✧AUGUST WRAPUP✧ ft Life Scroll & September Hopefuls

Well well are we even suprised at all that I’m guilty of procrastination? Yeah, I finally got around to doing my wrap up. IN MY DEFENSE, I had a 3 day weekend and it was my anniversary and bf’s bday (they land on the same day, it’s so funny). There’s really no reason to explain myself but it’s more of a self-reminder that it’s ok to pause for a bit lol.

📚Anyway, I started August laughing and crying with Daybreak. Then I locked in with arcs, buddy reads, and then took a detour to Wattpad and devoured a 960 dark mafia romance: Runaway by Bazukah which 10/10 rec. Her writing is crack, now I want to dive into her other books.

🫂As always special shoutouts to the book besties, they make each buddy read experience amazing.

🎞️Castelvania is my new obsession, Spider-man was perfect, and Sterling Point won for best drama series in my list. Ohhh & please watch Widow’s Bay it’s the perfect horror/comedy series for spooky season.

🕯️life updates: august was pretty chill, very few outings, and lots of ordering in. My soul was preparing to be summoned for the ber’ months 😏🍂

& speaking of ber’ months, happy September!! I feel alive😩. I already started making at home PSLs and craving dark academia, gothic, moody reads.

🍂My hopefuls speak for itself 🤭. I have some very highly anticipated arcs. I also will be starting my rereads w/ the audiobooks of The Eating Woods series in prep for Vasmora. Threshing Day is also up there. Per usual, I may not get through my list timely but I will prevail either way LOL.

I did finish The Knight and the Moth to start off Sept. which was easily 5 ⭐️ and now I’m halfway into The Knave & the Moon. I am obsessed with Rachel Gillig’s writing. ✍🏼✨

I hope you all have a great week!! 💋

Qotd: what are you most looking forward to in these ber’ months or current read?

「𝔪𝔬𝔫𝔡𝔞𝔶 𝔪𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔫𝔦𝔫𝔤」

🥀 🕸️ 🖤 🦇 🪦

i’m feeling a lot of feelings on this beautiful gloomy monday morning. if you’ve been following me for a while, you might know that this past year was a year of healing and growing from an abusive relationship. it’s been a hard year of figuring out who i was in the aftermath of it all.

books have always been my escape from the world. i was part of this community but always hidden away. and so i finally decided i needed to stop hiding myself from the world and not let my trauma dictate my life. while it did change me entirely, i knew i didn’t want to be the person who remained stuck in my trauma and let it take away my happiness and will to live a better life.

i wanted to find new friends and a community with a shared love of stories that change us, help us, give us joy and love and show us a world where anything is possible.

all of you have added a piece of love to my bookish moments and i can’t thank you all enough for it. you have all impacted me in beautiful ways.

here’s to a year of beautiful moments and more reading 🖤

I wish i could tag more than 20 people because there are SO MANY of you that inspire me 🥹🖤🥀✨

March 2026 Book Releases 📚☘️

✨ℚ — What March book release are you pumped for? OR, do you celebrate St. Patty’s Day?

I swear every month in 2026 is massive for book releases; either that, or I’ve just become psychotic with my releases schedule. But… how can I help it?!

For March 2026 book releases we have all of the following sub-genres, across 48 books that nabbed my personal interest:

☘️ Dark Romance
☘️ Epic Romantasy (one has Vikings!)
☘️ Paranormal Romantasy
☘️ Mythological Retellings
☘️ Dystopian Romance
☘️ Contemporary Romance
☘️ Sports Romance
☘️ Dark Fantasy Romance
☘️ Dark Academia
☘️ Gothic Romance
☘️ Horror Thriller

A few of these are trad, paperback, or deluxe special edition re-releases, notated with a little ☘️ — I’m particularly excited to nab Dire Bound, and three of my all-time favs are getting paperback releases: Enigma, The Wind Weaver, and House of Blight!

As always, this isn’t a full list of alllll the book releases; it’s just the ones that I’m into and intrigued by (and know about), because these lists are a labor of love!

What did I miss? 🏷️ing some friends to throw in!

*Dates are subject to change by authors and publishers at any time! Apologies for any I may have gotten wrong, but do let me know!
