books made of magic, fairytales, poems and love

Favorite books of 2024. I love them so much.

I'm dying to read books with the love of my life in total silence with our feet tangled up.

Wow... It's 7 am... I don't think I needed this.

If zombies were real, you wouldn't first be warned by the approaching horde by their smell, by their groans, not even a cloud of smoke of the dust they raise coming closer from the horizon. It would be the flies. Hordes and hordes of insects, corpse-flies laying eggs on the carcasses of people who still walk, eating the eyeballs from their sockets, climbing across their unfeeling leathery skin. And the buzzing. The inescapable, deafening buzzing. Everywhere. Like you did not just kick a hornet's nest, but the very ground you walk on was a hornet nest, and each step caused another explosion of insects.

Insects, corpse flies, the buzzing. Their swarms blacken the skies, more horrifying than their migrating meals. The deafening cacophony of constant buzzing, the horrid noise of the living who feast on the dead who feast on the living. The buzzing.

The endless, inescapable buzzing.

Hello please reblog this if you’re okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better

“Buying books is immensely comforting. Maybe I won’t read them immediately, but they make me feel so much better whenever I’m sad and blue. Just their presence, it’s like having more to look forward to.”

Share your book wishlist for Xmas!!

The elven days of christmas, A.K. Caggiano

Summary:

Piper MacLean’s Christmas is a ho-ho-horror show, but she’s used to all that by now, five years into becoming the de facto matriarch of the family, if still single and childless much to everyone else’s chagrin. But she does have one indulgence every year: finding the perfect Christmas tree.

While searching the national forest, Piper is led to a beautiful spruce by way of magic. Well, not actual magic—magic, of course, doesn’t exist—but it sure feels magical when she hears the voice of her deceased mother floating on the wintery winds, telling her just which tree to chop.

Unfortunately, that very tree actually is quite magical, and accounting for it is the last task that half-elf Kol needs to complete before turning in his annual reports to the Elven Perennial Association. When he discovers the pilfered spruce, he simultaneously finds that the only way to return order to the forest is to endure a human holiday alongside a grumpy and overburdened woman who does not want him around.

Kol doesn’t belong in Piper’s world, but it’s her fault that he’s there, so he doesn’t intend to make things easy for her and announces to her family that he’s her boyfriend, come to visit for Christmas. Surely that’s the perfect cover for his presence and not at all the start to a ridiculous romance that will either tie up both of their hearts in pristine bows or rip them apart forever.

Review:

I know it's not possible for another human to read someone's mind, but I swear AK somehow reads mine and then writes the most perfect books for me.

This book was a complete joy, both of the main characters are complex and very likeable and they just work so well together, I found myself straight up giggling and laughing at some many scenes, and of course the smut was absolute perfection.

Even if AK was trying to tell a silly christmas story, she also managed to bring in serious topics, like how complicated grief and misplaced guilt can affect us for years, and she did a wonderful job navigating that while keeping things heartwhelming, and soft, and festive.

I always adore the dinamics she creates with all of her characters, how different, and natural they feel and this book nailed it completely, exploring the chaotic ways families can be and yet how much we still cherish and love them within that chaos.

And always worth menitoning, how does she always comes up with the best chapter titles? Truly one of the best parts of her books, always.

This books is already on my list of comfort reads, and I'm sure I'm gonna find myself coming back to it when I need some cheering up.

y'know what i love? when a book makes you go "oh NO" out loud over and over 🤣

If you see this you are obligated to tell me your favorite book/series you've read this year (totally not using this as a way to get more book recs)

not allowed to say Harry Potter, but what was your book series obsession as a teen

mine was definitely Eragon

When I moved out my apartment was so fucking empty. The fact that I have furniture now still fucking shocks me. Like, I did that! OMG!

a study of comfort 🌿✨💀

If I'm ever locked in again I'll have something to do.

Perfect Sunday.

I can hear them judging me.
