I’ll be spending my Sunday in bed reading A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab. I first read this in 2017(?) and haven’t re-read it since and when Becky said she was also planning to re-read it I immediately jumped on! I was worried I wouldn’t enjoy it as much as the first time but so far, so good. I love Schwab’s writing! 😍 I’m not the best buddy-reader at the moment with work and Zelda keeping me occupied—sorry, Becky!—but this book makes me want to disappear into reading!

I’ll be spending my Sunday evening in bed reading Thorn by Intisar Khanani. I’m glad I’m finally reading this as it’s been on my TBR for ages, plus it’s also one of my 12 Book Challenge recommendations (from Julie)! I’m buddy-reading this with Leslie and we’re both enjoying it so far. It’s more slice-of-life than I expected but it’s a nice change of pace from my previous grimdark fantasy read, lol.

I’ll be spending my Sunday evening in bed reading The Burning God by R.F. Kuang. I’m a little behind on my buddy read because I haven’t been reading for the last… few days. I’m at 36% and everyone else is past 50% so… Much reading to catch up on! 😅

Today I’m going to try spending a teeny tiny part of my Sunday reading The Burning God by R.F. Kuang. This is the final book in the trilogy and so the final book in the group buddy read—it’s been so fun to have people to talk to about this series cos it’s ✨intense!

Today I’m spending a very minuscule part of my Sunday in bed reading How to Win a Breakup by Farah Heron.

I’ve been meaning to read this author’s books for a while and I have two or three of her YA contemporary romances on my TBR. I started this quite a while back but since I wasn’t sure what to pick up next, I decided to go back to this and hopefully, I’ll finish it soon!

I spent my Sunday reading The Ashes & the Star Cursed King by Carissa Broadbent. This is the second book of the Nightborn Duet and I’m looking forward to seeing how this ends. It’s a chonky bub but I’m close to 50% now and I plan to finish it by tomorrow (maybe, lol). I hope it’s a satisfying ending!

I’ve got a few reads going on this Sunday and I’ve been (kinda) rotating them all day:

  • The Dragon Republic43% → Reading w/ Julie, Chris and Joanna → It’s super dark, emotional, intense, and terrifying, lol. I’m so glad I’m reading it with these three cos it’s been a ride and we’re not even halfway through!
  • First Meet Foul64% → I started this morning and I can’t stop reading it. it’s so good! the angsty pining. the sexual and romantic tension. his anxious grump and her sassy sunshine. 🥹 I love Lo and Luca sooo much! I’ll be finishing this tonight.
  • The Serpent and the Wings of Night15% → This has been sitting on my Kindle library for a couple of weeks now but Jordyn’s review convinced me to pick it up ASAP. This also fits the first side quest for the Magical Readathon so it’s perfect! I’m really enjoying it so far.

Wilderlore: The Accidental Apprentice
by Amanda Foody
Progress: 33%

I started this last night but I’m (probably) going to put it aside until I finish Dragon Republic and I think it’ll be much needed too, lol. This is a little heartbreaking but it’s also very cute!

Dragon Republic
by R. F. Kuang
Progress: 1%

I’m just starting this but I’m gearing myself up to get my heart broke cos let’s be real, Kaung excels at making things tense and shattering feels ! 😂

I’m spending the rest of my Sunday in bed with Untethered Sky by Fonda Lee. I meant to read this much earlier than now since the pub day is just around the corner; however, I think if I had read it earlier it would’ve been a horrible reading experience as my brain was just. Not. There. Hopefully, I can get my review up for this tomorrow if not the morning of pub day!

📖 SYNOPSIS

From World Fantasy Award-winning author Fonda Lee comes Untethered Sky , an epic fantasy fable about the pursuit of obsession at all costs.

A Most Anticipated in 2023 Pick for Polygon | Book Riot | Paste Magazine


Ester’s family was torn apart when a manticore killed her mother and baby brother, leaving her with nothing but her father’s painful silence and a single, overwhelming need to kill the monsters that took her family.

Ester’s path leads her to the King’s Royal Mews, where the giant rocs of legend are flown to hunt manticores by their brave and dedicated ruhkers. Paired with a fledgling roc named Zahra, Ester finds purpose and acclaim by devoting herself to a calling that demands absolute sacrifice and a creature that will never return her love. The terrifying partnership between woman and roc leads Ester not only on the empire’s most dangerous manticore hunt, but on a journey of perseverance and acceptance.
