Okay here’s the plan: try to find maybe a version of these images without text. Edit them if need be. Print them off. And stick them to my books.

I really like this russian edition of classic books. Letting famous artists do the covers in YA style was such a simple but clever decision. According to the recent study the number of teenage readers increased, possibly thanks to these covers. I own traditional classics with blank covers but if I ever see one of these in the wild, it’ll probably make me go feral.

Here are some of my favs:

Dracula (art by Renibet)

2.Jane Eyre (art by Ulunii)

3. Little women (art by чаки чаки)

4. The Idiot (the hedgehog-omg-) (art by Xinshi)

5. Pride and Prejudice (art by Cactusute)

6. War and Peace (art by Xinshi)

7. Wuthering Heights (art by Renibet)

8. The Great Gatsby (art by NIKEL)

9. Frankenstein (art by Iren Horrors)

10. Crime and Punishment (art by REDwood)

11. Anna Karenina (art by Ulunii)

12. The Cherry Orchard (art by lewisite)

13. The Master and Margarita (art by Renibet)

Some truths about the publishing industry because I certainly got blindsided when going in. Now I'm so broken by this industry I struggle to encourage aspiring writers lmao

seeing straight men be disgusted by booktok smut recommenders has actually radicalized me to the side of booktok smut recommenders. girls your taste may be atrocious but i will never disparage you for exposing mainstream discourse to the concept of soaking through your underwear. spent my whole life listening to men talk about penises it’s about time they get jumpscared by women talking about pussy in crude detail on social media. go forth and goon my warriors

Okay sisters!!!! I’m finally at 91% of Fourth Wing. It’s taken me a week and a half of only reading on the bus in the mornings and afternoons, and sometimes before bed, to finally get here. It’s been the only times I could read this past 1+ weeks.

Get hype!!! I’m honestly so excited to write another review. I’ve missed it.

Wanted to reblog this here too. Because it affects how slow my book reading has been, hence why my book reviews are taking longer. This week in the mornings when I have had no work to do, I’ve been reading on my bus trips to work. I’ve been listening to the graphic audio of Fourth Wing as well as following along reading. It’s honestly been so fun having all the sound affects and proper voice acting. Regular audio books are so annoying to me. There’s no emotion, no personality in the voice actors voice (at least the ones I’ve listened to). I get so bored. You can be listening to a devastating scene, and the voice reading the story is just monotone and dead. Like how can you be reading such a sad moment and that be your voice???

Mini rant aside, I’m really enjoying Fourth Wing. I think honestly so far it’s between a 3-4. I’m not obsessed like some people are. But it is a very good story that I’ve been enjoying. I’m around 70% through the story. Tairn is honestly the best thing about the book for me. Him and Andarna. Give me more of them honestly.

I’m also slowly making it through Cruel is the Light, and Three Dark Crowns (This months book club book on my discord server).

Since my shifts slow down a bit next week, I’m hoping to smash out more of my assignments and then get back to some reading. I’ve noticed I’m more stressed when I’m not reading often. So that’s pretty sucky. But I’m definitely doing my best.

I’m sorry I haven’t been around much guys. Life’s been insanely busy this week in particular. Work up’d my shift this week (I’m grateful for the money honestly), but I’ve also got uni classes. For whatever reason, ambitious thoughts plagued me again and I’m studying full time game design and animation online. So I literally watch classes on the way home because my bus trip is almost 2 hours and I don’t make it home in time for class. So I’m doing like 10 hour days on Tuesdays and Thursdays and any other time I get I’m doing home work and just dkbsksbdkdndlshd I’m so tired 😭🤣

I’m still here tho!! I haven’t gone away. I just haven’t had a chance to even think about what to post.
