Books I hope Santa Brings/Bookish Wishes
Santa is ME lol…or gift cards. I think it’s funny how everyone around me knows I read a lot of books, but only one of my besties – the one that reads, gives me a gift card for books. 🤣 I’m so grateful she knows what I like!
The Demon and the Light by. Axie Oh – so I have the Fairyloot version of the first book and I want the Fairyloot version of this one so they can match! But I don’t want to spend that kind of money right now.
Starchaser by. R.M. Gray – I have book one, so I want to get this one for my shelf but maybe waiting for it to show up on Book Outlet.
Silvercloak by. L.K. Steven – I liked this one a lot, wanted the Fairyloot edition and missed out on it. So I’m just waiting to get it when the price goes down or it’s on Book Outlet.

Books With a Winter Vibe
I was trying to pick book covers that I didn’t use to my Holiday Romances TTT last week, but that was hard so I’m going with Books with a Winter Vibe since it’s easier.

This week’s topic is:
Books I Enjoyed that Were Outside My Comfort Zone
(or books you’d like to read that are outside your comfort zone!)
Middle of the Night by. Riley Sager – I kept seeing this author’s book around and I finally read one and did enjoy it. Will definitely try out more of his books.
Hekate: The Witch by. Nikita Gill – I really enjoyed this book and I didn’t think I would because it is written like poetry with some paragraphs for other chapters. So I didn’t think I’d like it because I don’t usually read poetry.
Alchemised by. SenLinYu – this is a long book and super hyped so I am intimidated by it a little. I’m not afraid of how long it is but I was just afraid I’d be disappointed because the hype is so strong.
Coldwire by. Chloe Gong– I love Chloe Gong but Sci-Fi isn’t a genre I usually pick up so I was hesitant going into this one and I enjoyed it – even though there was a lot of tech words to process. 😅
Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by. Kylie Lee Baker – I love this author and have read all her books and I thought this was so different in what I’ve read from her before (fantasy). So Bat Eater is horror and out of my element but I loved it.
Katabasis by. R.F. Kuang – it’s VERY academic and I had to process a lot of information but I enjoyed it a lot.
Coffin Moon by. Keith Rosson – it’s horror (and I don’t do a lot of horror) and the villain is a psychopath but the heroes in this story had such an amazing story, I loved this book.
