This is ridiculous, I'm going to open with that. I hate TBRs and I'm terrible at them. Yet I want to try. I want to 'take' the NEWTS later this year and I want to... pass? and have a magical career - at least in my head. I think quarantine has broken me. I'm not... Continue Reading →
Series Thoughts: Fruits Basket
Everyone should be impressed - I have managed to finish a series. This is unusual for me, especially during such a stressful time as the past 4 months have been. I got lucky and was able to get most of the series through my library and the last 5 volumes my friend let me borrow... Continue Reading →
Series Thoughts: Steeple #1-5
Giant Days is by far my favorite comic book series that I’ve kept up. Even when cutting my book budget down to the minimum I saved the money for each volume that came out. So when I spied a new John Allison series starting I jumped on board without even looking at the... Continue Reading →
Thoughts: Exit Strategy by Martha Wells
I'm terrible at keeping up with series. Unless they're a comic series where it's a fast read you can bet I hardly ever do finish it. I am more than happy to admit that's because I don't want to be disappointed by follow up books. If I enjoy a story I don't want to read... Continue Reading →
Comics & Manga Wrap-up for January 2020
Most of what I read this month was Fruits Basket, though I picked up a few other things in my down time between reads. I also decided to DNF a series over the course of a month, ah well! I’ll start off with the single volume I read, Volume 5 of A Bride’s Story... Continue Reading →
January Haul/Unhaul
As always my goal for my Physical TBR is to knock it way down. I’ve got 25+ years of books collected throughout my house and I’m still bringing stuff in on the regular. I’m certainly of no delusion that I’ll ever be near a 0 physical TBR but I want to have mainly things I’m... Continue Reading →
Bout of Books 24 TBR!
So Bout of Books is happening again this next week and I figured, why not! I have a few books left on my 'recently acquired' list I want to read and I can certainly pick out a few books on my shelf. I don't know that I'll have time or be able to do the... Continue Reading →
Romance Roundup
So I’ve definitely need the happy endings you will always find in a romance novel (and yes, I’m a member of that camp, it’s not romance if it’s not a happy ending). So I’ve got a few that I’ve read that I thought I’d highlight and talk about. As far as series... Continue Reading →
October & November Favorites
So I’m going to be 100% with you here. I really just want to talk about a few stand out books from the past two months. I can’t think of good theme to link them all into besides the theme of ‘Good God Sarah Loved These’ so that is what we’re going to use. ... Continue Reading →
Recent Favorites – Highly Recommended Novellas
I’ve finally started going through my long list of ignored Tor.com novellas. I got caught on a long, and mostly frustrating train of library books for the bulk of the year and now that I’m strictly monitoring that I’ve found time for more of what I have set back! So let me... Continue Reading →
