A shared book blog by two friends ⭑.ᐟ book recs • reviews • random stuff ‧₊˚🖇️✩ ₊˚📖

[azlibrary816]

Welcome to our blog! ♡

This blog was created as part of an English class NLT project, where we were asked to design and run a blog. We decided to create a shared book blog, because reading and talking about books is something we both genuinely enjoy (and honestly, it felt like the most us choice).

Here, we’ll be posting:

• book reviews and recommendations

• booktok-inspired reads and trends

• quotes, thoughts, and reflections on stories we love

• occasional reading updates and opinions

• random silly stuff as well

Our goal is to use this space to practice writing, share ideas, and explore how literature connects to people beyond the classroom. While this blog is for a school project, it’s also a place where we can be creative and talk about books in a fun, relaxed way.

Thank you for being here and reading along with us ♡

we hope you enjoy this little bookish corner of the internet

Hello everyone,

I’m admin two, Asmara ♡

I’ll be the one writing in Red (or this), so if you see that color… yes, that’s me (｡˘︶˘｡)❤️

I’m a minor, and even though school gives a lot of work and tries to throw me into a reading slump, I still read whenever I can ( •̀ ω •́ )✧. I’m usually either watching movies, reading, or spending my money on books (no regrets, money comes back, special editions don’t)

I love fantasy and romantasy stories, especially ones with strong female leads and beautiful worlds ✨ My favorite series ever is Once Upon a Broken Heart, and I’m currently reading Fearless by Lauren Robert, and I either finish a book in 4 hours or in 1 month, there is no in-between (⌐■_■)

Random but important facts about me:

• favorite artist: Lana Del Rey 🎧

• favorite colors: black & burgundy red 🖤🥀

• favorite desserts: red velvet cheesecake & brownies 🍰

• hobbies: watching movies, reading, and buying books (´∀｀)

I’m really excited to be sharing this blog with you all and posting lots of bookish things ♡

Happy reading! (´｡• ᵕ •｡`)

The Best Spokesperson for Our Blog Would Be Hermione Granger

hello I am admin 2

The best spokesperson for our blog would definitely be Hermione Granger from Harry Potter because she literally gives the perfect BookTok vibe. She is obsessed with books, loves learning new things and is always the smartest person in the room. That totally matches our blog theme.

Hermione is also really hardworking and confident. Even when people doubt her, she always proves them wrong. A lot of readers and students relate to her because she shows that being smart is actually cool. She is also loyal, brave and always there for her friends, which makes her even more iconic.

Overall, Hermione would be the perfect face of our blog because she represents books, creativity and intelligence.........

[azlibrary816]

Our favorite 3 quotes are...

The Ballad of never after: "There is nothing of equal value to me"

The Cruel Prince:“If I cannot be better than them, I will become so much worse.”

Powerless: "I chained you to me. What do you think ?"

[azlibrary816]

Hello, I am admin 2

If we could change one thing about BookTok, it would be how quickly we judge books without even finishing them........

BookTok can be really quick to judge books without even finishing them, and just as quick to accuse authors of “copying” when they’re really just using the same trope. It’s easy to watch a few clips or read one chapter and decide “not worth it” (¬_¬), but stories aren’t meant to be summed up in 30 seconds. A slow start or a familiar setup doesn’t automatically mean a book is bad or unoriginal, sometimes it’s just building something deeper.

And the whole “this is a copy” thing… most of the time it’s just the same trope done differently. Tropes exist because readers love them, like enemies to lovers, morally grey men, or found family. Two books can feel similar at first but still go in completely different directions. Calling it copying right away kind of ignores the creativity that comes later.

When we judge too fast, we miss out on character growth, plot twists, and those moments that actually make the story hit (╥﹏╥). Taking the time to fully experience a book gives it a fair chance, and honestly makes reading feel more meaningful instead of just another quick opinion to post.....

If we could meet anyone, it would be…

Hiii guys,I am admin 2

The fictional character I would like to meet is Jacks, the Prince of Hearts from Once Upon a Broken Heart.

He is my kind of favorite in fantasy—mysterious, charming, and a little dangerous 

 I love characters like him who aren’t completely good but still have a soft side deep down. It makes him more interesting and real.

I would like to meet him because I want to see if he’s actually as heartless as people say, or if there’s something more behind it

hiya everyone it’s me admin one (˶˃𐃷˂˶)

today I’ll be talking about…

Top 5 common reading myths!

let’s get started!

• “you have to finish every book you start”

no you don’t (☉__☉) life is too short to suffer through a book you hate. if it’s boring you, confusing you, or even just not your vibe, close it. It’s always okay to dnf a book!!

• “reading has to be educational to count”

who said that?? reading for fun is still very much reading! whether it’s fantasy, romance, mystery, or even fanfiction, it all counts ^^ you don’t need to read something “educational” all the time?

• “fast readers are better readers”

absolutely not. some people read fast, some people take their time (like me 🥹). it doesn’t mean anything about how smart you are so don’t feel bad about yourself if you read slow ^^

• “audiobooks don’t count as reading”

they literally do. Well at least I count them as reading. Because you’re still experiencing the story, just in a different way. let people enjoy things.

