    Tier Ranking the 2022 Releases I Read from Sept. – Dec.

    I’ve decided to embrace the tier ranking system so that I don’t have to actually try and separate out my feelings on all of the books that I feel very average about. So what we’re going to have instead today are tiers! I have no idea how this will go, so if y’all would please…

    2022 Goal Check In & Setting 2023 Intentions

    2022 was a really interesting year, one that I still haven’t quite determined how I feel about it. Professionally, there was a lot that happened. Personally, there wasn’t a ton that happened, though I did get to spend a lot of time with my friends and family. And reading wise, I feel like it was…

    December Wrap Up & January TBR

    Y’all, 2023 is HERE and that is weird and wild. But while I’m working on content that is both wrapping up 2022 and looking ahead at 2023, I also need to actually conclude my wrap up posts of the year and thus, here is my December Wrap Up. I read 23 books in December, so…

  • Most Anticipated Books of 2023

    Most Anticipated Books of 2023

    Honestly, it was rather difficult for me to pick a list of ten books for this list. My Most Anticipated Books for the whole year is usually the list I try to prioritize the most so I want these books to be ones where I’m genuinely like jumping up and down begging for an ARC…

    Fall Quarter Favorites

    I know everyone is releasing their favorite books of the year posts, but I have to squeeze in my final quarter of 2022 favorites real quick first! I just feel like I have so much to talk about at the end and beginning of the year every time and it’s made worse because of how…

    Favorite Books of 2022

    I cannot believe it’s already 2023. Like, where did the time go? I haven’t the slightest, personally. 2022 was a weird reading year for me. Or maybe just a weird year, it’s hard to say. Regardless, I feel like my reading mood was just a bit off and I think the difficulty I had in…

  • Favorite New/New to Me Authors Found in 2022

    Favorite New/New to Me Authors Found in 2022

    One of the things I love to do is keep track of the new authors I find throughout the year and then it’s neat to look back to past years and see when I first discovered my favorites. This year is a little strange because I have been pretty awful at continuing to read from…

    Checking In on My Most Anticipated Lists

    I really wish I was coming to you to report that since I wrote my Check In at the middle of the year I have managed to reach the five books that I hadn’t yet. Instead, I can report that I read one additional book. But anyway, let’s check in with everything!

    ARC Reviews: Built to Last, Mixed Signals, and Kiss Her Once for Me

    I am fairly certain I’m not reviewing any Harper Collins titles, but if I’m wrong, please let me know. Also, I’m very sorry for how delayed these reviews are in getting out because I really enjoyed Built to Last by Erin Hahn, Mixed Signals by B. K. Borison, and Kiss Her Once for Me by…
