Now reading…

Not going to lie.. I’ve had this book for a while but I’ve been putting it off. My TBR wheel picked it though so now I have to get through it! I’m a little nervous based on the writing style but I’m going in with a positive mindset 🫡

What are yall reading this weekend?

I was really hoping this book would be as good as everyone has said but so far not into it that much. I’m hoping it will get better for me. Not everyone is going to like the same things though so we’ll just have to see when I reach the end if my opinion will change. 💓🤞🏼
