The first #book I've bought in 2026 goes right to the #ToBeRead pile, since it's a sequel, and I didn't finish reading the first book yet, but it's "The Ether Witch (2)" by Delemhach. I didn't even realize the second book came out months ago, but it was on sale on the Kindle store for $1, and I had credits, so I nabbed it.
Anyone else got more than a #foot of #books on their #ToBeRead pile?

Sommerzeit ist Lesezeit!☀️ Und deshalb gibt es den ganzen Sommer über spannende Lektüretipps📚 vom Institutsteam. Heute starten wir mit einer Leseempfehlung von Serena Obkircher:

💧Titel: The Water Cure
✍️Autorin: Sophie Mackintosh
📖Klappentext: You are a girl. Your body is vulnerable. Men will break it if they can - and out there, they absolutely can. Suffering will prepare you for the worst. The cure is nothing compared to what you've been spared in the sickness. It takes a lot of love to hurt you like this. Now, come outside. It's time to play the drowning game. Imagine three sisters raised on an island, taught to fear the outside world and its men. And imagine the men who come to find them: three strangers washed up by the sea, bringing desire and destruction in their wake...

#BurnWhileReading #ToBeRead

It never fails. I place a bunch of #library holds on #ebooks I want to read and sort my #ToBeRead list based on the wait times. Then something I'm really looking forward to from lower on the list suddenly becomes available weeks ahead of schedule.

Oh, no! Whatever shall I do?

Anyway, I just started #Oathbound!
