You should totally try to read Shakespeare's Macbeth. It's my fave of his works, personally. It's one of his plays that really holds your attention, and Lady Macbeth's character is quite good! It has witches, that's where "Double double toil and trouble" comes from!

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

I'm scared of Shakespeare lolll, but you are making me want to. Maybe after lady Macbeth I will and be able to compare the two! But that is such a cool piece of trivia!

I love the Trixie shirt 🤩 I honestly request books that I like the cover for 😂 I loved Cuckoo! Honeycomb sounds so interesting!

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

Thank youuuu! I got it off etsy! I was requesting based on covers for awhile and then I read the synopsis and was like oh wait I don't want to read that 💀 So excited for both of those!!

Honeycomb and the night guest sounds so good!!

Right!?!? I really hope it's as good as it sounds bc im hyping it up so bad in my head lmao

@brooklinslibrary Ай бұрын

I'm so hyped to get into the horrors that is a conversion camp with Cuckoo 👀🥚 12:14 OMG same. I gave up after I had 3 books that were nearing the deadline. No more ARCs for me 🤣 I can't handle the pressure Honeycomb sounds so interesting. I hope it's a slay for you!

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

Righhhhht!?!? I really hope it delivers 👏🏻 Arcs and time limits are soooo much pressure. I'm in awe of people that can keep up and find a good balance.

I’m looking forward to your thoughts about Don’t Let the Forest In!

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

It sounds so wonderful for a fall season read!!

@kitkatkc9 Ай бұрын

The cover of Lady Macbeth makes me think of Anya Taylor-Joy 🤩 I just googled images of “Anya Taylor-Joy looking backwards” looking back and forth at them & the cover, so similar, I love her so I’m intrigued

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

It's so stunning!

@Jess_U_and_Books Ай бұрын

I’ve also been left on read for the Paul Tremblay book! 😂 I read Don’t Let The Forest In last month. I don’t always love YA horror, but this one was fantastic. So descriptive and honestly some graphic scenes. I loved it.

@@Jess_U_and_Books at least we have each other lmaooo. Ooo I love to hear that. One of my tried of true YA horror authors is Krystal Sutherland. She does not disappoint

@@WickedScorpio I haven't read anything by her, but I've heard great things about House of Hollow. I'll have to check out some of her work!

You have so many great books on your NetGalley shelf! I wish I could balance the reviewing with everything else to actually create a bookshelf for myself 😂 You do such a great job at finding the latest, most interesting books 😍 I am so fascinated by Withered, American Rapture (although idk if it’s gonna be for me based on the type of horror), and Don’t let the forest in. Oh is the conversion camp book that you didn’t like Camp Damascus? I loved the first half and then it had major pacing issues for me for the rest of it.

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

It is soooo hard to find the balance!! Obviously I'm failing at it lol. Yeah I'm not sure on the themes for american rapture but I'll give it a fair shot. Yes it was Camp damascus 🫣 it started off so strong but teetered off for me very fast between the character and turn it took. so hoping cuckoo does it for me 🤞🏻

@astoldbymaddie Ай бұрын

Your shirt... Iconic!! 😍🙌 How did I not know netgalley had audiobooks?!🤯 The time limits on arcs always stress me out lol 🤣🤣 I will ABSOLUTELY buddy read Withered with you!! It will motivate me to read it too. I've been slacking so hard with my reading lately, so let's do itttt! 🤝 I am almost finished American rapture...... Ummmmm idk about that one 😐👀😶 lol it's not for me. I loved Maeve fly tho so maybe we'll be opposite and you'll love it?!

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

I got it on etsy 🥰 Time limits are the most stressful thing to me lol Yay we will decide eventually when we should read it 😂 my reading has been very slacking too. Especially physical/digital reads. I'm currently relying mostly on audiobooks with the move. Yeah idk if american rapture will be it for me either but I'll give it a fair shot. But I would be stoked if it ended up the opposite for me!

Loved seeing these. I got Netgalley at the beginning of the year and didn't fully realize how things worked. I fell behind on finishing so many books before their publication date 😅I think I have 12 on my shelf and just haven't had the time to fit them in

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

It's so hard to remember them when I have so many physical ones right in front of me 😅 I definitely need to be better at keeping up with them

@goodmornindreamer Ай бұрын

@@WickedScorpio totally understand! I've been going through the month of and downloading any books that publish in june so I have them before they get archived.

@Kritz_Reads Ай бұрын

It is so easy to get overwhelmed on netgalley. I didn't know what I was doing at first, and I have a lot of old things on there, that I wish you could just delete. American rapture is nothing like maeve fly, if that helps. It does have a LOT of commentary on religion/religious guilt

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

It really is! I did watch your review on american rapture. It helps that it's not like maeve fly, but the themes don't help 😅💀

@vitareads Ай бұрын

I want to read A Botanical Daughter so badly. Literally just read The Night Guest last night. It was certainly a book. I thought American Rapture was fantastic, but I also loved Maeve Fly lol. Very different stories, so I hope it works for you! Sadly I was denied Horror Movie (and Lady Macbeth actually lol), but I have it on my Libby hold list! 📼 A Dark and Drowning Tide. I know I read it but I don't remember much. Oooh Honeycomb sounds interesting. I hadn't heard of that one. Enjoy! 💖 edit: 2 that I just got that you might be interested in and want to try are the new Brom and LaRocca 🖤

@WickedScorpio Ай бұрын

Hahahahaha "it was certainly a book" 💀 I'm so nervous for american rapture bc the whole religious thing is also not my favorite theme. But I will give it a fair shot! I heard a lot of people got denied for horror movie? Apparently the publisher is picky but idk what that means or if it's true lol. I was surprised I got approved for honeycomb bc my ratio is not good 😅 The new brom is on my list for the Q3 release video for next week! I cannot wait for it 😍 but I'm just going to buy for the artwork that I'm assuming is in it. I still have yet to read larocca 🫣 idk whyyyy, their work sounds amazing to me. I just suck at picking up short stories
