trace all my books [2021]

 I feel like I'm reading all the time but don't feel like a reader anymore. It's all either fanfiction or fluffy romance books and that's life. 2021, babeyy!

Also, note! I joined Storygraph for 2022. I've never used a book thinger before (and I already burned out of reviewing the one book I've read so far this year) so who knows what will happen. But it could change this game a bit.
