What I Read This Week 🍋

2/16 Edited to

... Read moreThis week, I dove into the wildly imaginative world of 'Dungeon Crawler Carl' by Matt Dinniman, a novel that blends humor, adventure, and post-apocalyptic vibes in a way that really grabbed my attention. Reading it reminded me how much I appreciate books that can balance action with clever writing, making the story not just thrilling but also surprisingly funny. If you enjoy stories with intense quests and quirky characters, this book is definitely a must-read. It’s been making waves on platforms like BookTok and has sparked lively conversations within the literary community, especially within groups like #lemon8bookclub. Sharing experiences with fellow readers has deepened my appreciation for the book's unique approach to the dungeon crawler trope. Alongside this, I explored thought-provoking essays by Marisa Kashino, which added a nice variety to my reading week. Her work offers insightful commentary that complements the entertainment of fiction by grounding the week’s reading habits in reflection and cultural critique. Overall, mixing genres and styles has enriched my reading experience, pushing me to engage not just with the storylines but also the broader contexts and communities around these books. I encourage fellow readers to explore diverse genres and participate in book clubs or online forums to enhance their own reading adventure.

Here are the books I read this week and my thoughts on them! My highlight was definitely This Is Why We Lied by Karin Slaughter it was SO unputdownable! It’s a very gruesome thriller so check your triggers if you’re going to read it, but I highly recommend if you like dark thrillers 📚 #lemon8pa

A person holds the front cover of the book "Behind Closed Doors" by B.A. Paris. The cover features the title in large red letters, a doorknob, and a broken figurine, with the question "THE PERFECT MARRIAGE? OR THE PERFECT LIE?"
I read it in a week! 🤓
This book gave me so many emotions. Gave me rage, anxiety, panic etc. This book is about this “perfect couple” but nothing is what it seems, but you wouldn’t even imagine what it is until you read it ! It’s not a crazy twist but it was worth reading it I enjoyed the ride with a very happy e
