We DID read Ana on the Edge and liked it! Definitely getting the cheesey vibes from most of the middle grade novels we've also read. Good to know thank you!



Please do not give me virtual hugs unless you are only using the hug function on threads. Thanks.


You can't always keep it separate.

I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.

You didn't come this far just to come this far.

Finished both of these and gave them both 5 stars. If anyone's looking for a belated Black History Month read, highly recommend both. (Apologies Camden, we have BHM in a different month over here!)

Now listening to Pet by Akwaeke Emezi.

I gave this 5 stars and regretted ever giving anything else 5 stars because this was truly something else.

Then I listened to The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar and gave it 5 stars because the regret above clearly did not last long.

Now I'm reading Open Grave by A.M. Peacock (because I know him irl!!!) and listening to Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi
