July Wrap Up
I read 25 books in July. It seems like I avoided the summer slump I’ve experienced the last two years, so that’s exciting. I read a lot of really amazing books too and several ARCs that I haven’t gotten to share my reviews of quite yet. I went on vacation and spent a lot of…

ARC Reviews: The MASH Up, Destination Funeral, and One for the Road
Y’all, these three books delivered a lot of fun, a lot of melancholy, and a lot of self-reflection somehow. I think all three of these books are pretty fantastic and I would absolutely recommend. The MASH Up is Laura Marie Meyer’s debut and if this is where she’s starting, I can’t wait to see where…

ARC Reviews: Blood Bound, Sea of Charms, and The Grump Whisperer
I am so excited to tell you about four books today! If you’re looking at the image and the title, you’re probably confused about how we’re getting to four, but I also DNF’d an ARC, unfortunately. So the books we’ll be discussing today are Blood Bound by Ellis Hunter, a romantasy, Sea of Charms by…

June Wrap Up
I was absolutely swamped in June with plans every single weekend, which resulted in me neglecting the blog so terribly. I apologize for that, but also, don’t be alarmed if that happens again in July. The good news is that I did not neglect my reading (shout out to audiobooks, as per usual). I read…

Catch Up ARC Reviews: Going Bicoastal, Honey, and Total Dreamboat
I’ve decided I need to get serious about tackling my backlist ARCs. I lasted on this project for approximately 10 days and have since derailed myself and have been reading pretty random books, mostly new ones. Hopefully writing these reviews will get me excited about my project again. Let us all cross our fingers. Anyway,…

2026 Releases ARC Reviews: The Art of Loving You, Echoes of Insurrection, and Good at Being Alive
This is such a weird mix of books, I feel like. The Art of Loving You by Natasha Bishop and Good at Being Alive by Elizabeth O’Roarke are both contemporary romances with grief elements, so they have that in common, I suppose. And then Echoes of Insurrection is just my little outlier. Regardless, those are…

ARC Reviews: Stranger Things Have Happened, An Ordinary Sort of Evil, and Dolly All the Time
I have been so fortunate with the ARCs I’ve had access to lately and these three were all winners! Stranger Things Have Happened was my second book by Kasie West and solidified that she’s going to be an auto-read author from me because I am truly vibing with her writing style. An Ordinary Sort of…

April Wrap Up
This is going to need to be a rapid fire wrap up because I decided I wanted to do a 30 books in 30 days challenge for myself because… I don’t really know, actually. But I succeeded! So I have 30 books to rapidly tell you about so let’s tackle them, shall we?

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…
