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, but I myself have only read the ones with linked reviews. There are some books I've read but haven't reviewed, these will be marked with a tulip [🌷]. The book we are currently reading will be marked with a sunflower [🌻]
