๐ Still Need to Read ๐คท๐ผ
Since Iโve been judging for SPFBO this year (which has been ๐๐ข๐๐ฏ๐๐ฃ๐), much of my pleasure reading has been put off until after the comp finishes.
This shows all the books I wanna jump into. Can someone rewire my brain to make me a speed reader?

What a weird and absolutely mind-blowing experience this was! Certainly one of my top reads of the year.

Automatic Noodle by @Annaleen
I loved everything about this book, from its cozy vibes to its empathetic approach to character development, to even its very relevant themes and world-building.
