Knitting, Beards, and Tennessee: What I Almost Missed by Not Reading Penny Reid
I think the first time I came across Penny Reid’s name was in this Smart Bitches Trashy Books post in which Truth or Beard was on sale. I read the synopsis and looked at the cover and thought, “Cute cover. That could be good, but I don’t like facial hair.” SO I SKIPPED THE BOOK.

I’m participating in Tag Wednesday for the first time! Tag Wednesday is something that Sam on ThoughtsonTomes hosts and there is a Goodreads group as well. This week the topic is to select your Top Five second book in a series. I’m so excited and so nervous because I could only think of one off

Book Talk: The Underground Railroad
I really don’t even have words for this book. When I started the Pop Sugar Challenge at the beginning of the year and set out my TBR of what I was planning to read for each challenge, I was stumped on what to put down for the “read a book about a difficult topic” one

Library Haul and Reading the First Chapter
I lost control at the library, who is surprised? And now I have eleven books out from the library not counting the audiobook and two ebooks I have checked out via Overdrive. Whoops.

A Book in which Samantha Brinkman Throws Morality and Professional Responsibility Out the Window
Let me begin by apologizing for the late post and follow up that apology with another apology because I’m about to tell you about a book that the more I think about it the more annoyed I get. You may have noticed that I’ve been studying to take the Bar Exam, which is both why

July 2017 Wrap Up, pt. 1
Hi, y’all! I was starting to think about my post recapping what all I’ve read this month and then I realized that I’ve read too many books already (15) and that there was no way anyone would make it through a post with twenty books. So, here are the first ten books I’ve read in

The Best of the First Half (ish) of 2017
The bar exam is in four days. I’m freaking out and trying not to so here’s yet another, Jenica is procrastinating blog post. Today is July 21, 2017, which means it is a bit past the halfway point of 2017, which is wild because where in the world did the time go? So for today’s

Post-Bar Exam TBR
Y’all, the Bar Exam is on Tuesday so obviously I’m writing this blog post right now instead of shoving more elements into my mind because sometimes there’s just no other option. If you’re friends with me on Goodreads, you may have noticed that I really haven’t read anything but romance since… last summer, with a
