  • Most Anticipated Books of Fall

    FALL IS NIGH. I am so excited. I am very much not a summer girlie so I, for one, cannot wait for Fall. I want the leaves changing, more apple cider donuts I can’t actually eat, and all the apple crisp macchiatos my wallet can afford. I want to carve pumpkins with my nephew and…

  • I Fell Down a Single Dad Romance Rabbit Hole and Here’s What I Thought

    I Fell Down a Single Dad Romance Rabbit Hole and Here’s What I Thought

    Last month, I got the sudden overwhelming urge to reread Heartless by Elsie Silver, which sent me on a path of wanting to read so many single dad trope books and I read four before the fourth led me on a detour of some romantic suspense books that we may examine at a later date.…

  • July Wrap Up & August TBR

    July Wrap Up & August TBR

    So, I read entirely too much in July. Like genuinely. Im’ not exactly sure what happened, but I did some serious series devouring in two specific series and I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to talk about certain books that I have more to say than others so don’t be surprised if…

  • From the Vault Songs + Romance Recs, Part One

    From the Vault Songs + Romance Recs, Part One

    Taylor Swift has been blessing us with some additional songs with each re-release and randomly a couple of songs for Midnights and Lover and I am certainly not complaining. Today because I’m still in my Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) era, I’m going to cover the six vault tracks from SN (TV) as well as “All…

    Contemporary ARC Reviews: Playing for Keeps, Best Man with Benefits, and The Best Laid Plans

    Alright y’all, I have been dragging my feet at reading ARCs, let alone reviewing them, but I’m here today because I have miraculously read three contemporary romances I had as ARCs this week! I’m in a very mood reading sort of zone, tbh, and I’ve been reading a lot in July (just like zero obligatory…

  • Speak Now + Romance Novels, Part Two

    Speak Now + Romance Novels, Part Two

    If you haven’t been here for two years, you’re probably confused about how in the world this is part two when there hasn’t been a part one. But there was. On March 21, 2021. I’m so sorry this second part has come SO much later. Anyway, here’s the link to Part One and given how…

  • June Wrap Up and July TBR

    June Wrap Up and July TBR

    I genuinely cannot believe how quickly June went by. I didn’t really do any of the things that I needed or even intended to do, but, well, it is what it is. I have been struggling to feel very motivated to accomplish anything lately, which is not great. But c’est la vie. Hopefully that feeling…

    Favorites of Q2

    Not to be a broken record, but how in the world have three more months gone by? I think I’m just starting to feel my age because I swear time never went this quickly as a kid. But regardless, here we are. In the last three months, I have read 68 books. I still have…

  • Mid-Year Freak Out Tag

    Mid-Year Freak Out Tag

    I really do love doing this tag. This started on YouTube with Chami and Ellie, but slowly over time, it’s really been modified time and time again by various creators. I’ve modified it some myself, but I’m really excited to talk about these questions!

  • Assorted ARC Reviews: Funny Guy, Tell Me Everything, Once More with Feeling, and The Atlas Paradox

    This is just a set of reviews of ARCs that I’ve finished (or DNF’d) and need to tell you about so that Netgalley doesn’t think I’m quite as bad at this as I actually am. The list these books are listed in the title is more or less a ranked list, if I’m being honest,…
