It’s Friday 🎉 Besides being very glad the weekend is here, I’m still reflecting on my latest read. Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams, a novel with dry British humor and lots of growing-up drama, and was immensely popular a couple years ago. Headstrong and though some parts were difficult, it was a fantastic read ✨ ———

Hope you’re all having a great week so far! I spent some time finishing a very spooky novella with one of the spookiest covers I’ve ever seen 😅 Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw was definitely one of the strangest horror books I’ve read recently✨ ———

I decided to set my reading goal to 54 books for 2022! 🎉 Wish me luck, ya’ll. Anyways, my first finished read of the year was gifted to me - Black Swans by Eve Babitz. I’ve been wanting to read something by her for a long time, and I finally got the chance. Babitz was a socialite, writer, album-cover designing artist in LA during the later-half of the 20th century ✨

I finished my reading goal of 52 books! 🥳 Less than what I read in 2020, but my circumstances were different. I’m still proud of myself for sticking to my goal I made at the beginning of the year ✨ I hope you’ve all read books that made you feel happy and content this past year ✨

It’s almost the end of the year - I still have my little Xmas tree up and I’m so close to finishing my Goodreads Challenge goal 🎉 But here’s hoping… The read that brought me one step closer this week is I Love You But I’ve Chosen Darkness by Claire Vaye Watkins ✨

I borrowed a surprising book this week, In Five Years by Rebecca Serle. This one is definitely different, and nothing I expected ✨🎄
