Review| A Sea of Unspoken Things – Adrienne Young

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

After reading and loving Spells of Forgetting last year, I’ve decided that I need to read everything Adrienne Young publishes or has published. A Sea of Unspoken Things is her 2025 release, and I’m very grateful to have had an eARC. Today I want to talk about this book and what I thought!

A big thank you to Netgalley and Delacorte Press for providing me with an eARC to read and review. This doesn’t affect my opinion in any way.

WWW Wednesday #78

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

It’s Wednesday, so time for a new WWW Wednesday to talk about my reading progress and plans. I really love these posts and talking more about what I’m reading before the monthly wrap up. Even if my reading plans change I like thinking about what I’m going to read!

So it’s time for my next WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:

  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s topic is Bookish Goals for 2025, however I already shared my 2025 bookish goals. So today (like every year haha), I will do a part 2 of the topic of last week; Most Anticipated Books Releasing in the First Half of 2025.
