ooh you're reminding me that Kim Fu's book was on my tbr last year!
Appreciate your honesty and interesting to hear the personal connection you felt with Piranesi. Great to hear your thoughts on these. Happy New Year, my friend!

Thank you! You too!
Your channel name very much sums up my relationship with reading 😂
I finally read Diviners (and book two & three) last year and twas PLEASANTLY surprised... ! It wasn't what I always thought it was and I ate them UP! I didn't love the third one as much as the first two though so now I'm nervous about the final book... eep!

It’s been a minute since I’ve watched your channel, once you said you were leaving. I’m glad you’re back! Your 2023 didn’t sound great, and I’m wishing for a fantastic 2024 for you!

Thank you ❤❤❤
here's to a good reading year in 2024!
the first five seconds of this video sums up 2023 for me LOL cheers to a new year!
I also read less than I planned in 2023 but I'm not too hard on myself because I had CAPE unit 2 on the 1st half of the year and my first semester of university in the 2nd half. Happy New Year!!

Yessss I love the diviners series 🥹
I only hit 14 books this year but you’re right, there are worse things!!
Your 4 and 5 are on my TBR, so its good toi see them in a beat books list I read The Diviners ages ago, but unlike you, I didn't carry on with the series. This is a great reminder for me to finish the series. Best wishes for 2024.
