iza I'm in a huuuge reading slump rn, I got this book series in may and I'm only on the third one (so much work to do!) I'm in year 10! Good luck on your year 8 journey, it's your last year of middle school! word of advice, If you're planning on taking foreign language during year 9, which is usually the year where you can pick and choose what subjects you like, I urge you to study hard on it, once you can pick everyone who hates foreign language leaves and it's not so lazy sunday anymore, it's very fast paced and packed with new vocab. I'm seriously not trying to scare you! I know thos from personal experience since I used to take italian. Also, any book recs from you? I know that I can reccomend "where the dark stands still" by A.B. Poranek, it's so underrated and I head no-one talk about it! Disclaimer, it's a YA book with some more mature themes (not like that!!! like loss of loved ones and stuff) but it's very good. I hope you have a great school year! And don't forget to grind 😛
