Currently devouring Emily Henry books (and delicious sandwiches paired with iced lattes). Almost halfway through my second read this week and it’s only Wednesday.

In case anyone is curious, about switching from kindle to kobo, I have had basically no real issues so far and have found the switch to be very worth it and I find the kobo to be a much friendlier (better UI and not constantly making me look at the store) and overall just a better device to use.

converting my kindle ebooks has not difficult at all (if you want a step by step explanation of how to do that this is the video I used) and the only books I've issues with her comics and that was just because I forgot they were a different format than text books and converted them to the wrong thing.

I like some of the short cuts on the kobo a lot and the only thing I really miss is having some sort of page number (which is very not even accurate on kindle, but I did like seeing "oh I'm on page 243 of a 500 page book") but there are other features that the kobo has that the kindle doesn't that I think make up for it. Like giving you a physical progress bar and being able to tell you how many "pages" (by which the kobo means how many time you will turn to the next screen) you have in the chapter you're on or in the book total, which will adjust for font size and whatnot

overall, glad I'm switched and I'm excited to keep using it and the writing feature more.

Anyone have good eReader recommendations? I want something very small that I can read library books on.

Just realised I haven’t shown my kindle here. So here’s my baby.

I've just released my first novel and the first in a trilogy! The Bonds That Bind Us is a story of trauma, healing, found family, and growth. It is a literary fiction with a gay romance plot, and is currently FREE ON KINDLE FOR EVERYONE!

🦇 Heir Book Review 🦇

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

❓ #QOTD What's your favorite fantasy book?❓ 🦇 An orphan. An outcast. A prince. And a killer who will bring an empire to its knees. An old tragedy fuels Aiz's need for vengeance, while love of her people that propels her. Sirsha agrees to use her magic to hunt a killer who is murdering children across the Martial Empire. And Quil is the Empire's crown prince, though he's loath to take the throne. Sabaa Tahir interweaves the lives of these three young people as they grapple with power, treachery, love, and the devastating consequences of unchecked greed, on a journey that may cost them their lives—and their hearts. Literally.

💜 *Insert a plethora of creative curses here* For fig's sake. I can't even begin to describe the pure AWE I have, not only for this story, but for Sabaa Tahir, fantasy and Muslim-American literary goddess, in general. I honestly can't think of a story I've read that was so well intertwined, so fully conceptualized, while respecting roots of the series that came before it. Earlier this year, I had the fortune to read The Fragile Threads of Power by VE Schwab, which continued her Shades of Magic series. Reading Heir sparked that same feeling; the sensation of returning home after a long journey through other vast worlds. I'm grateful that Penguin Teen hosted the Ember in the Ashes read-along this summer. While Heir introduces us to new characters, 20 years after the Ember in the Ashes series ends, each mention and emergence of a familiar character provided a sweet taste of nostalgia I didn't know I needed. These books have seeped themselves deep within my marrow since 2015, and Sabaa Tahir has been on my favorite/auto-buy author for just as long. She's the first Muslim-American to win the National Book Award for Young People's Literature; a feat that gives me hope and inspiration as a Muslim-American writer.

💜 Reading Heir, you can see how much Tahir's prose has flourished over the past decade. Despite stepping back into this familiar world, it's richer, more vivid. The action is just as intense and ruthless, the characters undeniably unique. The underlying themes resonate deeply. I loved every nod to South Asian, Pakistani, and Islamic culture. It's always the five-star book reviews I struggle with the most. I could talk about this story for hours, but I'd spoil so much that I want you to experience for yourself.

💙 Don't worry: if you haven't read the An Ember in the Ashes quartet, you can still enjoy Heir. The three main characters have their own vivid story to tell, and while there are mentions of many beloved characters from the original series, they're supporting cast to Aiz, Sirsha, and Quil. I will say that the first part of the story took a moment to adjust to, and there's the lingering question of HOW these characters are connected, but once you realize how the breadcrumbs were laid out for you, you'll realize the execution is FLAWLESS. The fast pace keeps you on your toes, the ever-growing tension driving you to the last page. As for the underlying romantic story, AH! It was perfectly built, the sass and chemistry playful without stealing from the main plot, yet heart-wrenching; that kind of painful that keeps you invested long-term. OH! And can we talk about our villain? That BUILD?! I love a villain with reason--a character who doesn't realize they're the villain at all, someone with a mission that goes about it in all the wrong ways. This story had EVERYTHING and then some. I'll be recommending it for the next 20 years.

🦇 Recommended for fans of The Red Queen series, The Lunar Chronicle series, and The Throne of Glass series.

ok so as AO3 is down I feel the need to once again rec the MoonReader+ app. sorry to my irl friends who have heard this speech before

[Edit: not available for ios, sorry!]

Yes it looks like a standard eReader but it’s basically a fanpersons’s BFF. I basically download any fic I even like the look of into it and here’s what it does:

Saves the AO3 tags so you can SEARCH TAGS and allows you to edit them/create new tags

Searches the actual text. Trying to remember a fic and all you can remember is that someone make a joke about celery in it? Search ‘celery’ and BOOM there is the fic (unless you read a lot of celery fic, idk your life)

Automatically puts the fic summary as the file summary so you can browse fics with ease, and automatically saves the author name

You can create different favourite categories - I have one per fandom

You can mark fics as part of a series and actually have it display the series name and number when browsing so you know which order to read in

Downloads any covers/art the fic has and ALLOWS YOU TO ADD/EDIT YOUR OWN

Has a ton of options for text size/reading formats (I have a dark grey background which really helps with my eye condition, as white on black can make my eyes blur)

Keeps all links functional so you can hop back and review/kudos fic at the end

It has an automated TTS reading function

I once emailed the creator about something that was bugging me, HE EMAILED BACK AND FIXED IT IN THE NEXT UPDATE

LOOK AT HOW PRETTY MY SAVED FIC LOOKS WITH THEIR CAREFULLY CURATED COVERS (2 different view styles below):

21 de setembro, sábado — Fazia tempo que eu não lia um mangá tão fofinho. Tô longe de acabar, mas já posso dizer que é do tipo de história tranquila e bem relaxante, sem dramalhão desnecessário. Os personagens são tão cativantes, também!

A história me lembra um pouco Toradora por causa do protagonista. Ele é um menino gentil, mas que por algum motivo tem uma aparência amedrontadora. Por causa disso, ele acaba tendo uma péssima autoestima.

O destaque da história é a construção das relações de amizade, ainda que fique claro que em algum momento teremos algum romance, também.
