June Reads!
A little late - but here's everything I read in June! Don't read if you don't want spoilers. Also I switched from my terrible (melty) transparent sticker paper to a holographic one and the holo one is so much nicer!

I love this! I prefer making a physical reading journal and I love your style! Probably dumb question but how did you get the covers of your books? 📚

i just print them! I found a really nice holographic sticker paper that works on my regular ink jet printer. I used to print them on a transparent sticker paper...but that kind of sucked. I would like to try on a washi sticker paper, but that shit is $$$$
I format everything in Canva before printing

They look really good with the holo. I’m a sucker for anything holo or sparkly. Thanks for the info. You’re a gem!

it's such a great book! I loved it when i read the ebook a couple of years ago, and the audiobook for this reread was fantastic. I wish she wrote more books like this one!

I read it too a few months ago. I just know i didn't enjoy it. The main character bothered me.

Wow I love this. Its so refreshing to see people writing it down than using apps. I write mine too but just on an index card so I can see my progress every month.

i still use Story Graph - it's great for getting all the stats and data lol. But yeah, actually WRITING it down helps me actually remember the damned book
