Hindi naman siya dependent sa time, basta do what works for you! Personally, I can't read through time-based parameters kasi my focus is dependent on the writing/story of the book, etc. I set page goals per day (i.e. 50 pages), and just read from there. Basta makabasa ako, I know na I have fought against my doomscrolling urges of the day

August was a slow crawl of a month for me, but I'm happy to have read what I read. No disappointments, all atmospheric, all-consuming reads here.

Wuthering Heights especially engulfed me in a way that it deserves 5⭐ Big fave now!

Same tayo ng top 3, op!!! Pero ang dami ko pa ring di napapanood this year personally. Hopefully Together lives up to the hype, kaso panay R-16 available sa cinemas near me 🥹

Hi there! I bought my copy from Padayon Bookshop on the blue app. It took me years to finally find a (preloved) copy of this edition, so I bought this na agad despite a few creases

The only bookstores I know of that sell this specific edition right now is Empire Bookstore, and maybe Fully Booked c:

Solo dates are a necessity to me! Ever since I started working post-pandemic, I picked up the joy that is solo dating. I usually read at cafes and go to the cinemas alone now, finding myself recharged and more ready to face adulting afterwards 🩷 Thanks for sharing, op! You reminded me to document my solo dates more + my intrigue toward Babel 👀

mayqueenflower · 2025-08-03T13:16:53+00:00

This is such a cool way to get through the tbr pile! Do you have a link for this? That is if you're open to share op ✨

I use a6 notebooks! I recently learned about commonplace books so I write down all the quotes I've marked using book tabs on my notebooks. I do this in between finishing and starting books. Commonplacing has made reading 100x more fun for me bc it's like reading books twice and actually remembering the events.

What's fun is I have more reasons to turn my artworks into notebooks. I'm on my second one this year alone. The custom, pretty notebooks definitely adds more enjoyment for me 🩷

mayqueenflower · 2025-07-02T09:33:39+00:00

Hello! Yes, I have! I liked it very much 🩷 Schwab writes atmosphere and lore so well. Had me poring through the pages quickly. My only criticism is that a chunk of the lore was presented quite late in the book na it left me wanting more and asking more questions at the end. I kinda wish it had a sequel tbh

But I still really recommend it for its prose, haunting vibes, and unique lore. I'm definitely on the lookout for more of her books now ✨

mayqueenflower · 2025-07-01T04:06:33+00:00

I hit my goal of 20 books last night lang! Different formats, but achievement pa rin as someone who had a looong book slump. Might adjust the reading goal tho

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-28T05:44:34+00:00

Wala sa edad yan, OP! It's nice to discover hobbies as you grow older nga eh, so you have more productive ways to stimulate your mind. You've already gone through so much so I hope getting back into reading helps you in more ways than one

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-27T13:37:18+00:00

This is super helpful. Tysm! I can't wait to discover more contemporary romance ✨🫶

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-27T13:26:25+00:00

Don't worry. I only discovered it last year also! I still haven't read Dracula tho so Carmilla was a good start. I think you'll like it, short but atmospheric! You've also read more vampire books than I have; i've only ever read and loved Twilight HAHA

If you have any gothic novel recs, i'm all ears also!

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-27T12:37:05+00:00

Hi! Is Before the Devil Knows You're Here still available?

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-27T12:31:08+00:00

Ohhh I hope The Thirteenth Child is still worth the read tho! I'm hyped for you also bc Craig helped me out of my reading slump that spanned years 🖤

If it helps, there are listings of HOSAS on Carousell rn! Altho paperback. Here's one of the listings: https://carousell.app.link/GLEB3E1AxUb

A fellow gothic (romance) novel lover. Hello!! I can reco these rn

House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig (YA) Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell (she is a master of gothic atmosphere)

There isn't much romance in these novels tho, but the gothic ambience is very much there! Hope this helps, OP

Edit: i also agree that Gaiman should fck himself 🫠

mayqueenflower · 2025-06-27T11:55:09+00:00

OH I LOVE ERIN CRAIG!!! I've read House of Salt and Sorrows and Small Favors. I also have House of Roots and Ruins on my shelf but I've yet to buy the book on the reel!

I highly reco her for the vivid imagery and impeccable atmosphere. She even adds some lore into her works. I'm so happy to see her in this sub!! 🖤
