I managed to read 10 books during the 40-year period that was March, so I’m aiming for something similar in April. I’m not going to set a TBR for all 10 books (because let’s face it, I don’t want to jinx myself), but I’ve got a couple of fantasy ARCs and a few sci-fi library… Continue reading April 2020 TBR // Royalty, magic, and other worlds

So I used a mug instead. (Yes, it is one of my V. E. Schwab mugs.) The first thing… Continue reading Creating a TBR jar for 2020

Folks, I had a fast-paced December. I went to a blogging event, took part in a readathon, and celebrated Christmas and new year. I read nine books in December, which was a good high to finish the year on. The Poppy War // 4 stars // Hardback/Audiobook After putting this on hold for about 10… Continue reading December 2019 Wrap Up // Christmas, End of Yearathon, and hitting my Goodreads goal
At the beginning of 2019, I tried to predict which books would be my 5 star reads this year. Now that we’re nearing the end of the year, I want to go back and see if many (or any) of them turned out to be true. I love these kinds of “looking back” posts, because… Continue reading Five star predictions from the beginning of 2019 // Did they turn out to be true?
