toffeeeeee, i saw the book ask game and!! i had to shdjdk. sorry if there's too many, you can answer however many you like ;-;
17, 25, 28, 42, 50, 55, 60, 63, 80, 94 and 135 !! (´-﹏-`;) hehe <3
Tumblr media
me when i saw how many numbers this ask had !! thank you so much ivy, i hope my recs deliver somehow ;n; (also this had me thinking harder than i did on an essay i just submitted HJSHA I LOVE IT)
book recs ask game!
#17 - a book with a yellow cover
men without women by haruki murakami, a short story collection about men with no bitches /j,, the stories aren't correlated to one another and i had no major takeaway but i enjoyed 1 story out of the 7 which was the independent organ (bc i related to the guy and it got pretty sad, i like that shit). this feels like a compilation of murakami's random thoughts, literal ideas out of nowhere and inherently hard to find any deeper meaning into it but maybe that's just my lack of analytical skill.
#25 - a book by your favourite author
unfortunately, i no longer have a favorite author but the last one i acknowledged was marie lu so... legend. prolly her most popular work but not my favorite. her writing has the ability to single-handedly bring me out of reading slumps and i think i read almost every book she wrote. got a few world-building, plot-twisting techniques from her too!!
#28 - a book you wish you could read as a beginner again
mentioned a thousand times atp, looking for alaska :'D by john green :'D the money i'd give just to reread that for the first time bc i have paragraphs of it memorized now HJSHA i think this sparked my love for angsty things
#42 - a book that made you want to scream by the time you got to the end
i had a different book for this at first until i remember this one read that was so bad i wanted to forget about it. never let this go by kazuo ishiguro. YES, the story had a serious topic in its undertone but i just couldn't appreciate it anymore with how much of a drag everything else was. it reads like one of those tiktok series vids that are like 'follow for part 2'. BITCH!! JUST GET ON WITH IT!! the number of times this book goes (not a spoiler, just a bad example) "i'll tell you why i burned the house down but first let me tell you about my friend's boyfriend" LIKE I CARE ABT THAT RN??? god just thinking abt it is making my blood boil
#50 - a book that made you cry a LOT
THERE IS ONLY ONE!!! HOUSE OF HADES BY RICK RIORDAN. i know, kinda hard to get to and i'm not even sure if this would make you cry. it had me bawling tho, tear-blurred vision as i waded to the last page. it was that bad. if you're looking for a tear-jerker that i know made others cry, a little life by hanya yanagihara.
#55 - a book with a satisfying ending
again, for me, it's a little life. there was something about how i finished that book that left me feeling relieved. not only bc it was one chonky ass book but bc i barely read things where the ending i want is the ending i actually get.
#60 - a book that you think about at 3am
things have gotten worse since we last spoke by eddie larocca. told in e-mail correspondence between two women, they have a 50 shades of grey-esque arrangement but it gets from 0 to 1000 so quick. i'm gonna step aside and let my review speak for itself.
Tumblr media
#63 - a book that actually made you laugh out loud
the blood of olympus by rick riordan, last book of the hoo series. sorry my tearjerker and biggest laugh are from the same middle-grade series. adult fiction doesn't draw much emotions from me (except maybe frustration), they just leave me mortified.
#80 - a book that reminds you of a loved one
norwegian wood by haruki murakami. a close friend recommended this to me and because he said the book mirrored his life, it's forever tied with him now. while the story in itself didn't appeal to me that much, i had fun pointing out which parts of the book and his life overlapped.
#94 - a book about grieving
on earth we're briefly gorgeous by ocean vuong. while the book doesn't explicitly state that it's about grieving, it reads like it is. it's almost as if the main character is grieving for a life he cannot have and mourning for people who are still alive.
#135 - recommend any book you like!
i think i recommended this before when i mentioned your writing reads like a murakami book HAHA after dark !!

