Bookbug
Bookbug is a book club that was created by Maple and Vashti in December 2023, and I joined in December 2024, exactly a year later. Each month we read a new book, discuss it on discord, and write about it on our respective websites. This page is dedicated to my bookbug reviews, but they have also been indexed on the reviews page.
I've arranged (nearly) every book read by the bugs by month and year. The books I have read have been marked with a tulip [🌷], and the ones I have read and reviewed will contain a link to said review. The book we are currently reading will be marked with a sunflower [🌻].
