Hey book friends 🥰 I see a ton of new mutuals today from the other place so some really helpful things to help you find more book peeps here:

- Using 💙📚 will put your post on the Book Sky feed.
- #booksky is a pretty popular tag and I think I've seen a few #literaturesky tags as well.

So far, its definitely got my attention which is good. I forgot how much I missed plots that involved ships and voyages 🏴‍☠️

I haven't read notes from a small island yet. But sounds like you've got an excellent collection!!

I've thought about this so much, and I feel like I would only be happy with an animation. Everything else just feels like a risk.

The bells. The bells would have to be done perfectly.

Crawled into my brain and permanently resides there. I think about the levels of death CONSTANTLY.

I see the name Touchstone, I only think of Garth Nix and Sabriel.

You can definitely keep going with the mixed golds that you have! Maybe add in some gold frames that have designs on them. Or maybe a white frame with a gold sheet of paper inside!

Just saw the Morgan Wallen news. I'll pour one out for you ☹️

Mine is still a work on progress, I slowly add to it as I find a new item. I work on different sizes, colors and textures (when I get home if i can remember I'll take a pic of it fully) but here it is in the background

Book mail from Entangled Publishing 💜 Thank you thank you!

A finished copy of Over the Moon by Laura Pavlov. The summary looks like it is a small town, hockey romance!

ALSO ALSO. They didn't IMMEDIATELY trade ilys after the first chapter. That was a nice change.

Beca Dreadful🌙🐈‍⬛✨ @becadreads.bsky.social · 8h

Also the cast of characters was FAR more diverse in this book (and potentially the following books) than the previous ones.

FINALLY I LOVED THE MESSAGE THE OVERALL BOOK GAVE. That romance books are important too and they're not all relegated to a shelf titled "trashy porn".

Romance books shine light on happiness, love and hope and we really need that these days to survive 🙂‍↕️

Another thing I loved, I was never in a sorority but I cringe when I find books openly bashing them and pitting the sisters against each other. This was nice to see her sisters having her back and openly supporting her choices and career.

Beca Dreadful🌙🐈‍⬛✨ @becadreads.bsky.social · 8h

It was still a little cheesy but not AS cheesy as the previous ones. Like I said, the pet name he used for her made me sink into the earth.

4.5 stars.

Potentially my favorite out of the series for a variety of reasons. #1 I saw myself and resonated hard with the FMC.

The plot felt like it had a lot more depth especially being set in college and surprised me on a few occasions when it didn't follow the route all the other books had.

The FMC is Hispanic, loves romance novels AND THERE IS A BABY DONKEY.

I hope this one is my favorite 🥹
