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…

Catch Up ARC Reviews: It’s a Love Story, Ladies in Hating, and An Academic Affair
This was a great batch of ARCs. I really enjoyed all three of my main reviews, though, there’s also a bonus DNF review tacked on at the end. It’s a Love Story by Annabel Monaghan, Ladies in Hating by Alexandria Vasti, and An Academic Affair by Jodi McAlister are all books I received e-book ARCs…

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…

Tier Ranking the 2025 Releases I Read from Sept-Dec
We’re nearly there, wrapping up my full reading year, but I have a few more posts I feel like have to be done before we can officially move on. I read 38 2025 releases in the last four months of the year, which is quite a few, though less than in the second third if…

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?

2025 ARC Reviews: The Heartbreak Hotel, The Brave and the Reckless, and Totally and Completely Fine
I’m so behind in giving y’all these reviews, it’s honestly absurd. I read The Heartbreak Hotel by Ellen O’Clover prior to its release, which was quite the accomplishment, considering how behind I am with my ARCs this year. And yet, I’m writing this review a full two months later. Oops. I also ordered a copy…

October Wrap Up
You know, this year has felt like the equivalent of about five years. Like, what do you mean Onyx Storm came out in January?? But also, I am genuinely shocked that it’s already November. Time is a construct, truly. Not real. Anyway, setting aside my complete bewilderment over how time works, let’s talk about the…

Sports Romance ARC Reviews: Sweet Thing, The Game Plan, and Only on Gameday
I’m not sure why, but I’ve really been in a sports romance mood recently and have been picking them up more often than I usually do. I’m also still not out of the single parent romance situation, which may be why Sweet Thing by Kate Meader worked so fantastically well for me. I am so…