heyy, I saw you were doing matchups so I was wondering if I could get an obey me one? Take your time if you can't write them now :D
I'm a bi ace demigirl who's 5'3 and my hair is around shoulder length currently (it used to be really short) and both my eyes and hair are dark brown, almost black. I'm underweight and my skin is like a light olive color. I dress a little masculine if I were to describe it, I love formal attires like suits of the kind :D
I am infp and my enneagram is 8 and I'm also a capricorn. I would say I'm rather loud and energetic, but at the same time, I get tired in social situations easily- Sometimes I get really honest, I don't have a filter when I speak, but I try to not sound so harsh or mean ;-; I get really talkative depending on the topic and how much I thought about it. I think a lot, makes me sleep late because I'm awake thinking about random things that most of the time does not correlate to one another. My brain is just scattered a lot of times which is also why I get distracted really easily mid conversation and I would be too embarrassed to admit it when I do- I also get days I get real quiet and won't speak much and it sometimes worry people, but it's really just me tired :'D I don't really know how to sympathize and it's hard to explain that, but yeah, I usually sound happy no matter the situation and it's not good depending on what's happening. My mood and the way I speak changes with different people, I would usually try to match their energy even if I don't feel the same cause I feel like that's a nice thing to do ;-;
Some interests I have is drawing, reading (ya novels, usually with romance), singing (I'm into kpop and a mixture of other genres) and sometimes I paint or write. I get bored really easily so these hobbies keep me from being worn out from doing nothing. Other things I like would be anime and musical theater and I love birds (idk if that's relevant but yes-) I have a few things I want to learn, rn it's law, criminology or psychology. Forgot to mention, but I also play a lot of visual novels and games (mainly bandori and genshin these days)
For love languages I am quality time and acts of service. Not planning to be in any relationship yet, but I just would like an s/o who can just understand why I'm who I am and would be able to tell me whenever I'm being too much- I've also never had an s/o so I'm not sure how I'd be like, but I think I'm pretty affectionate in terms of showing how I care. I'd definitely get into their interests because I know it'll make them feel happy. Also, if we ever argue, I would rather we not yell or shout since I've had bad experiences with those-
I'm pretty sure that's all I can say about myself,, I can't wait for an answer, thank you so much for reading this <3
omg thank you so much !! you're so sweet <3
sorry this took a bit longer than usual i was working on a fic thing post about dia x reader !!
okay as far ass the matchup, i match you with... SOLOMON
okay so here is my reasoning (it's kinda scattered and not in order of how you told me about yourself i'm sorry🥲🥲):
- he's SUPER intuitive and would know exactly when you're tired in a social situation and would use his crafty wizardry to get the two of you away
- he would know when to worry about you and when you're just tired :)
- he would totally rotate between your pronouns and ask if you felt more they/them that day or she/her and just respects you all around
- loves listening to you talk and your hyperfixations because he either would totally get into it too, or would just love to see how excited you are abt it
- also using his intuition, he'd understand you down to your cellular structure, like this man can read you like a book
- would so study law, criminology and phsycology with you because he finds it fascinating
- he'd also love it if you worked with him on potions and stuff
- i totally hc that solomon has a bird familiar and that matches how you like birds~ he would totally send you letters attached to the foot of his bird and call it "tweeting" just for fun
- this might not be the healthiest for your sleep schedule, but the two of you would stay up s o late talking about the randomest things that pop into either of your heads
- be prepared for the most magical dates, figuratively and literally
- you have full control over the aux, okay whatever you want this man loves your music
- he loves spending time with you and doing tiny things for you like how you do for him (DO NOT EAT HIS COOKING THO-)
- def would watch anime or musicals w you
- reading dates reading dates reading dates
- suddenly your schedules are identical and you have all your classes together🤨
- def not an excuse to "help you with your homework" as a way to spend time w you
- would keep anything you painted or wrote him
- hes lowkey clingy but shh only you know
- he loves taking you on dates but he also like nights in alone w you
- would maybe rope you into pranks
- please teach him how to cook properly
- overall the two of you would be a chaotic happy understanding duo
I HOPE I DID A GOOD JOB AND SORRY IT TOOK A WHILE BUT ENJOY YOUR MORNING/DAY/EVENING/NIGHT AND DRINK SOME WATER !! <3
- cas :)
