The Apothecary Diaries Season 2
As per usual, I LOVE Apothecary Diaries. Maomao is the aroace KING we all deserve. I love that Jinshi is 100% a doting husband on her autistic ass.

Was Grady Hendrix a teenage girl in a past life? Some of it is staggeringly teenage girl. The horror of being young and powerless rolls off this book strongly.

Rosemary’s Baby
A young couple, Rosemary and Guy, moves into an infamous New York apartment building, known by frightening legends and mysterious events, with the purpose of starting a family. Liked the book better.

Trigger Warning: Kidnappings
Welcome to the Menagerie.
Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.
What is M?
I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
