I know the old adage technically says you’re not meant to judge a book by its cover . . . but surely you can all forgive me based on the fact that these covers are stunning, and it’s clearly working in their favor. There are so many ways for books to find their way onto […]
So we’re just jumping right in and airing all my dirty laundry right off the bat. I confess that I am really good at walking into bookstores and walking out with books, but less good at the actual reading of all the books. Does it count that I start with good intentions? Obviously, I wholeheartedly […]
In making this post, I have discovered my most concerning fatal flaw: I apparently don’t really discover new authors I love all that often! I rely all too much on the tried and true. Which, of course, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with. I already know that I am going to read and love everything by […]
A new year means new releases! Well, technically there are always new releases. But in January, your previous TBR no longer counts, and you can safely start piling up new books completely unhindered by your questionable past decisions. I’m fairly certain that’s how it works. You know, just like calories from Christmas cookies don’t actually […]
It is—allegedly—a new year already, and you know what that means: fresh sacrifices to Cthulu . . . errrr . . . I mean, looking back on the previous year’s reads! Which may or may not include eldritch horrors. My goal last year was 100 books, and I blew it out of the water with […]
According to Goodreads, I have 1,180 items on my Want to Read shelf. I can’t tell if that’s inflated (me adding books that I want to consider later) or if that’s actually undercutting it. Y’know, because my laziness wins sometimes and convinces me I will definitely remember that book I saw and want to read […]
Spooky season is a bit of a conundrum for me, because I don’t read a whole lot of horror books (I’m a huuuuge scaredy cat), but I absolutely love all the spooky vibes. So what is a poor, chickeny bookwyrm to do? Make their own spooky season reading list, of course! One that fully captures […]

It is somehow Fall already? (*cough*shenanigans*cough*) And you know what that means! Aside from cozy clothes, warm drinks, and a stunning atmosphere? Yup, you guessed it: a new list of releases that I’m looking forward to! This year, I actually have a lower reading goal than previous years, as I’ve been focusing on other aspects […]
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is about books with high book counts. I call these doorstops-in-training ‘chonky beasts,’ and I consider them adorable. So here are some books that I’m looking forward to reading, even if they’re a tad daunting.
