are reading challenges ruining reading? & the rise of book social media apps @2youstories

2you stories I spent the last year experimenting by not setting a reading target. This trial run took an interesting turn, proving some of my initial guesses as to what would happen with my reading habits, while disproving many of them too. Hope you enjoy this little look into how recent trends to use book tracking social media apps and the growth in various 'reading challenges' may or may not be impacting our reading behaviours!

opening the cafe from legends & lattes

2you stories 2025-09-23 | There is no doubt that Travis Baldree wrote Legends & Lattes for all the coffee and baking enthusiasts out there. When I first read this book and read through all the mouth-watering descriptions of Thimble's bakes, I thought to myself... challenge accepted. This was such a fun challenge and trust me the kitchen smelled *divine*, just like we were in Viv's cafe :)

Deep End by Ali Hazelwood (Summary from Storygraph)
Scarlett Vandermeer is swimming upstream. A Junior at Stanford and a student-athlete who specializes in platform diving, Scarlett prefers to keep her head down, concentrating on getting into med school and on recovering from the injury that almost ended her career. She has no time for relationships—at least, that’s what she tells herself.
Swim captain, world champion, all-around aquatics golden boy, Lukas Blomqvist thrives on discipline. It’s how he wins gold medals and breaks records: complete focus, with every stroke. On the surface, Lukas and Scarlett have nothing in common. Until a well-guarded secret slips out, and everything changes.
So they start an arrangement. And as the pressure leading to the Olympics heats up, so does their relationship. It was supposed to be just a temporary, mutually satisfying fling. But when staying away from Lukas becomes impossible, Scarlett realizes that her heart might be treading into dangerous water…

Forgive me for being a hater this month! If you liked any of the books I didn't, or hated the ones that I did, I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Honestly there is nothing more fun that getting into heated discussions about book opinions sometimes...

What did you read this month? This girly is always looking to add more books to an already unattainable TBR list ✌️

#2 A few days in Toronto, seeing friends, trying new restaurants

2you stories 2023-06-10 | last august, we had a lovely short trip in toronto visiting our friends
we stopped by the st. lawrence market, distillery district, eaton centre, eataly, ehwa bar, and tenon vegan sushi
there's something so exhaustingly enjoyable about having a week packed with social plans, but rest assured we slept like the dead after getting back home lol
