Remember, a page a day is a book a year!
Immersed by Gale Ian Tate
Levi's charity live stream gets weird when he realizes he’s unable to exit a VR horror game. Even more concerning, the AI antagonist's behaviour morphs from sinister to sensual.
“Logic is the tool of the weak when they lack the strength for honor. My race is dying, yes. But if the Vrail survive only as rapacious beasts, then the Plague of Silence has already won. We would be preserving a corpse.” – Varohk
The Void Warlord’s Blood Mate by Vivienne Myrhi

No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride... and if it occasionally gets a little heavier than what you had in mind, well... maybe chalk it up to forced consciousness expansion: Tune in, freak out, get beaten.

Are you hitting your reading goals?
I have been writing reviews behind the scenes, and keep getting distracted by reading!
Perfect Blue: Metamorphosis
Kirigoe Mima's fans are unhappy because she's updating her image. They don't want her to become unfamiliar. One is going to make sure she never changes.
He wasn't just a walking red flag; he was the bubbling vat of dye that made the flags red at the red flag factory.

"And what was a ghost but a leftover shred of ego?"
Exquisite Corpse, Poppy Z. Brite
I’ve been deep in my comfort reads the last few months, and I’m already eight books in this year! Book number nine, Immersed by Gale Ian Tate is proving to be a gripping page turner unlike anything I’ve read so far. I’ll definitely be writing a review about this.
Personal and family history are woven together to depict the emotional vulnerability and trauma that resulted from a therapist's abuse of power. In the underworld, offerings made to a mute god allow the dead to experience life once more.
Trying to squeeze out one more review before the end of the year, but I'm battling a cold and the cold is winning 🤧