• “if you don’t like a popular book, something’s wrong with you”

nope! not every book is for everyone. you’re allowed to dislike hyped books without explaining yourself like you’re in court. (And to be honest..most hyped ‘booktok’ book these days are just..not it 💔 atleast for me)

Thank you for reading!

Why it’s important to find your favorite genre -admin two ❤️

(This post is shorter than usual! A mini post :>)

When I was younger, I kept picking the wrong books 😭 like self-help, random “recommended” reads, or whatever people said was good. Because of that, I honestly thought I just hated reading. It always felt boring, forced, and lowkey painful. I’d start a book, get bored after a few pages, and never finish it.

Then I found my genre 🥹

I’m a romantasy girl forever, while my friend Zara (Admin 1) is obsessed with mystery. That’s the thing, everyone is different! I don’t really enjoy mystery, but she can read it for hours and never get tired. My favorite author is Stephanie Garber and hers is Jennifer Lynn Barnes...

Once I figured out the kinds of stories I actually enjoy, reading stopped feeling like a chore and started feeling like an escape. It became my comfort place when life gets stressful or when I just want to disappear into another world for a while. I actually started finishing books, getting excited for new releases, and talking about books with my friends ^^

Finding your genre (or even just one author you love) really matters, because the right book won’t just make you read more. It can completely change how you see reading. Something you used to avoid can turn into something you genuinely love, and that’s one of the best feelings ever!

[azlibrary816]

Hi everyone it’s me admin one!

Today I’ll be talking about…books i’d love to see in the future!

this is me publicly begging authors for more content because i am not emotionally done T^T

• another caraval book about julian & scarlett

my babies. my emotional support couple. no offense to dante and tella, love you guys, but you got TWO whole books. share the spotlight. julian and scarlett deserve one more story. just one. as a treat.

Pls Stephanie Garber i am asking politely.

• more evangeline & jacks content (ouabh universe)

yes i KNOW we’re getting a novella. yes i WILL read it in one sitting. no it will NOT be enough.

their dynamic?? the tension?? the drama?? the “will they ruin each other or save each other” energy?? unmatched.

we need bonus scenes. alternate povs (I need more Jacks pov) domestic moments. more chaos. more yearning. everything. Also I wish we also had a novella on chaos and Lala! I absolutely adore them!

• a new the naturals book

i miss cassie. i miss the team. i miss those terrifying “you” chapters. i miss the insane plot twists and trying to solve everything alongside them like i’m suddenly an FBI profiler too.

all my prayers are directed toward Jennifer Lynn Barnes

until then i will be rereading and pretending there’s a secret extra book hidden somewhere. 😞

Thank you for reading!

hello everyone! It’s me admin one!

Today I’ll be talking about….

my top 4 books of all time ♡

this list was way harder to make than it needed to be 💔 but these books own my soul, so here you go! (╥﹏╥)

• the inheritance games

First of all, I just wanna say I LOVE this series so much. Like, this book series straight up owns my soul. The mystery element is everything, especially Tobias and the big question of why he gave Avery all his inheritance. It’s also super fast-paced, which made it impossible to put down.

The Hawthorne brothers are absolutely insane (and rich 💸) in the best way, and Grayson Hawthorne is… yeah. Need I say more? 🥹

My favorite character is obviously Grayson, duh, and Libby!! She is SO underrated (•̀_•́)

• maze runner

Pure chaos. Fast-paced, stressful, and I was lowkey confused the entire time 😭 but I loved it anyway. And OMG, I was genuinely shocked by how different it was from the movie. Like, what do you mean Thomas and Teresa can talk telepathically??? Huh???

Though I’ve only read the first book in series! I wish to read the rest in the future

Also… Newt 🥹🥹🥹 I love Newt. That’s it. That’s the sentence. We Stan newt (and newtmas)

• the naturals

Okay, this book actually changed my life 🥹✌️ I used to think it was kinda boring, so I put it on hold for the longest time. But when I finally read it? Oh my god. Something in my brain rewired

I LOVE trying to solve the cases alongside Cassie and the others (I’m always wrong, miserably ). And the plot twist in the first book??? I DID NOT see that coming. Like at all (ಠ_ಠ). (Also the you chapters were terrifying)

After finishing the first book, I immediately read the rest, and now I’m sad because it’s over 😢I love my profilers, Cassie and Dean!! And my baby Sloane, she is criminally underrated (╯︵╰) also veronica sterling??

• percy jackson & the olympians

Okay first of all, this series raised me. Like everybody grew up reading Harry Potter but nah I read Percy Jackson. Like actually. Percy Jackson is my childhood and it also was my personality trait at one point in life 😭✌️

I love how funny these books are while still being emotional and intense at the same time, my favorite book in the series was the battle of labyrinth! I also have read hero’s of Olympus!

I think you can tell by now I adore the found family trope. (This book was the reason of my Greek mythology phase) Percy is hands down one of the best main characters ever, Annabeth is literally everything (brain + bravery combo goes crazy), but personally my favorite is Nico!

Me personally I’m cabin 15 😴 I’d love to know what cabin you guys are in! Tell me in comments ^^

This series will forever have my heart (ಥ﹏ಥ)

Thank you for reading!

Xoxo
