Started this one due to the hold that was placed on it, so it has no renewals as of Oct 6th. Gonna try to see if I can finish it before then.
Tho this goes against what I have been trying to do for the sake of my ADHD and read only one book at a time! I guess the bright side is if I need a break from one book, I can go to another. Because I know sometimes I drag my feet on books if it feels like a lull to get through.
Who knows, maybe using this journal to keep track of things will help with that.
ANYWAY, so far this book gives me Vicar of Dibley vibes with four people in a lil English village meeting up to talk about murder and crime. It's already very funny. Looking forward to seeing where it goes. I'm already on ch 3!

book commentary 003 ☆ the mirror season
Sep. 20th, 2022 08:47 pmAs of this post, I am on ch 3 of the book. It's already more somber than the other two books I'm reading. But not in a bad way. Considering the subject matter, I'm glad the tone already feels right.
CW: this book has a plot about sexual assault so be warned

library book haul △ august 27th
Sep. 1st, 2022 10:44 pmDecided I would do this just for funsies. Here's a list of books I checked (and carried) out of the public library on Saturday, Aug 27th.
I genuinely meant to go in there for a few and ended up with two very full & heavy bags. So maybe I just shouldn't say that anymore because I always seem to jinx myself.
- The Prince and the Dressmaker (had to return before finishing)
- Maurice
-Made in Abyss vol.s 4, 5, 6 READ
- Ice Planet Barbarians
-Kiss & White Lily For My Dearest Girl vol.s 1 & 2 decided it wasn't my thing
-The Water Dragon's Bride vol.s 3 & 4 READ
- The Thursday Murder Club (had to return before finishing)
- Questland
- For the Wolf
-The Mirror Season OWN
- Toil & Trouble
- Pride & Prejudice
- Sense & Sensibility
- Write Away
- Words Are My Matter
- The King's Grave

A total: 30 books
This is the curse of having so many interests. I got too much I'm into and too much to read as a result. But I guess the good thing about that is never running out of stuff to read/watch/get into.
**UPDATED ON 12/22 - too many were not even started lol

As of posting this, I am on page 139 and my god IDK why this has been such a hard book to get through. The story isn't bad, the writing isn't bad. It's just been taking me 5ever to legit get through.
I'm so ready to be done with it already, fuck.
I have too many other books to read.
Also Hastings, stop thirsting after Mary. She doesn't give a fuck about you, and she's a bitch.
