Library Dispatch #1 | Surprising New Favorite, a Book Haul & What I’m Reading Jessicas Library Card 2025-08-01 | It’s the start of something new! Welcome to the first Library Dispatch, my new weekly series where I share what I’ve been reading, what I’m picking up next, and all the fantasy, sci-fi, and horror media I’m consuming.This week, I finished Asunder (a fantasy that surprised me in the best way), finally wrapped up Nemesis Games (The Expanse #5), and spun the wheel to pick my next read. I also started Hemlock and Silver, began my journey into The Witcher series - and picked up a few new books in a mini book haul!I hope you enjoy this format. My goal is to make space for more casual, cozy conversations about whatever the week brings: new releases, surprise DNFs, current reads, or weird little genre gems I stumble into. I’m so glad you’re here!🧵 Question of the week: What’s one series you’ve always meant to start but still haven’t?What have you been reading at the end of July?Feeling quiet?

Books I Couldn’t Finish | Why I DNFed These Reads Jessicas Library Card 2025-05-22 | Today’s video is all about the books I didn’t finish this year — and why I chose to put them down. I’ll start by sharing some of the most common reasons I DNF (did not finish) a book, then walk you through 8 recent reads that just didn’t work for me.My goal with this video isn’t to bash any titles — it’s to normalize quitting a book that isn’t the right fit. Whether it’s the pacing, the writing style, or just bad timing, I truly believe it’s okay to stop reading when a book isn’t clicking.📚 Featured books include: Great Big Beautiful Life, The Ashes & the Star-Cursed King, Ancillary Justice, and more.❌ Have you DNFed anything lately?

The other was Lending a Paw by Laurie Cass, a cozy mystery featuring a bookmobile librarian and an unexpected crime-solving cat. Did these blind dates lead to a perfect match or a total disaster?
