Grace Draven characters: MMC: yikes. not winning any beauty contests, eh? FMC: I’ve never met sentient excrement before this is a real treat *proceed to fall madly in love in the most adorable, respectful bone deep fashion* Let’s fuckin goooooo #booksky #audiobooksky

The only thing more unpleasant than logging onto a meeting at 630am is learning upon joining that you were mistaken and the meeting actually started at 6. So now not only are you very tired, you’re also very late.

Ok reporting back on Out on a Limb: While tone and dialogue were cute, the “I needed this baby to give my life direction/meaning so thank god that unprotected bone I had with a relative stranger worked out for me” of it all makes me want to punch a wall. And the epilogue made me nauseous. Ew.

Any of my fellow theater kids do the Hamilton libretto audiobook? It’s narrated by Mariska Hargitay for some reason and let me tell you, having Olivia Benson telling me about Lin-Manuel Miranda telling me about Alexander Hamilton was absolutely wild #booksky #audiobooksky

God I hate pregnancy and babies but I’m bringing this one off the DNF shelf for a second chance cuz I guess i don’t learn?? Wish me luck. #booksky #audiobooksky

Every 10 years, monster visits what to him is basically an animal shelter and pick out a new pet. Is thrilled to find he can bone this one. And it’s 17 HOURS. what the fuck am i reading? #audiobooksky #booksky

Which one of you hos made me read Where the Dark Stands Still?????? 😭😭😭😭 Thank you! (Excellent solo narration by Ola Forman. If I’m a slut for anything it’s culturally appropriate pronunciations 🤤) #booksky #audiobooksky

::steps out and closes door. quietly reassesses all choices that led me here. drives home in complete silence::

Oh my god you guys everything is awful, but this is the sweetest, coziest little queer romance and I absolutely needed this. I think you should get into it, it’ll help. #booksky #audiobooksky

My audiobook and I are enjoying lunch at the Folger Shakespeare Library’s Quill & Crumb cafe. “What audiobook,” you ask? Don’t worry about it. #booksky

Not at all related to that bloated orange idiot making hateful and nonsensical proclamations, it feels like an excellent time to recommended these gorgeous adorable queer romances featuring trans characters. The first is good, the second is better and narration on both audios is excellent.

😭🥹 oh my heart

Sorry, I can’t. I’ve got a hot bubble bath, a great audiobook, a new deep conditioner, a fresh face mask and a yeti full of champagne. I’m busy.

Let’s see where this new year takes me TikTok: 39,700 Instagram: 281 Bluesky: 164 YouTube: n/a

I read whatever Libby tells me I’m going to read

Y’all ever read something so good it pisses you off because you instantly understand how thoroughly your time has been wasted by all the other books that were not on this level??? One chapter in and im all the way sat. (Also Imani’s narration is fantastic) #booksky #audiobooksky

White women asking to keep politics out of BookTok aren't just seeking comfort—they're preserving systems of oppression. Read my latest post on BookTok, reading and white supremacy. mareas.binderybooks.com/item/GPVS92O...

Just double checking, if I wear my tall uggs in public the youths will destroy me, yes?

I know im old because I keep tapping the damn comment icon to read the comments 😭😭😭 omg i just can’t learn

Treat yourself. Audio was fantastic. #booksky

I had to manually turn on my STEM feed option. TikTok said “we’ve seen your likes. your dumbass doesn’t need this.”

It is a fact of the universe that on the one evening a year when you get dressed up to go to a work event with your husband, your lace will refuse to melt, your stockings will snag and your eyeliner wings will never match. Crossing my fingers for dim lighting and strong martinis.

I accept no criticism of When Among Crows. Shut up, it’s perfect. And the audio production was incredible.

Literally if he’s not sickeningly down bad what is the point

It is shocking how often I get inquiry emails at victoriasLISTENING and I have to ask “is this in audio format? My platform spotlights audiobooks.” and they’re like “oh. No. “ 🫠🫠🫠

Y’all ListenWithBritt isn’t here. Is this my chance to rebrand myself as ListenWithVictoria and make a run for her throne? ( #booktok shenanigans)

Obligatory “I’ve seen enough hentai to know where this is going” Side note, Lessa Lamb and Jack Calihan are narrating the absolute fuck out of this. #booksky #audiobooksky

Hey if the Barbie movie didn’t get you to leave that idiot, maybe this incredible book can. Happy reading , #booksky This was one of the most impressive debuts I’ve ever read and the audio production was frigging fantastic.

Just remembered Qimir never mistakes Osha for Mae (or vice versa) UNLIKE her actual Jedi master, Sol ???!! “To be loved is to be seen” and all that 😭😭
