#Raven's TBR

March's TBR

So I accidentally read six books in February, so I might try to take it slower in March.

The plan is:

The Hobbit

The Fellowship of the Ring

The Two Towers

The Return of the King

The Silmarillion

These will all be re-reads, except for The Silmarillion, which I will only read if I have time at the end of the month. I'm not sure if I'm going to write a full review on them all because they are long and complex works, but I will at least do a rating review.

Once I'm gone

Once i'm gone, if you wish to know a little more about me, you may read the books i've left behind. In them you'll find all the lives i've lived and all the characters i've known. You may find my mind in the form of my annotations, you may find my heart in the form of all the characters i've loved, you may find my happiness in the form of all the adventures and feelings those books hold, and you may find me in there too, because those books made me who i am, taught me what i know and shaped me into the person you know.

So once i'm gone, look for me in my other lives, look for me in my books. You'll find me there, reliving all my adventures in the form of memory. Because i've left a little bit of myself in every book i've ever read and i created a little bit of who i am with each one of those books as well.

#please just ignore the smutt if you do read it #thanks #and a tip of mine is: if the tittle is the littlest bit questionable DO NOT i repeat DO NOT OPEN IT! #and DO NOT trust the covers #they can be very deceiving #here are some good series for you #boys of tommen #all for the game #caraval #a court of thorns and roses #the raven cycle #perfectly imperfect #heartstopper #and if you are my best friend read the Ice Planet Barbarians series #you'll LOVE IT #it's very interesting #:))) <3 #(ps: when you get the joke you better not piss on my grave for it kjdnkjadncj) #relax im NOT unalaving myself #just had an idea i thought would be fun and started writing #my tbr is way too long for unalaving

March TBR--

I'm hoping the month of March goes a little better for me reading wise. I felt like I got a decent amount read in February (while still sticking to my goals for the year) but a lot of it was so mid. I'm ready for any of these books to just grab me by the throat and keep me hooked. I have two rereads in preparation for new releases later this year. I also have two NetGalley ARCs and a hockey romance (because I've read one every month of the year so far, why not keep that going?).

The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah-- This is one of those books you hear about a ton on the bookish spaces of the internet and I decided it was finally time to see what all of the hype is about. In this one, we follow Loulie al-Nazari as she and her jinn bodyguard are forced to help the sultan find an ancient lamp that has the power to revive the barren land. There is a ton more in the synopsis, but like a lot of reviewers these days, I feel like synopses are starting to give too much away. I'm hoping for some City of Brass vibes and lots of adventure.

The Foxglove King by Hannah Whitten (Reread)-- I read this one a year ago and I'm excited to dive back into it before the next book comes out. In this one we follow Lore who escaped from a cult beneath the city of Dellaire over 10 years ago. Lore's job as a runner sustains her, but when a run goes wrong and her power is revealed she's forced to work for the Sainted King to find the person in his court responsible for the deaths of entire villages on the outskirts of the country. Thrust into the Sainted King's glittering court, Lore becomes tangled in politics, religion, and forbidden romance. This was my favorite book of January last year so I'm excited to reread.

The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu-- A first contact with aliens story that's been translated from the original (and set to be released as a Netflix show soon) and follows the outcome of a secret military project that sent signals into space to establish contact with aliens. Will the alien civilization on the brink of destruction be welcomed on Earth or will there be a fight against an invasion?

Teen Titans: Raven by Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo (Reread)-- Before the next in the graphic novel series comes out, I plan on doing a quick reread of this one. Number one in this series introduces us to Raven who is forced to move to New Orleans following the accident that takes her foster mother's life. But that accident has also taken her memory. Then strange things start happening. This is a fun series and I'm glad I get the chance to reread it.

No Coincidence by Rafat Kosik-- Translated from the original Polish, this is the first novel in the Cyberpunk 2077 series. Apparently, this series includes collected editions of limited series, standalone graphic novels, and also full length novels. There are four authors who have contributed to it. It is all based on the game Cyberpunk 2077. My understanding is that you can start in a few different places. I hope it's true. Let's talk about the actual book now. This one appealed to me because of the cover. But the synopsis really got me. A misfit group is forced to do a heist thanks to some good, old-fashioned blackmail. The gang includes a veteran turned renegade, a Militech sleeper agent, an amateur net runner, a corporate negotiator, a ripperdoc, and a techie. They must come together to pull off the deadly heist. Also...is this the third book in this TBR about people being forced to work for people above them??

