I think one or two of these are catch up but the rest are pretty recent reads! Tailchaser's Song by Tad Williams ☆☆☆☆ This was a reread for me. I originally picked this up back in my early years, I think I was maybe 12 or 13? I surprisingly remembered a lot of... Continue Reading →
Tracking My Books
So this year I've decided to embrace my weird obsession with tracking what I'm reading. I love updating Goodreads. Organizing my bookshelves is possibly one of my favorite activities (right next to reading them) and organizing my Goodreads shelves has recently been something I do to keep myself sane during my incredibly stressful mornings. Thinking... Continue Reading →
Top 5 Wednesday: Self Published Authors!
Oh boy! I love self published authors! I haven't been reading as much indie stuff as I'd like to lately but hopefully this year I'll be getting back into this. Often times self published stuff can be as polished and as amazing as a traditional writers, even more so. This is a great time to talk... Continue Reading →
Mini Reviews Vol 8!
Some of these were actually read before the last batch of mini reviews but due to the fact that the holidays ruined my ability to think they got left behind. So here we are, trying to play catch up!

Guilty Pleasure Reading : Should I feel guilty?
I've been pondering this idea of 'guilty pleasure' reading lately. I'm not sure what brought it on, possibly discussions of genre vs canon and the worth of a reader that I've seen or heard lately. The idea that someone should be ashamed or thought less of for what they read bothers me on a fundamental... Continue Reading →
Top 5 Wednesday : Favorite Retellings
Favorite Retellings. That's a broad category, and a case can be made that almost everything is a retelling of some other, older story. I'm going to try and pick a few different... maybe styles? of retellings. Boy oh boy! Top 5 is of course created by Lainey at GingerReadsLainey. And as usual these are not... Continue Reading →
Mini Reviews : Volume 6
Volume six is going to be a little lackluster I feel. For that, I'm sorry. *shame* Last week was... a blur? I don't remember much of it honestly. But here is what my Goodreads tells me I read! I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella ☆☆☆☆ Chick-lit is something I've not gotten into until... Continue Reading →
Mini-Reviews: Volume 5
