Let's be book besties!

I'm feeling defensive of Fourth Wing by Rebecca Ya I'm feeling defensive of Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros today. 

What exactly makes a book "smut"? 

I don't see the difference between spicy scenes in books and spicy scenes in television. 

Why have I never heard the term applied to books written by men? 

Why should the inclusion of spicy content dismiss the important themes found throughout the books?
Why is everyone so stressed out about a book relea Why is everyone so stressed out about a book release? 

Reading is supposed to be fun. 

You have as much time as you want to read this. It's not food, it's not going to go bad. 

You don't need the new hardback set. 
You don't have a deadline. 
I don't care what anyone says- you don't have to read Crescent City. 

If you don't feel like rereading at all- there are tons of recaps online. 

And if you read Threshing Day and decided you'd rather stay in Basgiath than revisit Prythian? That's fine too!
Thanks to The Washwoman at River's End by @megansh Thanks to The Washwoman at River's End by @meganshadeauthor for breaking my almost year long romantasy reading slump. 

I was starting to struggle with one of my favorite genres. 

It felt like I was reading the same book over and over again. 

Or a checklist of tropes. 

So glad @erins_readingspace and @books.coffeeandthemoon raved about this book! 

I'm about a third of the way through and am so interested to see where this story goes. 

Qotd: What is a unique romantasy book you would recommend?
You think you can hurt me? I read the Throne of You think you can hurt me? 

I read the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas. 

I think about Kingdom of Ash every single day.

Happy Release Day @authorljandrews ! 🖤🖤🖤 He's the Happy Release Day @authorljandrews !

He's the grumpy pirate who hates being touched. 
She's the sunshine princess who loves a good snuggle. 

Now, they're shipwrecked. Alone. On an island. With no way home. 

What could go wrong?

THE STOLEN CROWN IS HERE! 🏴‍☠️

After a two year delay Tait and Mira might FINALLY  have a chance at coming home to the Ever Seas. 

If you love grumpy/sunshine with epic forced proximity, pirates, fae, and a meddling morally grey found family, you can dive into the next standalone Ever Seas installment TODAY! 

Snag a copy at your local bookstore and set sail with the Ever Crew again. 

Welcome back to the Ever Seas..

What are you reading? I'm currently reading The What are you reading? 

I'm currently reading The Wolves of War by John Gwynne.

This is my first John Gwynne book and I am loving it. I love the writing and cannot wait to read his other series. 

I had no idea going in that it was a historical fantasy, so I've been stopping to do some research while reading and learn a little more about the lore. 

I still have a lot of book to finish, but the highlight of the book for me so far is the characters. One of whom feels so real and personal I had to do more research only to find out the charcter was indeed very personal. 

I haven't had a ton of time to read the last few weeks. The weather has been so beautiful and I find it very hard to concentrate on my books at the moment. 

But I am finally making some progress on The Gate of the Feral Gods by Matt Dinniman. It is a great time, as expected. 

Question: 

If you're still here and you're a John Gwynne fan, would you recommend reading The Faithful and the Fallen or The Bloodsworn Trilogy next?

Happy Threshing Day Dragon Riders. To you. Not m Happy Threshing Day Dragon Riders. 

To you. Not me.

I would never have made it across the parapet. I have tripped and fallen from a standing position. 

I am patiently waiting for Threshing Day to come in from the library and and avoiding all spoilers. 

QOTD: how far into Fourth Wing would you survive?

Books I wish I could let hurt me again for the fir Books I wish I could let hurt me again for the first time. 

I love trauma bonding over books. 

What is a book that left you staring at the wall or crying uncontrollably? 

I put the entire Emma M Lion series on here because I don't think you should go in knowing which ones hurt. It's mostly a happy/ uplifting/ whimsical series, but there were definitely parts that broke my heart.
