I typically lean toward more horror-y weird books also, but if you're looking for more literary-based ones in the future I would recommend The Hike by Drew Magary and One's Company by Ashley Huston!

I had to skip to Nothing but Blackened Teeth cos I don't know a single person, including myself, who liked it. I'm lucky I know Japanese but the author not translating nor glossary-ing the Japanese words and such was a BAD choice imo.

Hello, I recently wrote a book that talks about the ten greatest civilizations in human history. I want to market it and hope to achieve 1,000 sales through it, but I don’t know how to do that. I have no problem getting half the profit from the book Between me and whoever will market it or upload it to his store as if it were his own book, I am sorry for the long message but I do not know how to market it😢

"Continuing to read despite being terrified that we're never gonna read an all time favorite book ever again" is a perfect descriptor of my reading year last year. So far this year has been better but I totally know the feeling 💀 I hope the second half picks up for you!

Since you love Ronan so much you should check out Summer Sons the main character of that reminds me of him a lot

I feel the same way that you do! 2nd book felt more convenient rather than Pip finding out stuff, 3rd TOTALLY felt like Pip was not an active participant in the story, rather a vessel to get us to where Holly Jackson wanted the plot to go. I just miss the Pip from book one who found things out by being crazy sneaky and smart, rather than getting tripped up easily, or waiting for evidence to be handed to her.

This was my issue with A dowry of blood. She kept referring to them as siblings and I would have loved it otherwise.. I haven't read any other books by them but now that I know it's in two books.😬

I'm dnf ing a lot. I was highly anticipating Riot Act by Sarah Laviere. Yes, but it should have been an adult book. But I can appreciate that it's ya , cause the kids need inspiration to fight back again fascism. It's an alternative history book in the 80s with a dictator

"Story of the Eye" by Georges Bataille is THE most unhinged book I have ever read. I cannot in good faith "recommend" it but I think you would be entertained (& it's a classic).

I should watch more of the video before I comment but as someone who is currently entering the ✨weird girl era✨ I highly recommend The Eyes are the Best Part. It's super weird (also gross and gory at times) and I absolutely devoured it in 24 hours

I'm not sure if this actually fits the weird girl vibes, but I love weird girl books and am desperate to get more people to read Your Shadow Half Remains by Sunny Moraine. It's a novella, so it's a quick read. I spent a chunk of that book wondering if I had taken an edible and forgot. (I had not.)
