TBR Status: 2 1/2 books shy of rising up and becoming a brutal overlord. As such, I’ve tried to slow down my book acquisition accordingly. The operative word there being trying. I never said succeeding, because … well, here we are, right? I also totally confess that I have a stack of books that I […]
Listen. I’m not even going to pretend that this week’s Top Ten Tuesday is going to be anywhere near ten anything. I saw the prompt. I laughed at the prompt. My TBR rose up, laughed, and threatened my existence and everything I hold dear. It was a jolly good time. I usually at least try […]
TBR Status: 5 books shy of angry rage monster. Which means that, obviously, I’m totally safe to get a few more books, right? Is … is that not the takeaway here? That’s what I’m going with. Normally, I don’t have much of a physical haul every month, but February was special. Mostly because my husband, […]
Psst. Allow me to tell you a secret: I’m horribly behind on my ARC reading. Okay, listen, I never said it was a great secret. Or even much of a secret. Hey! I hear you laughing there behind your screen. Fine, so everyone probably already knows that I’m a teensy bit behind and it’s not […]
Me, deciding whether to join: I mean, it’s not like I actually read nonfiction that often, so where will I even get book ideas from? Me, later, scouring my shelves: Where did all this nonfiction come from?! Must’ve been the aliens, those sneaky little buggers. To be fair, I actually didn’t know that philosophy and […]
It is hereby dubbed a Possibility Pile because, one, it’s super fun to say, and two, TBR sounds so … rigid. And let’s be honest, I’m absolute crap at sticking to TBRs, and there’s so much less pressure in a possibility pile. Instead of a regimented group of books I will read, I have a […]
It’s already that time of year for pumpkin foods, jack-o-lanterns, horror movies, and all the best creepy books. As such, Molly @ Silver Button Books is hosting Frightening Good Reads 2019, which focuses on reading all the best Halloweeny books during the season. Now that’s something I can totally get behind, which is why we’re […]
Come, dearies, and prepare yourselves for an ugly truth about the TBR: sometimes, just sometimes, it’s a place books go to die. More of a book graveyard, really. Or maybe not die. That’s a bit dramatic. It’s more like purgatory. Eventually, they’ll be read. Probably. What I’m saying is sometimes books get put on my […]
Not gonna lie, but I hit a reading slump HARD. Like Wile E. Coyote hitting a dang wall hard. And all you roadrunners know who you are, and I’m not even going to pretend not to be jealous of your amazing ability to, like, read copious amounts of books and stuff. So here we are […]
I’ve seen prediction posts from other bloggers, and I tend to shy away from them for one simple reason: I’m pretty bad at guessing. I mean, when it comes to plot points in books and movies, I’m golden. Nail it more times than not. I even have this uncanny ability to know who’s going to […]
