Happy Friday, friends! We’ve made it another week. Since my bookstagram anniversary is coming up, I thought it’d be fun to reflect on the last year, and everything I’ve learned and observed. So grab a cup of tea, get cozy, and let’s chat!

Emergency Contact meets Moxie in this cheeky and searing novel that unpacks just how complicated new love can get…when you fall for your enemy.
Eliza Quan is the perfect candidate for editor in chief of her school paper. That is, until ex-jock Len DiMartile decides on a whim to run against her. Suddenly her vast qualifications mean squat because inexperienced Len—who is tall, handsome, and male—just seems more like a leader.
When Eliza’s frustration spills out in a viral essay, she finds herself inspiring a feminist movement she never meant to start, caught between those who believe she’s a gender equality champion and others who think she’s simply crying misogyny.
Amid this growing tension, the school asks Eliza and Len to work side by side to demonstrate civility. But as they get to know one another, Eliza feels increasingly trapped by a horrifying realization—she just might be falling for the face of the patriarchy himself.

Happy Saturday, friends! While we’re waiting to get our mosaic broken hearts re-shattered by Red (Taylor’s Version), and Adele’s 30, Caitlyn and I figured it would be fun to compile a little book recs post for y’all based on your favorite comfort movie! This is the first post in a series, so keep your eyes peeled for other future recommendations.

When I started working on this post, Cossette asked me, “How did you get into reading?” and when I think about it, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t reading. Literature was such a huge part of my childhood that in my mind, the two are intertwined. As a kid, I would constantly beg my mom to take me to the library or a bookstore whenever we had the time, and once she got me in there I never wanted to leave.

Read moreWelcome to Little Bridge, one of the smallest, most beautiful islands in the Florida Keys.
Jo Wright always swore she’d never step foot on Little Bridge Island—not as long as her nemesis, bestselling author Will Price, is living there.
Then Jo’s given an offer she can’t refuse: an all-expense-paid trip to speak and sign at the island’s first-ever book festival.
Even though arrogant Will is the last person Jo wants to see, she could really use the festival’s more-than-generous speaking fee. She’s suffering from a crippling case of writer’s block on the next instalment of her bestselling children’s series, and her father needs financial help as well.
Then Jo hears that Will is off-island on the set of the film of his next book. Hallelujah!
But when she arrives on Little Bridge, Jo is in for a shock: Will is not only at the book festival, but seems genuinely sorry for his past actions—and more than willing not only to make amends but prove to Jo that he’s a changed man.
Things seem to be looking up—until disaster strikes, causing Jo to wonder: Do any of us ever really know anyone?
Read moreIn an empire on the brink of war . . .
Ahn is no one, with no past and no family.
Altan is a lost heir, his future stolen away as a child.
When they meet, Altan sees in Ahn a path to reclaiming the throne. Ahn sees a way to finally unlock her past and understand her arcane magical abilities.
But they may have to pay a far deadlier price than either could have imagined.
New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins, writing as Erin Sterling, casts a spell with a spine-tingling romance full of wishes, witches, and hexes gone wrong.
Nine years ago, Vivienne Jones nursed her broken heart like any young witch would: vodka, weepy music, bubble baths…and a curse on the horrible boyfriend. Sure, Vivi knows she shouldn’t use her magic this way, but with only an “orchard hayride” scented candle on hand, she isn’t worried it will cause him anything more than a bad hair day or two.
That is until Rhys Penhallow, descendent of the town’s ancestors, breaker of hearts, and annoyingly just as gorgeous as he always was, returns to Graves Glen, Georgia. What should be a quick trip to recharge the town’s ley lines and make an appearance at the annual fall festival turns disastrously wrong. With one calamity after another striking Rhys, Vivi realizes her silly little Ex Hex may not have been so harmless after all.
Suddenly, Graves Glen is under attack from murderous wind-up toys, a pissed off ghost, and a talking cat with some interesting things to say. Vivi and Rhys have to ignore their off the charts chemistry to work together to save the town and find a way to break the break-up curse before it’s too late.

Hello friends! I shared my theatreathon TBR last month, and so I thought it’d be fun to share what I ended up reading after all!

Wow. I literally cannot believe that it’s the end of September. Time really is a construct…but! With the end of September comes the end of the Theatreathon, and I thought that since I did a TBR post, it only makes sense that I did a wrap up post!

Hi, hello lovely friends! As the weather goes warmer or colder depending on where you’re at in the world, another month has come to an end. This month was an exciting one for us, as it marked our first year anniversary of blogging (yay!) and our first month of being entirely self hosted (double yay!). It was also a very exciting reading month for us, as all three of us here at teatimelit were participating in the theatreaton! We hope you had a lovely month, and keep reading to see what we read!
This month Caitlyn read 35 books, Cossette read 28 books, and Mary read 7 books.
