My latest, current, and next reads (and listens!) My latest, current, and next reads (and listens!) If you're unsure what to read on KU or listen to on Kobo Plus, and you read a little bit of everything ✨spicy✨, you might find something here! This post has unreleased, newly released, a trad pub debut, and books that have been out for a hot minute. Did any catch your eye? 🤭 It's been a great streak so far, my current read (Moon Bite by @clioevansauthor ) just released today! It's PNR OV and I can safely say I've spammed the buddy reading chat to the point they might've muted me already 🤣 and I'm not sorry. Moon Bite reading buddies: @hallavanzee and @rheaprycewrites Up next I get to read and listen to the Sapphire Duet by @kayrileyauthor (ebooks on KU, audio is on Kobo+) 💭 What was your last 5⭐ read, or the best book you've read so far in May!

Making these beauties mine one by one. 😏 I'm stil Making these beauties mine one by one. 😏 I'm still over here daydreaming about Rowan from The Fine Print by @laurenasherauthor and I can't wait to add Final Offer to my shelves the second I can get my hands on it. If you haven't read it yet, you should! I'm in the process of packing and it reminded me that I have some content I haven't posted yet. Mostly new (gifted) additions to my shelves. Plus, soon I won't have to drive 5 hours to the bookstore after we settle into the new place! 💭 Do you have any series you're collecting one by one?! 👀 Tell me more! 👇🏻 [Lauren Asher, contemporary romance, billionaire romance, dreamland billionaires, book recs, romance recs, indigo bookstore, collectors edition, new to my shelf, romance reader, ShelvesOfAHeathen]
🎬 Aaaaaaaand CUT! 🔪 I was fortunate enough to get 🎬 Aaaaaaaand CUT! 🔪 I was fortunate enough to get an ebook ARC of Good For Her by Tylor Paige on Netgalley. It's a horror romance, or whorror romance if you will, and has an FMC you can't help but love! Not gonna lie...the chaos and laugh out loud moments had my Sir looking at me like I grew a 3rd eyeball in the middle of my forehead as we drove back home. 😅 I'd say slasher movies are probably the only kind of "scary movies" that I really watch, and this brought me back to an era of nostalgia that I don't find often. But with ALL of the tension and all of the spice, and make it DARK. 🤭 If you were like me, and had a huge crush on Skeet Ulrich and Matthew Lillard back in the day but you want a bit *more*, definitely give Good For Her a shot. I'm trying to keep this as spoiler free as possible so be sure to check before you jump in, but this has vibes you won't regret. 😏 This was a 5 star for me because it made me feel a good kind of nostalgia mixed with modern elements that I love, it was spicy, well paced and written, and most of all it was relatable. This is also Tylor Paige's traditional publishing debut, and she killed it! 🎊 I ended up grabbing a paperback copy from chapters while we were in the city because this is on my faves shelf for 2026, and I couldn't resist those edges. 🩸🎞️ 💭 What is your favourite slasher movie or who is your favourite masked villain?

I just wanted to give a big ol' thank you to @inst I just wanted to give a big ol' thank you to @instalovegraphicdesign for this branding! I was fortunate enough to win her latest giftaway and had the choice between branding or a cover, and I opted for branding to use for my booksta and personal reader spaces. She managed to work in both art commissions from @castawolf and new elements, and it's safe to say I'm obsessed. 🥹 Thank you times a bajillion, Dana! You're a gem 🖤 👀 If you've made it this far... Big things are coming. Keep your eyes peeled! 😏🤭 #newbranding #bookish #romancereader #romancerecs #shelvesofaheathen

I've been eyeballing this for a while now. 📖 Filthy Rich Vampire by Geneva Lee ❔ Have you read this yet? (no spoilers, please) I have already read the Filthy Rich Fae books (still need to get the book trophies for my shelf) and I can't wait to dive into Filthy Rich Vampire. The Filthy Rich Fae books were great and so was the unique world Geneva has created. I still remember it vividly, even with my goldfish brain. I'll happily take this as a sign to start reading! 🥰 🦇 Thank you Ashley B! 🖤 #filthyrichvampire #paranormalromance #genevalee
