i read four whole books during may, which, tbh, yay awesome unbelievable
* Lies Like Wildfire by Jennifer Lynn Alvarez - this book unlocked a whole new fear in me wow what a time to be alive. did i ever anticipate being scared of fucking wildfires? no. am i scared of wildfires now? yes omg. do i live in an area that is even remote prone to this? no but that’s completely irrelevant. i read this in one sitting, i sobbed when my favourite character died, it was a fun ol’ time, 15/10 recommend this if you want a quick read - 4/5 stars
* Contagion by Erin Bowman - reread because i am finally getting the sequel, it’s only been like 2 or 3 years, this is fine. still holding to my original review - this is how you write a horror in space - 5/5 stars
* The Hearts We Sold by Emily Lloyd-Jones - randomly found out Emily had more books out so i did what any normal human would do, i went and bought one of them, because she’s genuinely such a great writer. the ending to this book Annoyed™ me, but overall the concept was great and i always love standalone books with fantasy elements - 4/5 stars
* The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James - sgaskjgdalsjgdkasgdaskgd i love when i stumble into AMAZING thrillers, boy do i feel alive. Stephen King vibes, creepy as hell, atmospheric and posing some great moral questions, this books was IT. Pick it up pick it up pick it upppppp - 5/5 stars
june is the month where i am doing my first dive into nonfiction, fun times await, because reading nonfiction makes me feel dumb if i don’t Understand Things
