Short stories following the adventures of the monster killer Geralt of Rivia. Read it after watchib

I enjoyed it, but I almost felt like Sweetie was too perfect--Ashish was a good, kind person, but he also had some flaws which made him feel more real/natural, whereas Sweetie was presented as an almost perfect person which took me out of the experience. Plus, there were moments where Ashish's romantic feelings felt a bit too intense (as in, the way that Menon described it felt a bit sacchrine). Lastly, I wish Ashish's basketball issue (his lack of balltopia) had more time on the page since the only time it ends up really being mentioned is when they play HORSE and it turns into making out and then at the end when he finds balltopia again (although it's not clear if it was just a coincidence or what)

It wasn't my cup of tea, but I'm not sure if I can quantify why--perhaps it's because I felt the romance was a bit all over the place; as a reader I was rooting for Tian Bai, partially because it felt like that was who Li lan wanted to be with for a majority of the novel. Intellectually, I recognized/knew that Er Lang made more sense for Li lan, but I had not yet fully switched to rooting for Er Lang before the novel ended. The writing also at times felt a bit distanced (emotionally) but that was a smaller concern for me.

I learned when you eat sugar your body breaks it down into glucose. It spreads around your body and gives you energy

My favorite story was Down The Hill.

Last of the midnight series. Fun and smutty

Very thought provoking. Though published in the 90s many points hold true today and have become increasingly relevant as racial tensions rise in America. I marked so many interesting facts and thoughts I ended up buying my own copy to keep all my notes in haha

This book is about cats being pets through history. The ancient Egyptians especially liked cats. The cover had a cute kitten

Got hooked on the Tracy Crosswhite series this spring and I’ve just about finished all of them. We all knew there was something off about the domestic violence/self defense claim with the beginning case, that lady turned out to be a psycho :( The case of Kimi was so unbearable tragic. No spoilers but man...the reveal of how she died may be one of the more messed up murders in this detective series. Kimi did not deserve any of that!!!!

This book was both heartwarming and heartbreaking with a touch of humor. The book is about a kid’s mom, who gets deported one day while he’s at school. But just to add to the drama, he loses a friend, has to take care of his little siblings alone, and tries to be elected school president. It’s an amazing book, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has ever felt alone.
