📚✨ October was supposed to be my budgeting era... but apparently, it turned into my book hoarding era instead ��😅🍂
 Honestly, I just blacked out and woke up surrounded by new reads… totally not my fault 👀💸

✨ Time to make a dent in my TBR before the year ends! I had to hop on this challenge and pick out the 10 books I want to read before December 31 - a mix of long-time favorites I’ve been putting off, new releases I can’t stop hearing about and a few that have been haunting my tbr cart for months...

I’m making it my mission to finish them all, no matter how chaotic the holiday season gets. ☕💫

✨ BOOKS X SPARKLES ✨

Girl Dinner by @olivieblake is sharp, indulgent and deliciously unhinged, so the jewellery had to serve the same energy.
⠀
I picked bold, statement pieces that feel a little chaotic, a little glamorous and entirely too much in the best possible way.

this, a book and a latte ☕️ 📕 🌅 Still can’t quite believe I’ve been calling this place my home for almost a year 🌊

This morning I promised myself I would make more of an effort to read a book by the water over the next few weeks before it gets really cold. Probably the extra serotonin I need to fight the winter months ☀️ 🌊 🌅

Happy release day to Good Spirits by @authorbkborison ❄

Good Spirits is cozy, romantic and full of that small-town warmth... and ghosts?
⠀
I chose soft golds, warm tones, and pieces that feel like laughter over a peppermint mocha and the comfort of fairy lights on a tree.

Currently obsessed with Fireball by Pitbull, it just keeps playing in my head all day every day and I kinda love it and I kinda hate it 🥲

Anyway, today was a pretty chill day and I managed to get lots of work done 📤 not a very bookish day but not all days are meant to be bookish 📚

Dear fellow nerd who hopefully also has a TBR problem,

I’m applying for the Instagram Rep position at @geek_and_artsy_bookish because I think it’s time my obsession with books, fandoms and overanalyzing fictional characters finally pays off. My camera roll is 80% shelfies, 15% unhinged book memes and 5% photos of my 90s Star Trek crushes, so basically, I’m like super qualified.

I’ve been running my own chaotic corner of Bookstagram and Booktok for a while now, where I specialise in crafting videos that make people both laugh and question their life choices (in a good way). I have a sixth sense for trending audios, can make anything look aesthetic with the right filter, and once made 27 strangers cry over a paperback I accidentally folded a page of.

Your company’s vibe (geeky, bookish, slightly feral) speaks to my soul. I’m ready to bring chaotic good energy to our feeds and maybe start a few wholesome internet revolutions along the way.

Thank you for your time, your patience and your tolerance for caffeine-driven applicants. I look forward to hearing from you (and possibly screaming about fictional characters together in the DMs).

Warmest regards (and mild panic),
Silvia @ whatslondonreading | ☕ Professional Overthinker | ✨

Alchemy of Secrets shimmers with mystery, magic and a touch of danger, so the jewellery had to feel just as mystical.

I chose golden tones, iridescent shimmer and intricate details that look like they could hold a secret or two themselves.

I was going to film an unboxing for my #booktok like usual, but I had just had a super long day at work, I was bone tired and just wanted some serotonin, so I opened the box as soon as I sat down on the sofa 🛋️

I’m so in love with the cover art, the spredge and the naked hardcover art which I forgot to include in this carousel 🫣🙃😅

Happy release day to A Match Made in Hell by @@writesalotte 🔥

A Match Made in Hell is sharp, sizzling and delightfully devilish, so the jewellery had to turn up the heat.
⠀
I picked pieces that gleam like firelight, glint with temptation and carry just enough danger to feel infernal (in the best way).
��⠀
Because if you’re going to dance with the devil, you might as well do it in diamonds. 😈

ARC Review: A Match Made in Hell by Charlotte Ingham. OUT TOMORROW!

✨Think Lucifer meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer... 🔥

Thank you NetGalley and Charlotte Ingham for this ARC.

We follow Willow, who dies at 21 and wakes up in Asphodel. Feeling that her death was not supposed to happen, she mades a deal with broody and maddeningly attractive King Sath, to conquer the seven deadly sins to earn her freedom. The catch? He’s the last person she’d ever want to spend eternity with… and yet she can’t help falling for him.

This book is everything I love in an enemies-to-lovers story: snappy banter, slow-burn tension and chemistry. Willow’s sass and stubbornness bounce perfectly off Sath’s dark, guarded energy, making every interaction electric. I also adored watching Willow grow from a lost, angry soul (whom I actually found quite annoying at times) into someone who finds strength and even family in the unlikeliest of places.

There were a couple of moments where the pacing dipped in the middle and I do think the ending felt a bit rushed but I overall enjoined it.

If you’re craving a funny and delightfully spicy romantasy with a fierce FMC and a grumpy demon love interest, this is your next read.

Rating: ★★★

August has been a bit of a whirlwind between work, bookfest, holidays and a stomach bug that is plaguing my existence.

📚I only managed to read 2 books from my physical TBR
🎧 Audiobooks were my best friends this month, my brain just didn't want to brain
💔 I am so behind on my ARCs

✨ ARC REVIEW: Unseen Eye by Nikole Sekula ✨

Thank you to @thenerdfam for the gifted eARC. #unseeneye #thenerdfam

“Unseen Eye” (Aetherian Chronicles #1) is a dark, twisty fantasy romance filled with magic, betrayal and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension. We follow Eva, a heroine whose hidden power pulls her into a world of secrets, shifting loyalties and ancient prophecies. With portals opening and shadows closing in, she must figure out who she can trust and find out who she really is.

💭 My thoughts:
Unseen Eye is everything I hope for in a fantasy romance: a heroine with undiscovered power, tangled loyalties and a world that exudes myths and magic.
The enemies-to-lovers heat? Chef’s kiss.
The twists? Nail-biting.
thrilling start to what promises to be an epic series, perfect for when you want your heart racing and your mind guessing! 🖤✨
The world-building is lush and immersive, giving you that delicious feeling of stepping into another realm. The pacing kept me hooked with twists, betrayals, big reveals and that classic push-and-pull between characters

✨ If you love:
🔮 Intricate magic systems
🖤 Enemies-to-lovers banter
😮 Betrayal around every corner
📚 A series you can sink your teeth into
…then “Unseen Eye” should be at the top of your TBR.
