    Ripped Bodice Bingo Wrap Up

    Well, in what should surprise no one if you’ve followed along with my wrap ups, my summer of Nalini Singh binging did not lead to me completing the board, but honestly it’s impressive how many I managed to slot in. Interestingly there was only one new to me non-Nalini Singh even though I definitely had…

    Most Anticipated: Fall Edition

    Fall doesn’t start, technically, until September 21st, but listen, it’s my birthday month, I’ve got matte black nails, and Starbucks already started PSL season. Also I just bought a sweater at Target even though I live in North Carolina so I’ve got a good month and a half before the weather cooperates even mildly with…

    August Wrap Up, Part Two

    And to cap off the month, here we have the final books I read in the month! This post is actually much longer than Part One because I finally forced myself to stop re-reading Nalini Singh’s Psy-Changeling series (although, I did read the latest release, Ocean Light and I just want to say that it…

    Try a Chapter: Blue Romance Novels Edition

    I don’t know why I have five romance novels with blue spines, but I do, so I thought, why not make a ridiculous Try a Chapter post about them? I am really excited to read each of these books, but have been in this weird mood that has me not reaching for anything because I…

  • September TBR

    September TBR

    Just to check in, last month I put six books on my TBR and read two out of the six. So that’s terrible. But I really am trying to reduce my TBR because it’s overwhelming. I finally made a spreadsheet and I have over 200 books I haven’t read. First of all, how? Second of…

    August Wrap Up, Part One

    Whoops. This post is a lot late. My bad. I’ve been doing awful at sticking to a blogging schedule, but I swear I am trying! August was pretty busy for me though, so that didn’t really happen. And I’m still working on my Psy-Changeling series review post, so that’s seven books in the first half…

    Books I Love with Tropes I Hate: Second Chance

    Tropes in romance novels are honestly some of my favorite things. If there was enough time in the world, I would like to devour every single book with a fake relationship because it is the greatest trope in the history of the world. But there are some tropes that I just really don’t like. That…

    July Wrap Up, Part Two

    I read an inordinate amount of books this month and I’m honestly not even sure how? Because of that, this Wrap Up is going to be a little bit different in that I’ve chosen not to review each book of the Psy-Changeling series by Nalini Singh I read because I’m going to be making an…

  • August TBR

    August TBR

    I gave up on TBRs a while ago, but I have decided that I’m making it a goal to read five physical books from my TBR and a special book to celebrate Women in Translation Month. So, this TBR is happening, y’all. I insist. 1. Leah on the Offbeatby Becky Albertalli Look, I have no…

    #SmutAThon Wrap Up

    Day One: July 9, 2018 I left for Raleigh straight from court today and I should have used my drive to start listening to Firelight, but instead I couldn’t resist listening to more of Bonds of Justice because Nalini Singh owns my soul. Or something. The eighth book in the Psy-Changling series, this book follows…
