Hello readers! This month I managed to finish 3 books. Weirdly enough, they were all about plants and feature sapphic characters.
What did you read this month? I hope everyone found a new favorite book. Can you believe we are already half way through the year? I feel like the year has been very long and short at the same time.

Eat the Ones You Love was an interesting story about a sentient plant. It’s a much darker version of Little Shop of Horrors. I liked a lot about this book, but I also disliked a lot about it.
I didn’t like the ending for one. I didn’t really like the way the murder scenes were told. We got some interesting lore about this plant, but it wasn’t deep enough for me. I’d love to know more of the origin.
Let me know if you’ve read this one! I’d love to know what you think.


I read This Poison Heart and really enjoyed it a lot. It follows Briseis, who is adopted. Her biological aunt dies and leaves her this giant mansion in the woods.
She goes there and learns a lot about herself as she also has plant powers.
Book two was just not as good as book one. I felt that it was rushed. I wanted more character development like we got in book one. I can’t go into too much detail without spoiling book one. The pacing is much faster than book one, which isn’t a good thing.
I’d love to read more from her in the future. I really hope that her other books are like the first one in this duology because it really stood out to me.
Happy blogging and bookish adventures! 📚🦒✨
