I think it’s probably no surprise by now that books have a habit of sort of languishing, shall we say, on my TBR. Chilling. Taking their time. Enjoying the view. And speaking of enjoying the view, it’s probably also no surprise that many of them end up there thanks to their stunning cover. I mean, […]
It’s no secret that I absolutely LOVE books that involve superpowers. Any sort of superpower, whether it’s the traditional superhero book or magic or just amazing people who are obviously superheroes whether they know it or not. It may surprise some of you, but I’m a very normal, non-super human. Trust me, no one’s more […]
Romantasy is what you get when romance and fantasy begrudgingly set aside their rivalry and make a love-child that blends magic with stabbiness . . . but in a steamy way? I confess that I used to think that romantasy wasn’t my thing, even though it’s hard to imagine that was ever the case. Because […]
I feel like novellas are really trending lately, and why shouldn’t they? Sometimes readers are busy (rare, but sure, nerds have lives too) and there’s nothing better than a short, bite-sized book to satisfy your reading needs. I confess that I used to have my doubts about novellas, too. How can an author possibly tell […]
New years mean different things to everyone. Sometimes new resolutions. Sometimes the marking of new opportunities. And sometimes just one step closer in the march to the endless, inevitable void that some call the future. But for bookwyrms? New years mean new books, which means new authors to discover! Also, maybe (probably) some of the […]
Let’s Talk Bookish is a weekly meme, hosted by Aria @ Book Nook Bits, where we discuss certain topics, share our opinions, and spread the love by visiting each other’s posts. This week’s Let’s Talk Bookish topic is books to read by the fire . . . which of course always makes me think of cozy […]
I think we can all agree that 2023 didn’t exactly go to plan. It started off perfectly fine, as far as years go, but went off the rail somewhere along the way, and we didn’t quite do all the many well-intentioned things we’d intended. You know, like reading all the books. Okay, sure, we probably […]
It’s that time of year! You know the one. Where I have to somehow narrow 170 books down to, like, a couple dozen to present you with my favorite reads from the past year. Nothing like providing me with Herculean feats, right? I’m pretty sure I should get, like, demigod powers after this. Just saying. […]
Oh yeeeah, it’s time for Fall TBRs. You know what that means! Spooky stories, cozy romances, weird paranormal stuff, and, most importantly, a fresh start with a group of books that, let’s face it, you’ll probably completely ignore in favor of all the books that weren’t on your TBR. What? Just me? Pffft, I refuse […]
It’s that time of year! Today is Valentine’s Day, when love is in the air amongst all those hopeful singles and new couples who still have something to prove. To translate that for all you old married couples like hubby and I, it’s time to argue over who has to take the offspring to her […]
