let’s flip the script
instead of
❌ I don’t want to cook. I hate the time, effort and energy it takes from other things.
let’s try
✅ Cooking means I will put something healthier and fresher into my body. I feel proud when I create something. The process can be meditative and calming when I take my time.
*this post is not meant to imply that everyone should cook. Of course not. I can’t remember the last time I cooked. It’s been months because my mental health has been so poor. This is me kicking my own lazy ass on a day I know I could do it and enjoy it, if I could just get motivated.

Un bouquet d’œillets blancs 🦋
Chapter 1: Words fail
Felix always had something to say.
His brain was perpetually buzzing with questions, ignited at the discovery of every puzzle he could not solve; he burnt to understand the secret mechanisms that set the world in motion, to solve the complex equation of the human race.
“Why is the sky blue?”
“Why did Romeo not check Juliet’s pulse?”
“Why is Mum wearing long sleeves in the middle of summer?”
The answers were rarely satisfying, if spoken at all.
Talking is difficult, but the cousins make it work.
For @paracosmicat! 💜

What was your favorite read from October?
I spent the month completing the #OwnedOctober challenge @treereads hosted. I managed to fill my bingo board.
Books read:
• Happy Place by Emily Henry
• You Feel it Just Below the Ribs by Jeffrey Cranor and Janina Matthewson
• Ander & Santi Were Here by Jonny Garza Villa
• Fire Becomes Her by Rosiee Thor
• A Lady's Guide to Mischief and Mayhem by Manda Collins
• Flip the Script by Lyla Lee
• 10 Things That Never Happened by Alexis Hall
• The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams
• A Shot in the Dark by Victoria Lee
I think my favorites were Ander & Santi and 10 Things That Never Happened. Though, the latter I checked out from the library to decide if I wanted to buy it or not. I absolutely adored Sam and Jonathan's dynamic. I thought the amnesia plot was going to be weird, but it wasn't. Not sure what I'm going to start next, but I'm happy to have my tbr a little more under control.

As an avid watcher of K-dramas, Hana knows all the tropes to avoid when she finally lands a starring role in a buzzy new drama. And she can totally handle her fake co-star boyfriend who might be falling in love with her. After all, she promised the producers a contract romance, and that’s all they’re going to get from her.
But when showrunners bring on a new girl to challenge Hana’s role as main love interest—and worse, it’s someone Hana knows all too well—can  Hana fight for her position on the show while falling for her on-screen rival in real life?

Title: Flip the Script Author: Lyla Lee Genres: Contemporary, LGBTQIA, Romance Pages: 304 Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books Review Copy: Purchased Availability: Available now
Summary: The first rule of watching K-dramas: Never fall in love with the second lead.
As an avid watcher of K-dramas, Hana knows all the tropes to avoid when she finally lands a starring role in a buzzy new drama. And she can totally handle her fake co-star boyfriend, heartthrob Bryan Yoon, who might be falling in love with her. After all, she promised the TV producers a contract romance, and that’s all they’re going to get from her.
But when showrunners bring on a new lead actress to challenge Hana’s role as main love interest—and worse, it’s someone Hana knows all too well—can Hana fight for her position on the show, while falling for her on-screen rival in real life?
Review: [Content warnings: online harassment, homophobia (escalating to career retaliation), fear about coming out to parents/family/the public.]
Lyla Lee’s FLIP THE SCRIPT was an absolute blast to read on a summer evening. It’s a short, fast-paced book that I devoured in one sitting, and I’m happy to say that if you’re in the mood for some good, trope-y fun, you should give FLIP THE SCRIPT a chance. You’ve got fake dating (with an actual legal contract!), friends-to-(on-screen)-rivals-to-lovers, secret dates, holding hands while running away, love triangles, and more. As someone who enjoys K-dramas, there are several meta moments that make the book even more entertaining. (Also, I was delighted by the shoutout to Queen In-hyun’s Man in the acknowledgements, one of my all-time favorite shows.)
Hana is an up-and-coming actress in her first ever lead role, and as such she’s under a lot of pressure. That’s compounded by the fact that her parents gave up a lot to move back to South Korea from the U.S. in order to support her career, and Hana is keenly aware of the fact she isn’t nearly as established in the entertainment industry as others are, so she has much more to lose. Hana is easy to root for as she juggles her work, her fake personal life, and her real personal life.
After a lukewarm response to the premiere of her show, the production company asks Hana and her co-star, Bryan, to fake date in order to boost the ratings. Bryan is a member of the incredibly popular boy band NOVA, and Hana immediately realizes that sure, this could help the show—but it could also seriously backfire on her, depending on how Bryan’s many fans react to the news. (Small spoiler: There’s a reason online harassment is in the content warnings.) Their fake relationship also makes work complicated as Hana and Bryan aren’t always on the same page about how fake their relationship is, and that affects their performance in believable ways. There were some great character moments between these two as they got to know each other, and I really enjoyed where their relationship wound up at the end of the book.
Minjee takes longer to appear “on screen” (both within the book and within the show), but when she does, her and Hana’s relationship really starts to shine. The times they hung out together were great contrasts to the fake dates with Bryan, and it was immediately obvious (in a good way!) that Hana and Minjee were falling for each other. I really enjoyed how their friends-to-lovers relationship played out, though I do want to note that their relationship isn’t all smooth sailing—in different and more career-affecting ways than Hana’s fake relationship with Bryan.
Recommendation: Get it soon if you’re looking for a quick, entertaining romance to read. FLIP THE SCRIPT is filled with a lot of fun tropes that K-drama fans are sure to pick up on and enjoy. Hana is a great narrator, watching her fake and real relationships take their course is a great way to spend a summer day.

let’s flip the script
instead of
❌ I can’t do the hard, new thing. I’m scared of the hard, new thing. It’s out of my comfort zone. I can’t handle it. I’ll fail.
let’s try
✅ I can do the hard, new thing. I’m intelligent and resilient. I’ve done all the hard, new things in the past. Even if I failed, I tried and lived to tell the tale. I learned new things no matter what.

Un bouquet d’œillets blancs 🦋
Chapter 4: Better in stereo
Shipwreck was an art, and Adrien excelled at it.
Every cell, every thought of theirs strived to achieve complete abandon, to sink into the cushions and never resurface. Gaze lost in the immensity of their ceiling, they drifted away, farther from shore with every second ticked by.
Felix would steer the ship for them both.
