Just finished reading A Man Made of Smoke by Alex North and wow, what a psychological thriller! 🌫️ This book delves deep into fear, grief, and memory. Who's ready to get spooked? Link in Bio

Books used to be my escape — now they’ve become my mirror.

I’ve noticed lately I can’t read fantasy or dark academia the way I used to. Life doesn’t feel fancy or free right now, and I can’t connect with worlds that feel too far from my own.

It’s funny how books reveal what’s going on inside us. The stories we reach for say something about where we are mentally, emotionally — even when we don’t want them to.

Sometimes books are the only place that feel like they understand us. They hold us when life feels too heavy. And for me, that’s been the biggest kind of support — from the stories I read, and from all of you here.

If your reading habits have changed lately, maybe it’s not about losing interest. Maybe it’s about reflection. Maybe you’re healing more than you realize. 💫

I’ve missed my #bookstafamily lately, so here’s a little life + reading update 💕

This month I read:
📖 The Girl’s a Killer
📖 A Man Made of Smoke
📖 The Orphanage by the Lake
📖 48 Clues into the Disappearance of My Sister
📖 Long Time Gone
📖 The Poet
…and I’m currently deep into The It Girl 👀

It’s been a fun start to fall 🍂 — crazy busy at work, soaking up every cozy moment with the kiddos, and finding time for a good book whenever I can.

Stay tuned — new reviews drop this weekend on so many great reads! 🔥
