What's the next backlist book on your TBR? 📖
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm a huge fan of reading backlist books and this year, that has primarily come in the form of rereading my favorites 🫶🏼 I've finished my rereads of the Shades of Magic, Shadow and Bone, and The Hunger Games series - and I'm continuing my rereads of Six of Crows, Renegades, Strange the Dreamer, and All the Stars and Teeth 🙀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Next up on my backlist TBR:
 ☕️ Legends & Lattes (FINALLY - been waiting for this library hold for what feels like a thousand years)
♾️ Stealing Infinity (I received a copy of this from Entangled but it's been sitting on my shelf far too long.. it's time to dive in)
🐍 The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (after my THG reread, I'm ready to jump into this to prep for the upcoming film)
🎤 On the Come Up (I started craving more Angie Thomas after Concrete Rose so this was the natural next step)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you read any of these? 👆🏼

For me, it was WE ARE ALL SO GOOD AT SMILING by @ambsmcbride 📖 I read this in one sitting and cried crocodile tears through 80% of it 🐊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This book - whew - it's heavy and haunting and simultaneously so beautiful and hopeful ✨ I've truly never read anything quite like it and I know I'll want to revisit it time and again, especially when I find myself struggling with the negative voices in my head 🤎 (Please note the content warnings before beginning your journey into this incredible story)

Have you read this book or is it on your TBR? ☕️

Recommend your favorite mysteries! 🔎 My mom ca Recommend your favorite mysteries! 🔎

My mom can confirm that when I was younger, I was constantly gobbling up mystery books 📖 As I got older, I found that so many books labeled as “mysteries” for YA and adults were more like thrillers - focusing on suspense and fear, rather than sleuthing (not my jam) 🙈

Now, I’m realizing that I must have just been looking in the wrong places for good mysteries, because they’re definitely out there 🙌🏼 I absolutely devoured The London Séance Society - enjoying the way it blended historical mystery, a healthy dose of suspense, and wild fantastical elements into just over 350 pages 🔮

Have you read this one yet? 🕯️

Ever since I finished my reread of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, I've found it so hard to get into anything else and all I want to do is just drop my entire TBR and continue rereading the rest of the Grishaverse 🫶🏼

Y'all, the S&B obsession is so real (again) for me right now and I don't know if tomorrow's premiere will help soothe me or make things even worse 🙈 Oh, who am I kidding? 😅 It’s gonna make me a thousand times more insufferable 🤷🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've never been in a reading slump and I've only had a book hangover a couple of times, so I'm thinking that continuing with comfort reads of the same world/genre is going to be the most beneficial 📚 Off to open up Six of Crows next 🖤

Our Stay at Creek’s Edge Apartments

This post is in partnership with NTS Development and Creek’s Edge at Stony Point Apartments. As always, all opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting those that support The Espresso Edition.

I test drove the Creek’s Edge at Stony Point Apartments so you wouldn’t have to, and here’s my full review of this luxurious community.

Hello RVA, and welcome to my crib. Or really, welcome to the gorgeous apartments I staycationed at this past week. If you follow my Instagram, you may have seen my stories about this complex and this stunning space I got to call “home” for 48 hours.

Honestly, it’s hard for me to even know where to begin when it comes to this review, because I just had the most wonderful stay from beginning to end. I was welcomed with smiles and Starbucks the moment I entered the leasing office. Yes, they literally have a Starbucks machine in their lobby, along with hot water for tea and more.

I got a tour of their clubhouse (shown in the two pictures below) that includes a pool table, shuffleboard, a kitchenette, and a spacious seating area if you want to study, work, or hang out with friends and watch TV. There’s a work and printing lounge, a conference room (also perfect to host game night), and a massive outdoor pool with an infinity edge. Creek’s Edge offers a gym with a plethora of equipment, and they have a grilling station by their pool – perfect for summer BBQ’s.

They took me on a golf cart ride to tour the neighborhood, and I noticed their car wash station (yep, a full-on space for washing your car and airing up your tires). I even saw the cutest puppy (a double doodle!!!), along with all the gorgeous apartments.

The model unit I stayed in overnight at Creek’s Edge literally took my breath away.

The decor was all vibrant shades of purple and green with the most magnificent textures and greenery throughout. The spacious living room was perfect for wine night with my girlfriends – which is exactly what I did. We laughed, drank rosé and pinot noir, ate popcorn, and laughed until our stomachs ached. It was honestly the best time ever, and we have plenty of photos to prove it! You could also walk from the living room to the outside patio and enjoy the sound of birds chirping in the day and crickets at night.

The guest bedroom has a massive window that just poured in sunlight! I loved every moment of that, because bright, natural light is incredibly important for my mental health and taking ideal photos for my blog! This room had a giant closet, as well as a door that led to the guest bathroom. I was shocked at the size of the guest bath. It not only had a full counter and bathtub, but plenty of space in case you need to change clothes.

From the other side of the bathroom, you can walk into the hall and across to the laundry room. Down the hallway is the master bedroom, filled with rich, royal purples and the most luxurious furniture. I loved this room because it was calming in comparison to the bright guest bedroom. It also had a large closet and its own bathroom – complete with a jacuzzi tub! Yes please!

