    Catch Up ARC Reviews – Historical Edition:

    l come to you bearing three very overdue historical ARC reviews of books I completed and one DNF review for a graphic novel, that I unfortunately, did not finish. Each of these books was provided to me via Netgalley from the publisher for review and I read the e-ARC copy of One Kiss to Desire…

    I am, as always, so grateful to the various publishers and Netgalley for giving me copies of these books early in exchange for my review. These three books are all out already so you can pick any of them up. I read my e-ARC of Harlem Rhapsody and also listened to a couple chapters here…

    Most Anticipated Reads: ARC Edition – Finlay Donovan Digs Her Own Grave, Promise Me Sunshine, and The King’s Messenger

    Y’all, I was so lucky to receive ARCs of three of the books I’m most excited about and, of course, I’m late getting the reviews to you, but still within the week so honestly, I think that’s a win. Especially since I currently have the flu (?) and feel like I’m dying. So, quick PSA…

    #SnowInLoveBingo Wrap Up

    Well… Y’all. I did not get black out. I didn’t read for two prompts, although realistically, I could shift over one and say that I just didn’t finish one prompt. Yeah, okay, we’re going to do that. Still failed my own personal goal, especially since I really wanted to read through these 25 prompts twice.…

    February Wrap Up

    Well… We made it through month two of the year! This was a very rough month for me, but I watched so much reality television and today, on March 2nd, as I write this, I am feeling better. I would not say I’ve managed to get fully back to my preferred state of being, but…

    #SpringIntoLoveBingo Announcement and TBR

    I hope y’all are excited about #SpringIntoLoveBingo because I definitely am! Somehow #SnowInLoveBingo wound up being a real challenge for me so I’m hoping that I’ll do better with #SpringIntoLoveBingo. If you’re unfamiliar with this seasonal bingo, myself, Dani, and Aarya put together these prompts every season (except summer) and then my sister, Sarah, illustrates…

    January 2025 ARCs, Pt. 2: Give Me Butterflies, Earl Crush, and I Think They Love You

    I am truly so grateful to publishers and Netgalley for the opportunity to read as many new books as I do and I’m even more grateful because all three of these books were smash hits for me. Give Me Butterflies was my first book by Jillian Meadows and not only is the cover absolutely stunning,…

    January Wrap Up

    Well, I (and you, if you’re reading this) survived January 2025! One month down. Do I keep having to remind myself that Rep TV, Debut TV, and TS12 will come eventually so there are things to look forward to so I don’t just fall into a full on depressive episode? Yes. I am doing all…

    Try a Chapter Tag with My February ARCs

    Y’all know I’m almost always late with getting my ARC reviews up prior to the book being released so I thought it might be fun to do a try a chapter with the six books that I have early copies of that come out in February so we can both get some idea of what…
