I get it The book, the Deal, wasn't even on my TBR but now it may be 2nd on the list (after dungeon crawler carl)

You know how the Chinese zodiac this year is the flaming horse...? Well I thought it was going to be all strength and power, blazing a path in 2026. and you know what, the exact opposite happened to me...or so I thought? In February, I hit a complete wall. I went MIA in the online space, and could not bring myself to do anything other than work, chores, read, and turn inward. I didn't want to give up on my goals and ambitions, but I just couldn't seem to make anything work. My routines went haywire and I just didn't have the energy or care do make anything happen. I thought I was just in a seasonal depression or a slump, but wasn't really sure what was going on, all I know is that I did not want to continue on the way I had been doing things...all effort, no changes. But I still felt off. I still felt like I should have been building momentum, because you know 2026, flaming horse, etc.....but I felt like just saying "fuck it" to the world, to expectations, to pressure. I put in my resignation in at work, got a suspension, and then had to serve on Jury duty. As of today (June 1, 2026), I'm slowly getting back into things and feel like one day, I will look on this season of "fuck it" mentality with gratitude, because its making me slow down and really figure out what I want and where in life I want to put my efforts. So maybe the flaming horse isn't about strength and brute force, but rather a mindset of fuck it, let's burn this place to the ground and forge a new path forward? Just something that came to me today. What do you think? Have you been having any "fuck it" mentality lately?

Share and go through and like the books you've already read... My current reads: Self-help: Unlimited Riches by Mark Victor Hanson. I just started this but have read other books by him that I have found helpful and inspiring. Fiction: The Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard (Book 2 of the Red Queen series)...this is a reread A Court this Cruel & Lovely by Stacia Stark. Im listening to this one and like the story so far, but I had to get used to the narrators. They are not my favorite, especially the male narrator. (I bought the bundle on chirpbooks for like $15 for all 4 books) 💲🥰🤩
