Reading 1984 for the first time and I think I'm in way over my head. Took four days to read the foreword. 😨We'll see how this goes.

my friend's book comes out today!!

My Friend's Book Comes Out Today!!

[ID: a lavender book cover with two white women in Victorian gowns giving each other side glances and holding hands. The title reads "Don't Want You Like a Best Friend" and the author is "Emma R. Alban." end ID]

A swoon-worthy debut queer Victorian romance in which two debutantes distract themselves from having to seek husbands by setting up their widowed parents, and instead find their perfect match in each other—the lesbian Bridgerton/Parent Trap you never knew you needed!

I'm so proud of Emma!! If you like queer historical romance like The Queer Principles of Kit Webb, you should pick up this book.

Currently doing a full reread of Scum Villain's Self-Saving System, which means I have now read the first volume five times. Despite this, it still holds up—I still laugh at the parts I've found funny before, I still get anxious as LBH is forced into the Endless Abyss, I am still in love with the gorgeous illustrations by Velinxi.

I think I can confidently say that this is one of my favorite novels, which is wild because I don't actually enjoy the transmigration subgenre all that much. I highly prefer just straight-up fantasy worlds. And yet SVSSS has managed to capture my heart and has not let it go. I freaking love it. ٩(๑`^´๑)۶

Now, onto volume 2~!

I finally started my full read of MDZS yesterday! Thought it'd be a good series to start the new year with. I read all of volume 1 yesterday, and so it's onto volume 2 today... I'm not sure how I'm going to survive the heartbreak up ahead.

A new pair of earrings I got came with a note that said you should never wear earrings overnight and I laughed, but now I'm curious as to what people do so

for clarification: this is just a question trying to see what people's overall habits are when it comes to wearing earrings, so short removals for showering or swimming don't count. feel free to put in the tags how often you switch between pairs of earrings as well!

It will look something like this (and will be transparent with white outline on dark backgrounds):
