ContemporaryAThon Wrap Up
Day One: Monday, September 17, 2018 So I wound up not having to drive an hour and a half to court today and instead would up only driving about an hour round trip. I did spend most of that time listening to The Poet X, but I’ve discovered that I can’t listen to it on…

Trope Talk: Friends to Lovers, Part Two
As I said in Part One, friends to lovers is absolutely one of my favorite tropes and this time around, I’m talking about the friends to lovers novels where one person has been in love with the other one for a while, but for whatever reason thinks they can never be anything. 1) Scoring Off…

Book Tag: Out of My Comfort Zone
Emma from emmmabooks created this tag and it seemed really fun so… Here we are! To begin, Emma says you have to create a rule for yourself that you’re going to eliminate a genre/category that you talk about the most to challenge yourself to reach for books outside of your usual. So, obviously, I have…

September Wrap Up, Part One
September is already half over? How is this possible? On the bright side, my birthday is twelve days away! My sister actually already gave me my birthday gift of two books I picked out while I was home over Labor Day so I’m the proud owner of The Nightingaleby Kristen Hannah (finally) and A Secret…

Contemporary-A-Thon TBR
I really enjoy participating in ContemporaryAThon even though my work kind of gets in the way of me reading seven books in seven days a lot of times. If you aren’t aware, Natasha from myreadingisodd, Chelsea from chelseadollingreads, and Julie from pagesandpens host this readathon. This particular round is from September 17th-23rd and there are…

Latinx Book Bingo TBR
Another Bingo challenge begins on September 15th and lasts until October 15th! This time it’s Latinx Book Bingo to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, though I think Latinx Book Bingo intends to encompass more than just Spanish speaking humans and I know it intends to focus on Intersectionality. Here is the link to the Latinx Book…

Trope Talk: Friends to Lovers
Friends to lovers is one of my absolute favorite tropes and one that I love in most, if not all, of it’s forms. Since the last (and first) Trope Talk I did was on one of my least favorite tropes, Second Chance Romance, I thought I would talk about the estranged friends finding their way…

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…
