Confessions:

Daughter of Smoke and Bone is probably my favorite book on this list. My guitar‘s name is Karou.

I like to reread Croak (and the rest of the series) when I get sad.  It reminds me a bit of the TV show Dead Like Me, which makes me happy.

Tracie and I are listening to The Dream Thieves right now and loving it. I can’t wait to get to Blue Lily, Lily Blue.

I haven’t read Anna Dressed in Blood.  I saw a lot of people talking about it in BookTube a while back, and at one point I had the audiobook (before my external hard drive crashed).

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown made me wonder why it was I hadn’t read any Holly Black before. And so that’s one of my missions for whenever. Read more Holly Black.
