june 2024 TBR 🌼 tackling my physical books

[@love.lauren...]

I SEE JINX FROM LoL/ARCANE in the background!!! I am so genuinely excited that you're loving Part of Your World I LOVED IT SO MUCH you're making me want to re-read it immediately 🥺 I liked Yours Truly just as much if not more, so I hope you have success with that (and all your other reads, most of which are either on or I will be now ADDING to my TBR!!) 🥰

[@itsmimiduong]

YESSSSSSS JINX. She's also my main ADC in LoL too 😂 I was so lucky that I hit her on those gacha boxes... the Demon Slayer ones? Not so much 💀 AHH, I'm so excited. I'm about to start it (only 4 days left before I have to go return it!!) You enjoying means I'll definitely be enjoying it!! I can't wait! I feel like this month is mostly me catching up on some more popular new releases 😂

[@love.lauren...]

@@itsmimiduong My main ADC was Caitlyn back in the day! But after watching Arcane it made me want to play Jinx hahah, gachas can either be the luckiest day of your life or make you want to cry ahhaa 💀 Honestly same, despite Emily Henry being my fave I STILL haven't started Funny Story because I'm procrastinating it, and I also have Five Broken Blades, and other new releases I need to tackle, maybe you reading them will finally push me to start them 😝

[@itsmimiduong]

@@love.lauren... honestly, it's not an ADC world. If you're not a tank it's over 💀I'm tired of being bullied as an ADC so I no longer play it LOL We have similar books on our TBR then!! It'll be my 3rd Emily Henry book 😍 I'll keep you updated

[@JayMoReads]

So excited for all your thoughts on your June reads!!!

[@itsmimiduong]

Hoping for a SOLID reading month; especially with all these physical books!!

[@JayMoReads]

@@itsmimiduong I feel you! I have a little bit more down time so I’m hoping to read more since I have so many fun reads.

[@jesisreading]

yayy!! I was hoping you were doing a reading vlog on Not in Love. Release day is so close I feel so impatient 😂😭 I think I'm going to pick up A Dawn of Onyx next time I'm at the bookstore because I've been hearing so many good things about that series and I feel like I have to read it soon!

[@itsmimiduong]

ME TOO!! I'm so impatient for it 😭 Anticipating it to be 4.5 ⭐+. A Dawn of Onyx is a TRUE slowburn, with reasonable enemies to lovers. I actually originally picked it up for the spice, and there was barely any 😂 Picked up for the spice, stayed for the plot ✨ I'm glad it was my first high(?) fantasy book. The author really did a good job for those who are new to the genre!!

[@jesisreading]

@@itsmimiduong ooooo I LOVE slowburn and I LOVE enemies to lovers! I'm definitely upping that on my priority tbr!

[@JayMoReads]

Girl guess where I went today?!….COSTCO 😂 and I just so happen to look at the books! They had the Five Broken Blades and I’d wanted that one since you talked about it and reading the synopsis and I was sold 😂. I considered king of sloth but i wanted something more intriguing

[@JayMoReads]

I feel like when it comes to POVs it depends on the book and story that’s happening. Some at better knowing their thoughts in person and some times the story is better in 3rd.

[@itsmimiduong]

I agree! I mostly blame my small brain for not realizing when they switch perspective. Especially if it's written in ONE perspective for multiple chapters, and suddenly it's the other lead's. Then I'm like 🥴 because I usually skim the title of the chapters 🤣

[@JayMoReads]

@@itsmimiduong oh man 😂😂 yea nahh I’m watching everything. I blame it on my reading too many thrillers 😭 I be on edge for a while!

[@ashleybeckrreads_]

I have so many thoughts 😂 here’s my word vomit I was typing as I was watching lol: Omg I’m so excited to see your game in future tbr videos!! It’s so unique, can’t wait. “I love an unhinged man” lmaooo OMG THE SHOUT OUT 😭 you are the sweetest! I CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT YOU THINK OF YOURS TRULY AHHHHHH. Ok so I own the Percy Jackson series but I haven’t read them and defs watched the new series 😂 oops. The show is super cute! Funny Story is so effing good 😩 I hope you love it. “the same genre can hit different” 👏🏻 so true. Did you hear Costco isn’t going to sell books anymore as of 2025?! Crazy! I wasn’t super convinced about five broken blades before your video and now I want to so bad 😂 LOVED THIS VID

[@itsmimiduong]

