1989 + Romance Novels, Part One
First of all, I was not expecting so many people to love the folklore + Romance Novels posts (part one; part two) and I was really excited to see that. Secondly, Aarya asked me to make one for Red but I decided I should just work through them backwards chronologically. I’ve already done Lover (part…

Get to Know the Reviewer: 10 Things I Love in Books
I came across a one-star review from a person I’m Goodreads friends with of a book I was loving the other day that said, “I could barely get through it.” This got me wondering, how do we decide whose reviews we can trust? For me, I think it’s a two fold question. I trust several…

August ARCs: Marriage by Arrangement, You Had Me at Hola, and Like Lovers Do
I have really been blessed by the ARC gods, aka Netgalley and the publishers, Harlequin and Avon, and I’m excited to slightly belatedly talk to you about these three books I enjoyed! Marriage by Arrangement by Sophia Singh Sasson was my first book from the author, but I’m sure it won’t be the last. Just…

Checking In: Antiracism Work & Celebrating Black Joy
I said I was going to do this check in monthly and then I ghosted y’all in the month of July even though I thought about writing it a million times. July was a weird month with a lot of fun things and a lot of stress from still being in a pandemic. But setting…

July Wrap Up
I think this is the first time in a really long time I haven’t done a mid-month wrap up of the books I read this month. I read 21 books this month, which is two more than I read in June, so good job to myself. The reason I didn’t do a mid-month wrap up…

folklore + romance novels: part two
Welcome back! And welcome to a new month. August is here, which is wild. My nephew should arrive this month though so I am incredibly excited and EMERALD BLAZE will be in front of my eyeballs in 26 days!! I can’t wait. In the meantime, I’m still listening to the greatest surprise of my life…

folklore + romance novels: part one
Y’all, I haven’t had this much serotonin hanging out in my brain in MONTHS. When Taylor dropped this news last week I found out as I was walking into work so I literally walked in with my hand in front of my mouth (masked), shaking, and basically screamed at everyone once I got into the…

July ARCs: Hairpin Curves, Paradise Cove, & Sweetest in the Gale
I real quick want to plug two other reviews in case you missed them for releases that also come out today: Sunday’s post included Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha, which I would highly recommend, and then late last month/early this month (time is fake), I posted my review of The Care and Feeding…

July ARCs: More than Maybe, A Touch of Stone and Snow, & Deal with the Devil
Y’all, there are a lot of books that have come out this month! I hope my reviews can help you figure out where to prioritize your money/library requests based on your tastes, but I’ll be honest, these three were all pretty good depending on what you want! More than Maybe by Erin Hahn was my…
