  • Reading Rush TBR

    The Reading Rush is taking place from July 22-July 28th, was formerly called Booktubeathon, and is the creation of Ariel Bisset and Raeleen. They’ve created this website where you can earn badges, which is basically the greatest because ya girl is super externally motivated so fingers crossed I actually accomplish some things this week.

    June Wrap Up, Part Two

    This year is half over and I know I feel this sense of shock every year, but wow. So much has happened since the beginning of this year that it’s wild to me that it’s only been six months AND it’s wild to me that it’s already been six months. At this point I’ve posted

  • Try a Chapter: Romantic Suspense

    I really had fun doing my last try a chapter tag and I enjoyed Shadow and Ice, the book I wound up choosing. Since I’ve now finished with it, I thought I would jump into another try a chapter tag, but with a different genre. I’m very much in a romantic suspense mood at the

  • Try a Chapter Tag: Fantasy Edition

    I just finished reading Maybe in Another Life by Taylor Jenkins Reid and even though I’m in the middle of like six other things, none of them are quite calling to me. I can’t quite decide what I’m in the mood for either and lately I’ve been to the bookstore a few too many times

  • June Wrap Up, Part One

    If you’re wondering, yes, I’ve basically got “You Need to Calm Down” on repeat because Taylor Swift is actually the most amazing human in the entire world.

  • Smutathon Wrap Up

    I probably should have included a disclaimer on my TBR that I really don’t love the name of this readathon, but, well, I did not. So here we are and there’s my disclaimer. I should also note that I really just read the same variation of heat levels that I normally do this week, but

  • Psy-Changeling: A Series Review

    So, here’s the thing, I’ve been trying to figure out how to write this post since I finished Ocean Light last year on August 17. I started Slave to Sensation on June 3, 2018 and finished Silver Silence on July 22, 2018. I then had an agonizing waiting period for my next Audible credit, but