I can’t speak highly enough about this community, their apartments, and how nice everything was. From the time spent poolside with my friends, to the girl’s wine night I was able to enjoy in the apartment and patio, to the overnight stay with my husband and the walk across the street to Stony Point Fashion Park for breakfast (yep, my favorite mall in RVA is walking distance from the apartments), the entire stay was magnificent. I 100% recommend looking into living at Creek’s Edge if you’re considering trading spaces in RVA or if you’re moving to RVA!

I’d love to be there on a rainy weekend and just getting all snuggled up. I like that they also had a full kitchen area. I know some apartment complexes don’t, which would feel so strange to me! Thank you for sharing another review!

What's the next backlist book on your TBR? 📖
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm a huge fan of reading backlist books and this year, that has primarily come in the form of rereading my favorites 🫶🏼 I've finished my rereads of the Shades of Magic, Shadow and Bone, and The Hunger Games series - and I'm continuing my rereads of Six of Crows, Renegades, Strange the Dreamer, and All the Stars and Teeth 🙀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Next up on my backlist TBR:
 ☕️ Legends & Lattes (FINALLY - been waiting for this library hold for what feels like a thousand years)
♾️ Stealing Infinity (I received a copy of this from Entangled but it's been sitting on my shelf far too long.. it's time to dive in)
🐍 The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (after my THG reread, I'm ready to jump into this to prep for the upcoming film)
🎤 On the Come Up (I started craving more Angie Thomas after Concrete Rose so this was the natural next step)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you read any of these? 👆🏼

This book - whew - it's heavy and haunting and simultaneously so beautiful and hopeful ✨ I've truly never read anything quite like it and I know I'll want to revisit it time and again, especially when I find myself struggling with the negative voices in my head 🤎 (Please note the content warnings before beginning your journey into this incredible story)

Aaaaand now I want to enjoy all of these in the near future 🤤 I normally always have the first three on hand, but ya girl wants to try making bubble tea at home and it's been a hot second since I've had a bourbon or whiskey 🤷🏻‍♀️

Recommend your favorite mysteries! 🔎 My mom ca Recommend your favorite mysteries! 🔎

My mom can confirm that when I was younger, I was constantly gobbling up mystery books 📖 As I got older, I found that so many books labeled as “mysteries” for YA and adults were more like thrillers - focusing on suspense and fear, rather than sleuthing (not my jam) 🙈

Now, I’m realizing that I must have just been looking in the wrong places for good mysteries, because they’re definitely out there 🙌🏼 I absolutely devoured The London Séance Society - enjoying the way it blended historical mystery, a healthy dose of suspense, and wild fantastical elements into just over 350 pages 🔮

Have you read this one yet? 🕯️

That’s just scratching the surface, friends 😂 I posted over 100 spoiler-filled stories to my close friends list during premiere day as I binged all 8 episodes, so to say I had a lot of thoughts would be an understatement 🙈

No matter what I thought though (positive or negative), I support this cast and Leigh with my whole heart 🤎 So, I’ll be continuing to stream the season like crazy to get that Crows spin-off/season 3 (and I suggest you do too)! 👌🏼

How do YOU cure a book hangover? 🥴 ⠀⠀⠀⠀ How do YOU cure a book hangover? 🥴
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ever since I finished my reread of the Shadow and Bone trilogy, I've found it so hard to get into anything else and all I want to do is just drop my entire TBR and continue rereading the rest of the Grishaverse 🫶🏼 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Y'all, the S&B obsession is so real (again) for me right now and I don't know if tomorrow's premiere will help soothe me or make things even worse 🙈 Oh, who am I kidding? 😅 It’s gonna make me a thousand times more insufferable 🤷🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've never been in a reading slump and I've only had a book hangover a couple of times, so I'm thinking that continuing with comfort reads of the same world/genre is going to be the most beneficial 📚 Off to open up Six of Crows next 🖤

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
GOSH, I could not be more excited for season 2 of the show to premiere on Thursday (I even rebooked a dentist appointment for this - and gave myself the day off work 🙈) And I think I’m somehow even more excited since Daisy Head gave me a shoutout on the Netflix IG page and Ben Barnes replied to my Q&A comment on Reddit 😱 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You all know Genya would be the first on my guest list, but of course, I'd also want to invite Alina, Jesper & Wylan, Tamar, and probably Inej as well 🙌🏼 And yes, yes, I'd love The Darkling to be there (if he can... behave himself? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Or maybe even if he can’t 😏)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you're looking for all the Grishaverse goodness, peep my blog for everything from merch (like my Sun Saint candle from @janzywaxco ☀️) to themed drinks (the Jurda Parem is my favorite 🍹) to a full dissection of The Darkling's character 🖤 And make sure to let me know what you're most excited for this season! 🫶🏼

The last one I read and enjoyed was One Dark Window 🪟 The last one that absolutely did NOT live up was The Roughest Draft 👎🏼 The next on my radar is Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries, so I hope I wind up loving it! 🤎
