/audiobook lovers, what are you currently listening to?

I'm on the hunt for my next one, but I just finished Headhunter by Kristen Proby, a great mix of contemporary romance with a dash of mafia. I'm digging it.

A new author I discovered this year is @authorkelcarpenter and I fell in love with the Daizlei Academy series. (Pretty sure it was through @allthingsnatusch.) And the audiobooks are sooo good!

Now I've been snatching up all the ebooks since they're on KU and they're totally bingeable.

If you love fantasy romance, check out this author!

/how are your reading challenges doing, if you're doing any?!

As you all know, I'm a bit obsessed with working on my Netgalley TBR and I kept seeing the one that @angelareadsbooks took part in last month. That got me interested and I decided to participate in #loveARCtuallyxNetgalleyChallenge for April that's hosted by @lovearctually .

There's a bingo card to go along with it and I'm just hoping to get at least one BINGO.

So far I've read 2 ARCs and working on my third. Once I get through these, I'll be picking books at random from my TBR.

Here's to reaching my goal of a 70% feedback ratio by the end of the year!

/ thoughts on fan fiction?

When things shutdown a year ago, I wasn't really in the mood for some of my reading. And I found myself stumbling into fanfic and my love for #zutara began.

Something I absolutely love about fanfic is all the amazing artwork and that's actually how I stumbled upon the stunning work by @elithienart! Also, they recently did the beautiful dust jackets for the ACOTAR series (a few photos back).

And I finally added some prints to my Zutara obsession, can't wait to have them framed and displayed on my wall!

/ shifter romances, what's your fave?

I really wanted to try @whisperingchapters photo and it didn't quite go the way I wanted to. But this is what we got. 😂 I'll try again in the future. If you haven't yet, their feed is absolutely stunning ♡

We got the cover reveal for @juliettecrossauthor Hunt of the Dragon, absolutely lover her dragon series!

I just bought this series in pb and can't wait to put them on my shelf!

(close up will be shared in my stories!)

Thought I'd do a little Meet the Bookstagrammer since there are a ton of new faces!

Let's do this!

2. Born in Hawai'i and raised in Washington State.
3. Current goal in life is to have my 2 month old nap longer than 45 mins 😴
4. I part my hair to the side 🤣 cause apparently that's a thing that's being pointed out lol
5. I think pickles are disgusting and was so thankful I didn't crave them when I was pregnant.
6. I've lived in Slovenia for 2 years and it was such a life changing experience. Beautiful country!
7. Loveeeeee music and just want everyone to love the same songs as I do ☺️ (I share some fave listens in my highlights)
8. Eager for that next Mariana Zapata release, anyone else?! 😂

Okay, tagging everyone cause I love reading about all my bookish friends ♡

/and that's the end of March! What was your favorite read this month?

More book recommendations coming your way! I was recently tagged by fellow bookish friend over at @liber_lady to share a bookstack that reminds me of spring. Honestly, I don't have a whole lot of colorful books.

Loving this stack so much and they're all favorites from new adult romance to fantasy romance.

♡ Top Secret by @sarina.bowen @ellekennedy33
♡ Bet the Farm @quirkybird
♡ On the Island @traceygarvisgraves (forever recommending this book!)
♡ House of Dragons @authorkalinde
♡ The Spanish Love Deception @thebibliotheque

/ interconnected series, anyone? I've been doing

/ interconnected series, anyone?

I've been doing a lot of re-reading this year and it has been the absolute best. There's a lot of series that I just haven't finished and am finally getting to them. The beauty of taking on less ARCs.

I binged @staceymariebrown NA fantasy romance series that are interconnected. You have to read these in order and I recommend them soooo much. I'm still working on my series write-up, it's taking a bit of time because... well, it's a lot of books.

🌟 SERIES READING ORDER🌟
DARKNESS
COLLECTOR
LIGHTNESS

Each series has a different couple, Lightness covers two couples within that series. And you'll see characters from the previous books as you make your way through. From the badass heroines to the heroes you just can't help, but love 😉

All the recommendations for these plus I just love Stacey 😘

/ weekend plans?

Honestly, I hope to get a nap in since the mister doesn't have to work this weekend 👍🏽

Look at that, I'm attending another #romancestagramball that's being hosted by the lovely @feminist_romance.

And my date or dates (wink*wink) is Den of Vipers by @katieknightauthor.

Plus there's a nice little reel I made 😂 all the trends, but it was fun. Serious props to the ones that make the book toks and book... reels? It's too much work and I don't even know how I had the energy to make it.

Today I'll be donating to the Asian Mental Health Collective!
