    March Wrap Up

    We have survived another month of 2026, my friends! I have run away from North Carolina, where the pollen is trying to murder me, and am hiding in my home state as I write this monthly wrap up. I am so excited to talk about the books I read and loved this past month, even…

    Books with Flowers on the Cover (ARC Reviews): One & Only, Anderson in Bloom, and No Place Like You

    This is a really excellent round up of three books that I enjoyed quite a bit and each and every one is already out because of course they are. First up, we have One & Only by Maurene Goo, which is her first adult novel and it was just as captivatingly written as her YA…

  • February Wrap Up

    Hi friends! Time went so quickly in February for the most part. I’m really excited that the days are getting a little longer, especially because my work commute for the past two weeks has been very far, which has left me driving home in the dark for part of the way. In March, I’ll get…

    I did just turn on the air conditioner last night, but it still seems weird to be talking about Spring when I look outside my window and still just see brown.

    Catch Up ARC Reviews: We Who Will Die, The Seven Rings, and And They Lived Happily Ever After

    Will I ever timely review my ARCs again? Who is to say? But in the meantime, I hope y’all enjoy reading my reviews of these books. I received review copies of both the e-book and the audiobook of We Who Will Die by Stacia Stark, and I did do a mixed format reading of We…

    January Wrap Up

    January is two weeks past us and I’m just now sitting down to write this wrap up. That’s more of a testament to how many other things have been capturing my attention than anything else, but I do hate being this off schedule. I also just made a list of all the ARCs I’ve read…

    Most Anticipated Book Releases of 2026

    This post is certainly heavily weighted toward the beginning of the year, but that’s just how things work with publishing, I feel like. Anyway, I’m quite excited to talk about these 12 books and throw in a couple of books that I’m hoping come out at some point. So let’s hop to it, shall we?
