Book Review: Soon By You by Dahliaย Adler 3 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC! Soon By You is scheduled for release on May 19, 2026. The Preamble: Soon By You wasn't my first Dahlia Adler book. I read one of her older books last year and enjoyed it, so when I saw this one on NetGalley, I figured it would be a good time!

Book Review: Mad Mabel by Sallyย Hepworth 5 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance listening copy of this book! Mad Mabel is set to release on April 21, 2026. My Thoughts: I had no idea what I was getting into when I started this book. Truly, I saw it on NetGalley, thought the premise sounded interesting and different, and dove right in when I was approved!

Canadaโ€™s just getting destroyed and bullied and beaten over and over these past few years like wtf did we do to deserve this?? Be nice and respectful? Not elect a monster? Jfc

Man, Iโ€™m kinda with the panelโ€ฆ

A gold medal hockey game shouldnโ€™t be on the same day as the closing ceremonies so we can do 5 on 5 OT until the game is properly decided ๐Ÿค

Book Review: The Miseducation of Caroline Bingley by Lindzย McLeod 3.5 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC! The Miseducation of Caroline Bingley is scheduled for release on May 5, 2026! The Preamble: Last year, I read Lindz McLeod's first Pride and Prejudice-inspired novel, The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet, during my Jane Austen (and inspired works) era and enjoyed it! A sapphic interpretation of an Austen story, or at least Austen characters, is a hit with me almost 100% of the time.

Meaning people who watch the Mikeโ€™s Mic Gossip Girl recaps and have unwillingly adopted the vocal stim of โ€œElizabeth Hurleyโ€ (sung like Taylor Swiftโ€™s Elizabeth Taylor) to the point where they want to remove their own vocal cords

Book Review: Ms. Mebel Goes Back to the Chopping Block by Jesse Q.ย Sutanto 3 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC! Ms. Mebel Goes Back to the Chopping Block is due out on April 28, 2026. The Preamble: My first Jesse Q. Sutanto read was a Netgalley-provided ARC of Next Time Will Be Our Turn last year, and it became one of my favourite books. As I understand it, that was a different style of story than Sutanto normally publishes, but I still wanted to read more from this author!

Book Review: The Paris Match by Kateย Clayborn 3 stars. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC! The Paris Match by Kate Clayborn is due out on April 7, 2026. The Preamble: I requested The Paris Match primarily because it had such a pretty cover, but its summary also intrigued me. This was my first time reading a book by this author too, and although this book didn't reel me in like I'd hoped, Iโ€™m definitely interested in reading more from her!

I have such a nice group of people I follow online and irl friends that I sometimes forget when Iโ€™m talking to *other* people irl that not everyone in my life has common sense views about world events and then I end up so thoroughly disappointed and enraged about it. So anyway ๐Ÿ–•๐Ÿป๐ŸงŠ

Reading Roundup: My Top Reads ofย 2025 My first year with a book blog has come to a close! 2025 was a crazy reading year for me, but hopefully it was the start of something new and lasting. I actually didn't read a single book in January or February; it was the slump of all slumps. I started in March by reading a truly terrible, horrible, no good, very bad book because a website said they'd reward anyone who read and reviewed the book $50, and I needed all the extra money I could scrounge up.

I read a LOT of books in 2025 (at least for my standards). I also wrote about my favourite reads!!
