I spent a large part of my Sunday in bed with The Road to Tender Hearts by Annie Hartnett. I did not expect that I’d binge and finish this book today, but it happened and I loved it. It’s so so messy, definitely darkly humorous, outlandish and slightly ridiculous, but also incredibly heartwarming and hopeful. Traveling across the country with PJ, Sophie, Ollie, Luna and Pancakes was such a ride and I had a great time with them! 💜

I’ll be spending some part of my Sunday night in bed reading The Unbroken by C. L. Clark. This is my next buddy read with Becky and it’s been an interesting beginning so far! I think I had very different thoughts on the writing style, so I’m happy to say that it’s pretty easily readable. I’m very curious to see how the story evolves!

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed reading Swordheart by T. Kingfisher. I’ve actually got a few reads going on at the minute, but I’ve taken to reading this before bed every night for the past week. I’m not speeding through it, but enjoying it immensely when I read it. Halla and Sarkis have such great banter! 🤭

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed finishing the final two short stories in the Magic & Mystery Collection. The sixth book is Battle of the Round House by Tananarive Due, an author that I’ve been keen to check out. The final book in the collection is The Cairndale Orphan by J. M. Miro. I don’t think I’ve heard of Miro before, but I’m keen to give them a read.

I’ll be spending my Sunday night in bed with Paladin’s Faith by T. Kingfisher. This is the last book in the Saints of Steel series (so far?) but after very quickly finishing the third book, we decided to power through the last one so we can complete the series. I haven’t been reading much, but I’m enjoying what I have read so far with Kingfisher’s classic witty characters, charming interactions, and cosiness!

Also, I think this cover might be my favourite of the lot. It’s so pretty (especially irl)! 😍

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed reading The Fury of the Gods by John Gwynne. This is the third and final book of the trilogy, and Becky and I are eating it up. It’s been intense right from the go in this final book, and it’s been really fun discussing theories and feelings as we read. We have a lot of feelings about certain characters! 😂 This truly an epic series.

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed with A Fire Endless by Rebecca Ross. It’s the second book in her Elements of Cadence duology, and I’m excited to dive back in as Chris and I continue this buddy read! I have a feeling this finale is going to be fairly angsty and painful, lol. 🫣

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed reading How to Fake It in Society by KJ Charles. This is one of the books that kept my attention (@47%) and even though it’s a bit slow-going, I find it sweet and entertaining. I feel like Titus is a much softer MC and Nico a bit more cynical/jaded than I’m used to seeing in her books, but I’m enjoying their dynamic a lot.

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed with The Enchanted Greenhouse by Sarah Beth Durst. I’m buddy reading this with Charlotte and so far, both of us are enjoying more than the first book. The FMC is much less frustrating with her endless list of questions and inner monologue. 🤭

I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed finishing Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy.

I think I’ve got about 15% left in the book but I’ve been completely sucked in and I even got teary-eyed a few times. It’s definitely an incredibly slow burn, but it is also so highly atmospheric and beautifully sad. I love how mother nature and everything on this island feels so much like a character of its own. It’s not gonna be for everyone—especially if you don’t like slow, drip-fed, atmospheric mysteries (with a lot of miscommunication, lol) but I totally get the hype!