Must Love Hockey by Sarina Bowen (Kindle)-- This short hockey romance follows a woman who has an allergic reaction at a hockey game and is rescued by an equipment manager whose name she doesn't manage to catch. I've read and enjoyed Sarina Bowen before so I'm hoping this is a fun and quick read.

The Dead Cat Tail Assassins by P. Djeli Clark (NetGalley)-- The Dead Cat Tail Assassins are not cats. Nor do they have tails. But they are most assuredly dead. Those sworn to the Matron of Assassins--resurrected, deadly, wiped of their memories--have only three unbreakable vows. First, the contract must be just. Second, even the most powerful assassin may only kill the contracted. Third, once you accept a job, you must carry it out. And if you stray? A final death would be a mercy. Eveen's newest mission brings her face-to-face with a past she isn't supposed to remember and a vow she can't forget.

Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes (NetGalley)-- When I tell you that I was squealing the day I found out I got access to this book, please, do picture it as a cute and dainty squeal instead of the insanity that actually unfolded. I loved Dead Silence from this author so when I saw they had a new space horror novel I HAD to try to get an ARC. Space exploration can be lonely and isolating. Psychologist Dr. Ophelia Bray is assigned to a small exploration crew and she is determined to make a difference. But as they begin establishing residency on an abandoned planet, it becomes clear that the crew is hiding something. Her crewmates are far more interested in investigating the eerie planet and unraveling the mystery behind the previous colonizer's hasty departure than opening up to her. That is, until their pilot is discovered gruesomely murdered. I cannot wait to read this one.

This TBR is giving me such a good feeling. There's Sci-Fi, there's Fantasy, there's Romance, there's Sci-Fi/Horror (a beloved genre pairing for me), there's a graphic novel. I'm just hoping March is such a good reading month. I kind of need it.

You can skip this rambling

So, heres the thing-

Every time i open pintrest or tumblr or any of this shit. There are fandoms.

Fandoms of books i have yet to read.

And then im filled with the inexplicable desire to read all those books but i really cant because-

a) If the books are proclaimed great by public opinion, i only want the paperbacks and not e-books and im fucking broke man

b) I’m currently simultaneously reading about 5 books 

I know that i have time and im not dying anytime soon(hopefully(?)) but that urge to read all of them is so so strong i have no clue what im supposed to do

#idk what the point of this post was #i just had to put this out there #but fr tho i really gotta get arount to completing my tbr pile #(somewhat) #so these are the books that somehow i havent gotten around to reading- #red white and royal blue #they both die at the end #a little life(really wanna get around to this one) #invisible life of addie larue #the book thief #american gods #mortal instruments #the raven cycle #one of us is lying #theres many more but i'll stop now #if you read this whole post tho #you've got a fuck lot of free time

GoodReads Synopsis:

In the little city of Flint, MI, the good die young and the people left standing are the grimiest of characters. With reign over the city's drug trade, Benjamin Atkins made sure that his precious daughter, Raven, was secluded from the grit that the city had to offer. But when Raven's young heart gets claimed by Mizan, a stick-up kid in search of a come-up, there's nothing Benjamin can do about losing her to the streets. She chooses love over loyalty and runs off with Mizan, but her new role as wifey soon proves to be more than she can handle. Puppy love always feels right, but things turn stale, and she soon finds that everyone she loves has disappeared. All she has is Mizan, but when hugs and kisses turn to bloody lips and black eyes, she realizes that Mizan is not who she thought he was.

My Review:

Raven is Winter Santiaga Ethic is Midnight. Mizan is Bullet.

The End.

(wasn't my cup of tea but wasn't that bad)

Final Thoughts: If you've read one 'beautiful, young daughter of a prominent drug lord' story, then you've read them all.