AHHH, I don't know why it took me so long to get a notification for this 😩 HAHA, sometimes I need a book that is a little wild because that's what books are supposed to be for. 😂AND OF COURSE! I always do my best to note down where I get my recommendations from so I can also share with other people 🥹 I mentioned this before but your videos are 🔥I feel like I always know exactly what I'll get in the book because you're able to eloquently put together the synopsis!! I finished Yours Truly in like 24hrs. I have NO idea how Just for the Summer is going to top it. I absolutely adore Jacob and Bri 🥹 Did I give it 4.99 rating because I didn't get some filthy smut between the two of them? maybe.... 🤣I felt like the Percy Jackson series is enjoyable even though it's my first time experiencing as an adult?? It's definitely well written so if you're ever in the mood for fantasy adventure, I'd highly recommend it. OMG. YEAH I SAW THAT 😩COSTCO PLEASE, WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO FOR YOU TO KEEP SELLING BOOKS. I need those cheap prices for my wallet 😭

[@BonnieNicoleWrites]

There is No Ethan sounds really good but also quite possibly maddening. lol I'm very curious to hear your review after you read it! Enjoy the Abby Jimenez! I love her books.

[@itsmimiduong]

I haven't gotten started on it yet, but the premise is sooo intriguing. I'll definitely be giving an update on one of the vlogs that I'll probably do this month 🧡 Abby Jimenez -- I can already tell she'll be one of my favorite. Her writing, and the characters 💯 TRUE character development in Part of Your World. The characters are SO loveable. I'm already loving the duo in Yours Truly!!

[@BonnieNicoleWrites]

@@itsmimiduong I'll keep my eyes open for your vlog! Yes!! I loved the character development in Part of Your World. So good!

[@JayMoReads]

We love a good forbidden romance 🤭😂

[@itsmimiduong]

It's the spiciest 😍

[@JayMoReads]

@@itsmimiduong yesss 😂

[@JayMoReads]

I have goldfish brain too when it comes to these books 😂😂 ppl can say what they want I will still be shocked!

[@itsmimiduong]

Right?? But to be honest, it mostly has to do with it being on my TBR for an unreasonable amount of time 😂

[@JayMoReads]

@@itsmimiduong yea no one has time to remember all that 😂😂 I buy books and forget why I bought them and what the synopsis was

[@dvnelght1516]

Wow your poor husband, someone needs to bring that bird to justice ⚖ !!! I'm not sure about watching the Percy Jackson adaptation, though, I heard that it doesn't quite live up to the hype 😥

[@itsmimiduong]

We have cats... WHAT ARE THEY DOING?!

[@liddoturon]

ahhhhh thank you so much for the shoutout! you are the best! i can't wait to see what you think about skin of a sinner 🤭🖤

[@itsmimiduong]

Of course!! Like I said, you're the queen of dark romance for me 🥰 I actually started reading Skin of a Sinner and I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far 👀 But I did want to smack Roman in the back of the head for how long (not really) it took for him to tell her that he didn't abandon her -- it's just that he got taken away 😩

[@liddoturon]

@@itsmimiduong LOL girl same!! I'm so glad your enjoying it 🥰

[@itsmimiduong]

@@liddoturon Also I was supposed to start the Percy Jackson #2 before this but I was like, I WANT SOMETHING SPICY. And the way that Skin of a Sinner actually mentioned the Percy Jackson series in the book was just 💀 It's like they know what my priorities should've been.

[@Chronicallyd]

Yes!!! I’m excited to hear your thoughts on Part of Your World! 💖 Totally agree about how Dark Romance needs to be done well. Cause if it’s not, I’m ready to fight the ML ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ The Disney+ Percy Jackson show is so good! I hope you enjoy the books and show as much as I do ☺️.

[@itsmimiduong]

Part of Your World rocked my world. I honestly didn't think I'd like it in the first chapter because he has a beard. 💀 I'm not a beard girly but MAN IS HE THE SWEETEST GOLD RETRIEVER BOY. I ended up THOROUGHLY enjoying the book with the plot/character development. I started Yours Truly, and I'm already obsessed with the to leads 😭 Yeah, if dark romance is just being absuive, I'm not into it. But if the ML is just a little chaotic sadist, that's ok 🫢 I enjoyed the first one! High hopes -- my husband said Annabeth was going to get together with Grover and I 💀I told him I was gonna drop the book if it's true. Luckily, it isn't 🤣

[@Chronicallyd]

@@itsmimiduong Just For The Summer has a golden retriever boy too, and I can’t handle how cute it is. If you can get your hands on it, it is such a good read! The absolute greenest of flags kind of guy. 💀💀💀 high key I’m going to starting telling everyone that too now 😂
