Iām really excited about this blog and Iād love if people would check it out šEven though pride month is over, pride should never end, so I should be reading and reviewing a lot of LGBT+ books in the coming weeks š
This month was my best reading month ever! I participated in 3 read-a-thons: RYBSAT, Tome Topple, and Deweyās 24-Hour. In total, over the course of the month, I read nineteen books!! Iām super proud of that. I read 16 physical books, 2 ebooks, and 1 audiobook. The full list of books I read is below the cut, along with my ratings for each book and link to my reviews.
Sorry my pictures are so low quality. I only had artificial light and my phone camera when I took them. Iām gonna try to step up my photography game in May.Ā

I did not know what to do. Everything was a mess. I was in love with my two best friends, and I was making them both miserable at the same time. And there were big horny bugs up above us that were eating the whole planet.
I'm reading Grasshopper Jungle and I'm like 70 pages in. This is the weirdest book I've read and I'm not even a third of the way through it. Also, I don't think in my life I've read the word horny as much as I have since I started this book.
This is my new book blog side blog and I need some blogs to follow! I post reviews, wrap-ups, reblog book aesthetics and photos, etc. If you reblog this, I'll check out your blog! If I decide to follow you it'll be from my personal @parkjimindotjpg
I finished a total of eight books this month, which, after a year of barely reading, Iād say is really good. Three of these books I read for the RYBSAT readathon, and I plan to do a separate wrap-up for that as well once itās over. Click the read more to view the list of books I read in order of when I read them. Links to my reviews are included.
Vengeance Road by Erin Bowman
A great YA Western with a touch of mystery thrown in. This book got me back into reading after a year long reading slump, which goes to show how much I liked it. 4/5 stars
The Cold Dish (Walt Longmire #1) by Craig Johnson
I was of course inspired by the TV show Longmire to read this book, and although it was nothing like the show, I truly enjoyed it. Itās slow-paced but thatās what I wanted after reading the fast-paced Vengeance Road. Iām looking forward to continuing this series. 4/5 stars
A Storm of Swords (A Song of Ice and Fire #3) by George R.R. Martin
I started this book over a year ago and had a little less than half the book left when I picked it up again this month. There are a lot of point of views in this book that I didnāt like which is why it took me so long to read. It really started picking up at the end and I ended up really loving it. 4/5 stars
A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire #4) by George R.R. Martin
I tore through this book in about a week, so needless to say I loved it. It left me wanting more of the series, but at the same time, I didnāt want it to end. 5/5 stars
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
I was kind of in the middle with this book. There were some poems I absolutely loved, and some that I really didnāt. It was a nice quick read. 3/5 stars
Mosquitoland by David Arnold
I bought this book with know prior knowledge of it, only knowing from the synopsis that itās a road-trip book. I loved it. Itās made my list of favortie books. I donāt often like contemporaries, but Mosquitoland isnāt like most contemporaries, in my opinion. 5/5 stars
The Goose Girl (The Books of Bayern #1) by Shannon Hale
Mostly I felt kind of āmehā about this book. I liked it but it didnāt stand out to me or leave me thinking or anything like that. The romance was actually pretty great, better than many young adult novels, and I liked the friendships that developed throughout. 3.5/5 stars
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See
I really didnāt expect to love this book as much I did. It wasnāt what I expected and it ended up being very educational in ways I didnāt anticipate. It left me thinking, which to me is always a sign of a powerful book. 4.5/5 stars
Hello PoorQuentyn here's the deal: do you think Brienne is working with Stoneheart against Jaime to kill him? What do you think Stoneheart wants by Jaime, despite the obvious, revenge?
Brienne pretty clearly offered to bring Jaime to Stoneheart in order to save Pod and Hyle, but thereās no way she actually wants Jaime dead. After all, she tried to persuade Stoneheart to give up revenge against him. I imagine she has an escape plan, or will come up with one alongside Jaime, or theyāll just seize an opportunity to try and cut their way free. As for Stoneheartās motivations, yeah, sheās after revenge. Thatās her whole thing at this point:
āShe wants her son alive, or the men who killed him dead,ā said the big man. āShe wants to feed the crows, like they did at the Red Wedding. Freys and Boltons, aye. Weāll give her those, as many as she likes. All she asks from you is Jaime Lannister.ā
I wonder if they might be aided by the Brotherhood itself, or at least some subset of it. Thoros seems to make pretty clear that heās not entirely thrilled with the revenge direction that the (broken) Brotherhood has taken:
āWe were kingās men when we began,ā the man told her, ābut kingās men must have a king, and we have none. We were brothers too, but now our brotherhood is broken. I do not know who we are, if truth be told, nor where we might be going. I only know the road is dark. The fires have not shown me what lies at its end.ā
ā¦and thenā¦
āMy lady,ā Thoros said, āI do not doubt that kindness and mercy and forgiveness can still be found somewhere in these Seven Kingdoms, but do not look for them here. This is a cave, not a temple. When men must live like rats in the dark beneath the earth, they soon run out of pity, as they do of milk and honey.ā
āAnd justice? Can that be found in caves?ā
āJustice.ā Thoros smiled wanly. āI remember justice. It had a pleasant taste. Justice was what we were about when Beric led us, or so we told ourselves. We were kingās men, knights, and heroes ā¦ but some knights are dark and full of terror, my lady. War makes monsters of us all.ā
āAre you saying you are monsters?ā
āI am saying we are human. You are not the only one with wounds, Lady Brienne. Some of my brothers were good men when this began. Some were ā¦ less good, shall we say? Though there are those who say it does not matter how a man begins, but only how he ends. I suppose it is the same for women.ā The priest got to his feet. āOur time together is at an end, I fear. I hear my brothers coming. Our lady sends for you.ā
To me, it seems as though Thoros isnāt exactly thrilled with his current situation. He speaks as one that has resigned himself to his current predicament and the inability to escape it. Perhaps his āendā comes in assisting Brienne and Jaime in their escape from Stoneheart.Ā
*nod* I also think that Thoros will be involved in Brienne and Jaimeās escape. (And hopefully Pod and Hyle too.) But there are other possibilities:
the subset of the Brotherhood that already left when Beric died ā that is, Edric Dayne and Anguy and others ā will be the ones to help (that is, if Edric hasnāt gone home to get involved in the Darkstar-Obara-Areo & Dawn plot)
something very weird will happen, as the Brotherhoodās cave is full of weirwood roots (that is, Bran putting his hand in, like he will with Theon ā because Bran dealing with the men whoāve hurt him (in a strangely non-vengeful way) is a pretty important subplot)
a combination of all of the above?
But yeah, Thoros would still be my biggest bet, for everything @unsungvaliance says above.
