    The part where you said “Kayla you’re life is so thrilling” I cackled because I go through this thought process daily but honestly I’m watching this in my house looking like a gremlin, so I love vlogs with people living as they normally would. It feels cozy and like body doubling

    How to identify a cozy book of any genre: How many times did they mention tea, coffee, or baked goods of any kind. Less than 3 = not cozy, More than 3 = probably, At least 7 = something by Travis Baldree.

    Happy Birthday Kayla! 🎉 Please make an appt with an allergist and get tested. You don't want to be caught off guard in the future in case you need to keep Benadryl or an Epi- Pen with you at all times. Many ppl develop allergies unexpectedly later in life. At any time your type of reactions can change so it's good to be prepared😊

    I absolutely loved Fourth Wing and Iron Flame so it was cool to hear Rob's thoughts on them. Originally Iron Flame was supposed to be split into 2 books, but the publishers wanted it as 1 and said they would just split it into Part 1 and Part 2 which is why it is as long as it is.

Glad Rob liked Fourth wing. I enjoyed the beginning and the end but like the carrot cake hated the middle. Happy birthday 🎂🥳

    Sometimes whole grains can cause hives, not just nuts; my dad is allergic to whole wheat, and just like you it takes a couple of hours to start and goes away with benadryl... so maybe the oat, or a type of flour in the "butters"...

    I read Little Blue last year and thought it was a really unique way to tell the story, but I think that sometimes detracts a little from the Vivian/Zelda story. Still, I gave it a 4! I just finished Hazel Jane Plante's second novel and it also has a slightly unconventional format - I'm not a literary fiction reader typically but I really enjoyed it!

Also Kayla: At this point, I'm hate reading this 😂😂😂 Also also, I dnf-ed That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon at about 50% because I found it to be really shallow and uninteresting. And, like many fantasy romance books and other romance subgenres, I found it to be more of a lust-ance than a romance, which just isn't to my taste and I am sad that that it is a current trend in romance 😑
