    Catch Up ARC Reviews: Always Her Cowboy, Love at 350, and I Did Something Bad

    As y’all may know, I’m terrible at reading my ARCs on time, though I do my best to make sure they’re read during the calendar year that they are released. Sometimes though, I fail. And these are three books that are INCREDIBLY overdue. First up, we have Always Her Cowboy by Addison Fox, which came…

    ARC Reviews: The Anatomy of Magic, Married with Benefits, and Love Felt Like This

    I really took a break from writing reviews or posting anything in September, but now I’m back to try and catch up. I did so much reading last month so I’ve got several reviews to catch up on. First up, we have some banger reads to talk about. I had e-ARCs via Netgalley of each…

  • September Wrap Up

    September Wrap Up

    I read 33 books in the month of September… It was a lot. I participated in two readathons, which is why there are some books that you will see here that are strange choices for me. Also, technically I read 34 books because I also read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, but I decided against counting…

    Tier Ranking the 2026 Releases I Read from May – August

    I read 43 books released in 2026 in some format between May and August, which feels like a lot. It is, actually, more books that I’m tier ranking this set of four months than what I ranked in the first four months, so I guess I’m not completely crazy. I’ve decided that it would be…

    Catch Up ARC Reviews: Love Interest, The Summer Girl, and The Secret Crush Book Club

    This post is also going to include two DNFs, which is quite unfortunate, but at the same time, I’m really glad that I’m making progress of my old ARCs because I do want my Netgalley percentage to eventually get up to (and stay at) 80% instead of where I hover around 75-76%. Anyway, the great…

    September TBR + New Releases

    We’re a little ways into September at this point, so maybe it’s too late to share this post, but I am so excited about September releases that I simply have to put my excitement into one place! Also, September is my birth month so another reason to make sure it’s properly documented and celebrated. Anyway,…

  • August Wrap Up

    August Wrap Up

    August is the first month this year that I haven’t reached 20 books (19) and if that’s not a sign of how exhausting August was, I really don’t know what else would do for that. I did a lot of driving in August, so on the one hand, yay for audiobook hours and on the…

    ARC Reviews: Maybe This Once, Happy Ending, In Her Spotlight

    I have two books that I absolutely adored and one book that I sort of wish I would have DNF’d, but I decided I didn’t like it at the very end, so… Here we are! With no hints, I’m just going to tell you that the good news is that you can read each of…

    ARC Reviews: By the Bootstraps, Archangel’s Eternity, and The Cozy Nook Bookshop

    I had this idea in my head that I was going to write a full stand alone series review for Guild Hunters where I would talk about Archangel’s Eternity, but ultimately, I have too many emotions and not enough words for a standalone series review. But I am so excited to talk about these three…
