Yellow books were surprisingly not my least owned color, but barely. 🤏🏻
Surprising no one, I haven't read Ander & Santi or The Fae Keeper yet. I have an issue with leaving series unread because I put off reading finales unless I'm marathoning. Case in point: The Fae Keeper. I have no good reason for not reading it yet, but it's not the only one. I haven't finished The Dreamer Trilogy, The Aurora Cycle, the Willow Creek Ren Faire series, among others.
Do you put off reading finales?
Remember: whether you are out or not, know you are greatly loved and my account is a safe space. 🌈 Bigots can't and won't win.

Niektóre historie lepiej opowiadać po ciemku. Nie tylko te przerażające, w których ktoś jest ścigany między drzewami. Nie tylko takie, w których grupa podejrzanych jest uwięziona w domu. Także historie miłosne nabierają blasku, gdy zgaśnie światło.
Dhonielle Clayton, Tiffany D. Jackson, Nic Stone, Angie Thomas, Ashley Woodfolk, Nicola Yoon - “Blackout. Gdy zgasną światła”

Book Four of 2022!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Blackout by Angus Thomas, Ashley Woodfolk, Nicola Yoon, Dhonielle Clayton, Tiffany D Jackson and Nic Stone
A heatwave plunges New York City into darkness where sparks fly for thirteen teenagers.
Content Warnings: panic attacks and disorders, death of parent, grief, bullying, homophobia, cancer, death
What Did I Think?
This was just so wholesome, sweet and feel good. An absolute must read just for a pick me up in between more challenging reads for sure or even just to feel warm and hugged. I loved how it followed such a diverse cast of voices who all went down different paths and how they were all connected in some way and headed in the same direction. The only thing I’m upset about is that I fell in love with so many of the characters and I can’t get more of them!
Prompts:
This was added as a Popsugar prompt, “A Book With a Constellation on the Cover or in the Title”
I also added this to the 52 Book Challenge, “A Person of Colour as the Main Character”

What's a format/style of book you don't often read?
For me, it's books in verse. I honestly think Nothing Burns as Bright as You by Ashley Woodfolk is the only one I've come across. At least that I'm aware of. I wouldn't have even had this one on my radar if it weren't for @rainbowcrate.
Poetry is another style/genre of book I don't read much of. I own two poetry books, Runny Babbit by Shel Silverstein and Some Things I Still Can't Tell You by @mishacollins. The latter I really only bought because I adore Misha as both a human and an actor.
I quite enjoyed this one more than I thought I would. The verse format made it a rather quick read. It's about a tumultuous relationship between two high school girls. One seems to have stronger romantic feelings than the other, but we see the toxic roller coaster play out. I definitely think the ending was for the best, and I hope the MC is able to move on. If you're looking for a quick, sapphic book in verse, then look no further than Ashley Woodfolk's Nothing Burns as Bright as You.
